Routing

Tap Routing to access routing options. RV routes favor major roads and avoid sharp turns, U-turns, and urbanized areas wherever possible. In the United States only, RV routes completely avoid high- ways that have bridge heights under 12’6” (bridge heights are not considered on smaller, local roads however).

Quickest routing is based on the most practical route in terms of road quality, terrain, and urban/ rural. Shortest travels the least distance where possible while maintaining some level of practicality. Or choose Avoid Major Roads.

Toll Roads (U.S. only) — Select Always Avoid,

Use if Necessary, or No Restriction.

London Congestion Zone Warning — (U. K. only) Check to have CoPilot provide a warning when your trip will pass through a congestion zone (gives you the option to route around it) or when your destination is within a congestion zone (gives you the option to continue after warning).

Take a Break every ___ hours for ___ hours

— Adjusts trip ETA to reflect stops for breaks.

International Borders Open — (U.S. only) If checked, routes may cross international borders to provide better routing. If this option is not checked, no borders will be crossed.

Advanced Routing Options:

1)Tap Advanced. Use the advanced routing options to completely change how CoPilot calculates routes. Advanced options include some Basic options along with avoid/ favor preferences and average speed settings for each road type CoPilot uses to for route calculations.

2)Tap New to create a Profile.

3)Enter a name for this profile.

4)Select a Vehicle Type and Routing Type.

5)Choose a Toll Roads option (U.S. only).

6)(U.K. only) Check London Congestion Zone Warning if desired.

7)Check Take a break if desired, and set a break time.

8)Check International Borders Open to have routes cross borders where practical (U.S. only).

9)Set Road Type Preferences. Select a road speed and an avoid/favor level for each road type. There are five levels of avoid/favor for each road type. Note that a road type that is heavily avoided will not be completely excluded — CoPIlot will still use that road type if there is no other efficient alternative.

Avoid

Discourage

Neutral

Encourage

Favor

NOTE: Even small changes to the avoid/favor balance will have a significant effect on how CoPilot calculates routes.
