.If the system cannot calculate a detour with
the specified conditions, it displays the
previous suggested route.
.If the vehicle is traveling very fast, the
detour route may start from a location that
the vehicle has already passed.
SEARCHING FOR DETOUR ROUTE
TAKING TRAFFIC INFORMATION INTO
CONSIDERATION
When a serious traffic event occurs on the
route, or if the system finds a faster route,
a detour alert will pop up automatically. If
the automatic alert is not noticed, a detour
can also be manually searched.
1. Push.
2. Highlight [Traffic Detour] and push
.
3. When the detour search is successful,detailed information about the detour
route (left screen) and the comparison
screen of the two routes (right screen)
are displayed.
*1Original route (yellow)
*2Detour route (pink)
*3The change of distance and esti-
mated travel time to destination
when the detour route is taken.
4. To accept the suggested detour route, highlight [Yes], and then push .
INFO:
.
If no route is set, or [Use Real Time Traffic
Information] is turned off, this function
cannot be operated.
.If a detour route is not selected and no
further action is performed, the detour route
will be automatically canceled.
.The detour suggestion can be retrieved even
after the message disappears by manually
selecting [Traffic Detour]. The system will
then search for the detour again and
suggests a detour if one is available at that
time.
.Without a subscription to a NavTraffic
broadcast, it will not be possible to get a
traffic detour or apply settings for functions
related to traffic information. A message
appears when a related menu item is
selected.
“Notes on NavTraffic information”
(page 10-14)
Automatic detour guidance
When [Auto Reroute] and [Use Real Time
Traffic Information] are turned on in the
detailed route settings, a message will
automatically pop up when the system
finds a detour.
“Detailed route settings” (page 5-26)

1. If a traffic jam or a serious trafficproblem occurs on the route while
driving along the suggested route, the
automatic detour route search starts
and a message pops up if a detour is
found.
2. To accept the suggested detour route, highlight [Yes] and push .
INFO:
.
If no operation is performed for one minute
after the message is displayed, the message
disappears. The detour will not be accepted,
and the current suggested route will remain
unchanged.

the guidance settings, the system will
announce voice guidance at the same time
that the message appears on the screen.

. [Shortest Route]:
Prioritizes by the shortest route.
INFO:
Only one of these conditions can be utilized at a
time.

calculation.
Basic operation:

3. Highlight [Other Routing Choices] and push .
4. Highlight the preferred condition and push . The indicator for the
selected condition illuminates.
5. If [Route Settings] is exited after chan- ging the settings, the system starts
calculating the route with the new
conditions. Available setting items
. [Minimize Toll Roads]:
Minimizes the use of toll roads.
. [Use Time Restricted Roads]:
Uses any roads subject to time restric-
tions.
. [Use Statistical Traffic Information]:
Uses statistical traffic information that
is stored in the map data.
. [Use Real Time Traffic Information]:
Uses the latest traffic information
received via the SiriusXM broadcast.
. [Use Avoid Area Settings]:
Enables the avoid area setting.
. [Use Ferries]:
Includes the use of ferries.
. [Use Learned Routes]:
Uses the roads that are most frequently
traveled with the help of self-learning
technology.
. [Auto Reroute]:
If the vehicle deviates from the sug-
gested route, the system automatically
recalculates a route that leads the
vehicle to the suggested route.
INFO:
.
The recalculated route may not be the
shortest route because the system priori-
tizes roads that are easy to drive for safety
reasons.
.If route conditions are set from [Route
Settings], all sections in the route are
subject to the same route conditions even
though different route conditions have been
set for different sections in [Edit/Add to
Route].
.If [Use Time Restricted Roads] is deacti-
vated, the system calculates a route without
any consideration of the regulations con-
cerning the time or day of the week.
Therefore, the suggested route may include
a road subject to traffic regulations con-
cerning the time or day of the week. When
driving along the route, always follow all
traffic regulations regardless of whether
[Use Time Restricted Roads] is set to on or
off.
.If the system cannot calculate any alter-
native routes, it displays the previous route.
.If the vehicle greatly deviates from the
suggested route, the system calculates a
new route.

.Statistical traffic information is based on
previous traffic data. When the traffic situa-
tion rapidly changes due to unexpected
accidents, construction work, traffic restric-
tions, emergencies, etc., the prediction
accuracy of the system may be reduced.
.Traffic jam information displayed on the
map screen is not statistical traffic informa-
tion.
.When [Use Statistical Traffic Information] is
turned on, the system may lead to a road
where a traffic jam occurs or to a detour
even though the shortest route does not
have a traffic jam.
.Even when [Use Real Time Traffic Informa-
tion] is turned on, if traffic information has
not been provided for the area, sometimes it
is possible that a detour will not be
indicated in a location where a traffic jam
occurs.
.The system may not lead to a detour if traffic
closure or a traffic jam occurs far from the
present location.
.The system calculates to reduce the time
required for the entire route from the start to
the destination. If there are no appropriate
routes, the system may lead to a route
where a traffic jam occurs instead of leadingto a detour.
.This system can learn and memorize the
route that is most frequently used. However,
despite driving on the same route several
times so that the system can learn the
route, the system may have difficulty learn-
ing the route under the following condi-
tions.
—[Use Time Restricted Roads] is set to on.
—[Use Real Time Traffic Information] is set
to on.
