Services Displayed
You can select the service types displayed for the freeway exits or
service stations. Choose from the POI categories.
Automatic Overview
When selected, the map zooms out to show an overview of the
surrounding area if the next route event (maneuver) is far. When
you get close to the event, the map returns to the normal map
view.
Signposts
Whenever adequate information is available, lane information
similar to the real ones on road signs above the road is displayed
at the top of the map. You can turn this feature on or off.
Junction View
If you are approaching a freeway exit or a complex intersection
and the necessary information is available, the map is replaced
with a 3D view of the junction.
Tunnel View
When entering tunnels, the surface roads and buildings can
be distracting. This feature shows a generic picture of a tun-
nel instead of the map. A top-down overview of the tunnel and
remaining distance are also displayed.
Offer Congestion Detour on Highways
When you slow down while driving on a freeway due to a traffic
congestion, this navigation system offers you a detour using the
next exit. The message shows you the distance to the exit and the
difference in the distance and estimated time compared to the
original route. You can choose from one of the following options:

Touch [Dismiss] or just ignore the message if you want to
keep the original route.

Touch [Preview] to see an overview of the original route and
the detour to make the decision. You can accept the detour
as shown in the preview, or increase the freeway segment
bypassed before accepting.

Turn to the suggested new direction and the route will be
automatically recalculated.
Offer Real Time Alternative Routes
Alternative routes can be suggested when driving on normal
roads. This navigation system will select a different turn in the
upcoming intersection and offer you a different route for the next
section of the route. You cannot, however, modify the offered
detour.
Offer Parking Around Destination
Parking at the destination may not be easy to find in city areas.
As you approach the destination, this navigation system can
offer parking category places near your destination. Touch
to open a top-down map with the destination and the offered
parking places. The route is calculated by selecting one of the
parking places.
Offer Hints Upon Detour
If you leave the recommended route and suddenly exit the
freeway, this navigation system offers different alternatives near
the exit like gas stations or restaurants. Also, if there are avoid-
able parts of the original route ahead (like a tunnel, a toll road or
a ferry), you will find them in the list in case you want to bypass
them with the help of this navigation system.
