5.4.1.3 Economical
This setting is a wise combination of the previous two. Although basically going for
the fastest solution, if there is another route taking a bit more time but a lot less
distance compared to the fastest one, AVIC-S2 will choose this one instead to save
fuel.
5.4.2 Vehicle
You can set the type of the vehicle that matches your speed profile and route
preferences. Based upon this setting, some of the road types will be excluded from
the route, or some of the restrictions may not be taken into account.
5.4.3 Road types to include/exclude
To let the route fit your needs you can also set which road types are to be
considered for or to be excluded from the route if possible.
Note: Excluding a route is a preference. It does not guarantee that the road type will
always be excluded. If your destination can only be accessed using some of the
excluded road types, a warning icon will be shown on the Route Information screen
(Page 34), and the road not matching your preference will be displayed in alternate
color on the map.
5.4.3.1 Unpaved Roads
Unpaved roads are excluded by default, as they can be in a bad condition and you
usually cannot reach the speed limit on them.
5.4.3.2 Freeways
When driving a slow car or towing another vehicle, you may prefer not to take
freeways.
5.4.3.3 Ferries
The accessibility of temporary ferries is not necessarily included in the map data.
Furthermore you may need to pay fare, so you may consider disabling them from the
preset enabled status.
5.4.3.4 U-turns
Although displayed amongst road types, this is a type of action. Most drivers prefer
to replace them with a few normal left and/or right turns in the next few junctions, so
it is disabled by default.
Turning back on dual carriageways is not considered as a u-turn. A dual carriageway
or divided highway is a road or highway in which the two directions of traffic are
separated by a central barrier or strip of land.
