. [Auto Reroute]:
If the vehicle deviates from the suggested
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 on 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. There- fore, the suggested route may include a road
subject to traffic regulations concerning 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 alternative
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 information.
. 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 leading to a
detour.
