Finding alternative routes5.

Finding alternative routesOnce you have planned a route, you may want to change something about the 
route, without changing your destination.
Why change the route? 
Maybe for one of these reasons:
• You can see a roadblock or a line of traffic ahead.
• You want to travel via a particular location, to pick someone up, stop for 
lunch or fill up with petrol.
• You want to avoid a difficult j unction or a road you don’t like.
Find alterna-
tive...
Ta p   Find alternative...  in the Main Menu to change the route that is 
currently planned. 
Then tap one of the options below.
Calculate 
alternative
Tap this button to calculate an alternative to the route already planned. 
Your ONE will look for another route from your current location to your 
destination.
If you decide you would prefer to use the original route after all, tap 
Recalculate original . 
Why would I need to do this?
Apart from the roads near your position and near your destination, the new 
route will use totally different roads to reach your destination. This is an 
easy way of calculating a  totally different route. 
Avoid 
roadblock
Tap this button if you can see a roadbloc k or a line of traffic ahead. You then 
have to choose how much of th e route ahead you want to avoid.
Choose from the different options:  100m, 500m, 2000m, 5000m. Your ONE 
will recalculate your route avoiding the section of the route for the distance 
you selected. 
Don’t forget that once a new route is calculated, you may have to turn off 
the road you are on very soon.
If the roadblock suddenly clears, tap  Recalculate original to return to your 
original route.

Travel via...
Tap this button to change your route so that it passes a particular location, 
perhaps to pick someone up on the way.
You choose the location you want to pass in the same way as you choose a 
destination. So you can select from  all the same options: for example, 
Address , Favourite , Point of Interest  and Point on map .
Your ONE will calculate a new route to your destination that passes the 
location you chose. 
Recalculate  original
Tap this button to return to the original route without deviations to avoid 
roadblocks or travelling via particular locations. 
Avoid part of  route
Tap this button to avoid a part of the route. Use this button if you see that 
your route includes a road or junction you don’t like, or which is well-
known for traffic problems.
You then choose the road you want to av oid from a list of the roads on your 
route.
Minimise 
traffic delays
Tap this button to recalculate your rout e so that it avoids traffic problems as 
much as possible. Your ONE will check if there are any traffic problems on 
your route and work out the best  route to avoid the problems.
