6. Select the Reroute Option button on the screen. A

new screen appears on which you can set the

distance from the event that will trigger the

alternative route.

Check one of the following options:

Live Alert: With this option checked, the receiver

will search for a faster alternative route

whenever a Traffic event arises on your current

route. This will happen at the time the event is

received, regardless of your distance to the

event.

Dist. to event < 40 mi: With this option checked, the receiver will re-route you only if the

distance to this Traffic event, is less than 40 miles from your current location (not a point-

to-point distance but that measured along the route).

Dist. to event < 20 miles: Same as above for a distance of 20 miles.

Dist. to event < 10 miles: Same as above for a distance of 10 miles.

7. Select Save to confirm your choice and then Save again to return to your guidance screen.

Traveling with the Re-routing Mode On

The following will occur whenever a Traffic event that affects your route is received:

• The receiver will analyze the impact this event will have on your route.

• A “Re-calculating the route” message will pop up on the screen along with the reason for

the re-calculation.

• Once the alternate route has been computed, it will compare the alternative route with the

original route, and will decide which is the best route to follow, taking time and distance

into consideration.

• If the original route is still the best one to follow, the route will be unchanged, and the

time portion of the status bar will be updated to reflect the delay. The traffic icon will

appear in the lower right corner of the map display. Tapping this icon brings up a list of

the traffic events on the route.

• If the alternative route is the best route to follow, the receiver will start guiding you along

this route.

• The map screen will also show road signs corresponding to Traffic events, including those

not affecting the route.

• Events that affect your route will also appear as road signs in the maneuver list.

Alert Only Mode

This mode will not provide you with new routing information, it will only alert you to the event.
