122The following route criteria are available:
Dynamic navigation
Select  on or  off. The dynamic navigation function optimises a route plan by 
using the most current TMC traffic messages to recalculate routes and avoid 
traffic jams etc.
For more information about the dynamic navigation function, please refer to 
⇒ page 100.
Route options
If you select fast , the system will calculate a route that takes you to your desti-
nation as quickly as possible. If you select  short the system will calculate a 
route that is as short as possible.
Motorway
Comprising the options  include or exclude  from the route. By choosing  avoid 
Motorway , the system will attempt to plan a route without motorway 
sections. However, if the final destination is more than 300 km away, 
motorway sections will not  be avoided.
Ferry
Comprising the options  include or exclude  from the route. By choosing  avoid 
Ferry , the system will attempt to plan a route without using ferry connections.
Toll road
Comprising the options  include or exclude  from the route. By choosing  avoid 
toll road , the system will attempt to plan a route without using toll roads.
Time-restricted road
Comprising the options  include or exclude  from the route. If you select  avoid 
time-restricted road  the system will try to exclude such roads when calcu-
lating the route. However, only those roads stored on the navigation DVD as 
time-restricted roads  can be avoided.
When  avoid has been selected these roads will be avoided regardless of the 
time of day and the day of the week. This means that roads which are blocked  at night and therefore listed as time-restricted, will always be excluded from 
the route if this option is activated.
Season-restricted road
Comprising the options include
 or exclude  from the route. If you select  avoid 
season-restricted road the system will try to exclude such roads when calcu-
lating the route. However, only those roads stored on the navigation DVD as 
season-restricted roads  can be avoided.
When  avoid has been selected these roads will be avoided regardless of the 
season. If a road is, for example, closed in winter, it will be excluded in the 
route calculation even during the summer months.
Motorrail
Comprising the options  include or exclude  from the route. When you have 
selected  avoid Motorrail , the system will attempt to plan a route without 
using Motorrail sections. However, only those sections stored on the naviga-
tion DVD as Motorrail can be avoided.
Note
•If you would like to avoid a route criterion but this makes route guidance 
impossible, this criterion is still included when calculating the route (e.g. 
ferry to Ireland). A voice message will inform you of this.•If the navigation does not display a detour route, although dynamic navi-
gation function is on  and a traffic jam has been reported on the planned 
route, this is because the estimated time required for the detour is longer 
than the estimated time required for remaining on the route with the traffic 
jam.
