Driving to Your Destination
Changing the Route Preference
The system lets you select the way you
want to drive to your destination. Select
Route Pref. on the
Calculate route to
screen by rotating the Interface Dial
knob.
• You can choose MAX or MIN for
four settings: Freeways, Toll
Roads, ETC Roads, and Ferries.
The route calculations for the current
selection will be displayed in the
upper right-hand corner of the screen.
NOTE:
If you select MIN or MAX of ETC
Roads as your route preference, the
system finds the route with as few
electronic toll collection (ETC) gates as
possible in MIN or as many ETC gates
as possible in MAX.
The generated route may not be the
route you would choose. For safety
reasons, the system generally applies the
following rules to your route:
• Shortcuts through residential areas
are avoided.
• Right turns are favored over left turns
or U-turns.
• Restricted turns (turns that cannot be
made during or at certain times of the
day) are not used.

Calculate route to screen, you can
view three possible routes to your
destination. You can also use the
Interface Dial to verify the areas

calculated based on the setup options in
Route Pref..
You can select one of the three routes
(1-3) by rotating the Interface Dial
knob. The system will calculate the
selected route and display the
map
screen.
NOTE:
• The driving distance and time
estimated for the various routes is
displayed.
• It is not unusual for the different
methods to pick the same route. Voice
commands cannot be used while the
system is calculating.
