5.3.3 Route settings
These settings determine how routes will be calculated.
Button Description
You can set the type of vehicle you will use to navigate the route. Based
upon this setting, some of the road types can be excluded from the route, or
some of the restrictions may not be taken into account in route calculation.

On-road navigation creates a turn by turn itinerary using the road network
on the map. Switch to off-road navigation to navigate between destinations
in a straight line.
The route calculation can be optimised for different situations and vehicle
types by changing the planning method. See below for details.
If the selected routing method is not Green, you can have your route
comparedtothebestgreenalternativeonthescreenwhenconrmingthe
route. If this alternative is much better than the selected method, you can
quickly switch to Green mode.

or to be excluded from the route if possible.
Excluding a road type is a preference. It does not necessarily mean total prohibition.
If your destination can only be accessed using some of the excluded road types, they
will be used but only as much as necessary. In this case a warning icon will be shown
on the My Route screen, and the part of the route not matching your preference will be
displayed in a different colour on the map.
In the list of road types you can see in how many segments and what total length of the
road type is used in the current route.
