Route criteria
General information
You can influence the calculated route by
choosing certain route criteria. You can change

entering the destination and whenever the des-
tination guidance is active.
The route is planned according to fixed rules.
The road type is taken into account, e.g.
whether it is a highway or a winding road. As a
result, the routes recommended by the naviga-
tion system may not always be the same ones that you would choose based on personal expe-
rience.
The settings are stored for the remote control
currently in use.
