Detours

You can program CoPilot to make a detour around one or more selected roads on the calculated route, or to calculate a whole new alternate route.

Select Menu > Detour.

To route around a specifi c road, select Avoid Roads.

An itinerary of your journey will appear. Click on the road you would like to avoid then select Avoid Road.

CoPilot will take a few moments to calculate another route around the selected road, then an updated map

display of the new route will be generated. The difference in mileage and time that will result if the new route is accepted is displayed below the map.

For example: “< 1 mi / +2 mins” means that the new route is about one mile shorter but is estimated to take approximately two minutes longer to drive.

Click Accept, then press to close the itinerary window and CoPilot will begin guiding you along the new route.

If you decide not to use the new route, select Decline. CoPilot will then return to your original route. Press to close the itinerary window.
