4.1 Concepts
4.1.1 Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom provides much more than just a usual automatic zoom feature:
•
While following a route:
when approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the view
angle to let you easily recognize your maneuver at the next junction. If the next turn is at
a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to be
fl
at so you can see the road in
front of you.
•
While driving without an active route:
Smart Zoom will zoom in if you drive slowly and
zoom out when you drive at high speed.
•
Off:
Turns the Smart Zoom setting off.
4.1.2 Route calculation and recalculation
The navigation system calculates the route based on your preferences:
• Route planning methods:
•
: Gives a quick route if you can travel at or near the speed limit on all
roads.
•
: Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of all possible routes.
•
: This method combines the merits of the Fast and Short routes:
The navigation system makes a calculation for the Fast route, but it also
includes other roads in the calculation in consideration of fuel economy.
•
: Results in a route with fewer turns and no dif
fi
cult maneuvers. With this
option, you can make the navigation system take, for example, the highway/
freeway instead of a series of smaller roads or streets.

Whenever data exist, route calculation takes into account historical traf
fi
c data for the given day
of week and time of day (page 54).
If the setting for Traf
fi
c Settings is valid, Real-time Traf
fi
c events are taken into account and the
route is largely modi
fi
ed.
The navigation system automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed
itinerary or if a newly received Traf
fi
c event concerns a part of the recommended route.
For further information about Route settings, see page 59.
