Fastest route 
Choose whether you want to avoid motorways. 
Replanning settings 
Note: This setting is only available if your device has either a traffic subscription or an RDS-TMC 
Receiver. Traffic information is not available in all countries or regions. For more information 
about TomTom traffic information services, go to tomtom.com/services. 
Set whether you want your TomTom Connect to replan the current route if a faster route is found 
while you are driving. This is useful if traffic builds up or clears further ahead on your route. Choose 
from the following settings: 
  Always switch to that route - select this option to receive no messages when a faster route is 
found. The current route is automatically re-calculated to be the fastest one. 
  Ask me if I want that route - select this option to be asked if you want to take the new route. 
When asked if you want to take the alternative route, tap Yes to have the current route re-
calculated as the fastest one. Tap No if you don't want to take alternative route.  
Tap Info to see a summary of both the original and the alternative routes. You can then tap 
Done to take the fastest route or Current route to remain on your original route. 
  Never change my route - select this option to receive no messages and simply be shown the 
new route on the screen. 
Map information settings 
Set whether you want to be warned if your route passes through an area where your map contains 
only limited information. 
Toll road, ferry, carpool lanes and unpaved road settings 
Set how your TomTom Connect should manage each of these four road features when the device 
calculates a route.  
Carpool lanes are sometimes known as High Occupancy Vehicle Lanes and are not present in every 
country. To travel on these lanes, you may need to have more than one person in the car, for ex-
ample, or the car may need to use environmentally-friendly fuel. 
Route summary 
Set whether you want the route summary screen to close automatically after you plan a route. If 
you select No, then you will need to tap Done to close the route summary screen every time you 
plan a route. 
Reset factory settings

tings 
Tap this button to delete all your personal settings and restore the stand-
ard factory settings to your TomTom Connect.

ware application installed on your TomTom Connect. 
Important: This feature deletes all your personal settings! 
If you want to keep your personal information and settings, you should 
perform a full backup of your TomTom Connect before you reset the de-
vice. You can then restore all your personal information and settings after 
you reset the device.
