Route Setting Information

Route search specifications

Your Navigation System sets a route to your desti- nation by applying certain built-in rules to the map data. This section provides some useful information about how a route is set.

When a route is calculated, the route and voice guidance for the route is automati- cally set. Also, for day or time traffic regu- lations, only information about traffic regulations at the time when the route was calculated is shown. One-way streets and street closures may not be taken into con- sideration. For example, if a street is open during the morning only, but you arrive later, it would be against the traffic regula- tions so you cannot drive along the set route. When driving, please follow the actual traffic signs. Also, the system may not know some traffic regulations.

Update Navigation DVDs are available for purchase from your local Pioneer dealer that includes the most current map and point of interest information. Contact your local Pioneer dealer for details.

About the route condition

When the calculation of only one route is set, you can search a route option by combining the fol- lowing conditions.

How to set the calculation conditions Page 31

For example, when “Fastest” and “Avoid Free- way” (“On”) are combined, the route, which avoids freeway, and has the shortest travel time, will be calculated and displayed on the screen.

Condition 1 :whether to put priority on the distance, or time

Shortest :

Calculate a route with the shortest distance to your destination as a priority.

Fastest :

Calculate a route with the shortest travel time to your destination as a priority.

Condition 2 :whether to use freeway or not

Avoid Freeway :

Calculate a route that avoids freeway. (A route using the freeway may be set if your destination is far away.)

The system assumes the driver deviated either intentionally or inadvertently from the route and searches for another route (intelligent rerouting). Depending on the situation, the system may search a new route that does not return to the original one.

The calculated route is one example of the route to your destination decided by the Navi- gation System whilst taking the type of streets or traffic regulations into account. It is not nec- essarily an optimum route. (In some cases, you may not be able to set the streets you want to pass. If you want to pass a certain street, set the way point on that street.)

The route set by your Navigation System is based on the assumption that the driver does not know the area. Thus, the streets known to local drivers, such as small streets or special roads, may not be used for the set route.

Some route options may become the same route. If visiting points are set, or the route is
