Finding alternative routes5. 11 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 gas. • You want to avoid a difficult intersection 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 XL 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 roadblock or a line of traffic ahead. You then have to choose how much of the route ahead you want to avoid. Choose from the different options: 100m, 500m, 2000m, 5000m. Your XL 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.
12 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, Favorite, Point of Interest and Point on map. Your XL will calculate a new route to your destination that passes the location you chose. Unlike your final destination, your XL does not inform you when you pass by this location. Using this button, you can only travel via one location. If you want to pass more than one, use an Itinerary. Recalculate original Tap this button to return to the original route without deviations to avoid roadblocks or traveling 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 avoid from a list of the roads on your route. Minimize delays Tap this button to recalculate your route so that it avoids traffic problems as much as possible. Your XL will check if there are any traffic problems on your route and work out the best route to avoid the problems. Note: This button is only available with TomTom Traffic enabled.
