U-turns are not used in routes (turning
around on a divided road is not consid-
ered a U-turn for the purpose of this sys-
tem).
—
Route planning can also be configured
to incorporate dimension, weight, and
freight hazard restrictions for maps that
contain such data.

Route Planning Method
You can change the route planning method.
The route calculation can be optimized for dif-
ferent situations and vehicle types by chan-
ging the planning method. The route planning
method types are as follows.
!
Fast
Calculates a route with the shortest travel
time to your destination as a priority. Usual-
ly the best selection for fast and standard
cars.
!
Easy
Results in a route with fewer turns and no
difficult maneuvers. With this option, you
can make this system to take, for example,
the freeway instead of a series of smaller
roads or streets.
!
Short
Calculates the route with the shortest dis-
tance to the destination as the priority.
Usually practical for slower vehicles. Rarely
practical to use to search for shorter routes
for normal vehicles regardless of the
speed.
!
Economical
Calculates a quick and save gas.
Off-road Navigation
You can enable or disable off-road navigation
which navigates between destinations in a
straight line.
Highways
You can decide whether to avoid freeways
when you are driving a slow car or you are tow-
ing another vehicle.
Period Charge
You can select whether to include toll roads
with restricted time access that allow you to
purchase a separate pass or vignette to extend
the length of time allotted for use. This option
can be enabled or disabled separately from
the toll road usage option.
Per-use Toll
You can decide whether to include toll roads
where there is a per-use charge. The naviga-
tion system includes toll roads by default.
Ferries
You can decide whether to include ferries. The
navigation system includes ferries by default.
Car Shuttle Trains
You can decide whether to include car shuttle
trains. Car shuttle trains are used to transport
vehicles for relatively short distances and they
usually connect places that are not easily ac-
cessible by road.
Carpool Lanes
You can decide whether to include carpool
and HOV lanes. The navigation system ex-
cludes carpool and HOV lanes by default.
Carpool and HOV lanes can be used if a given
number of passengers are traveling in the ve-
hicle.
Unpaved Roads
You can decide whether to include unpaved
roads. The navigation system excludes un-
paved roads by default.
