When navigation is already started, there are several ways to modify the active route. The
following sections show some of those options.

3.4.1 Selecting a new destination when already having a route: New Route,

Waypoint or Final Destination

If you already have a recommended route and you select a new destination as described in
the above sections, the application will ask you whether to start a new route, add a new
waypoint (intermediate destination) to the route or append the newly selected destination at
the end of the current route.

x Tap

to plan a new route to the newly selected location. The previous

destination and waypoint(s) are deleted.

x Tap

to add the newly selected location as an intermediate destination to your

route. The other destinations of the route remain intact. Note: the new waypoint is
placed among destinations to keep the route optimal. To decide where a waypoint to
appear, use the Edit Route feature.

x Tap

to append the newly selected destination at the end of the route. The

other destinations of the route remain intact. The previous final destination is now the
last waypoint.

3.4.2 Setting a new starting position for the route

For normal navigation, all routes are planned from the current position. In order to check
future routes, simulate them or see their length in time and distance, you can turn off the GPS
receiver. Then you can set the starting point of the route to a different location than the
current GPS position.

If you are on the Map screen, tap

to return to the Navigation

menu.

In the Navigation menu, tap

If you already have a route, tap

. If you are starting a new route,

way you select a destination.

When the new start point is set, tap

The map returns with a transparent Vehimarker (showing that there is no GPS
reception). If an active route already existed, it is now recalculated starting from the
selected location.

3.4.9 Changing the road types used in route planning

To recalculate the active route with different road type preferences, do as follows. These
changes can also be made in Settings (page 104).

On the Map screen, tap

and then tap

Tap any of the listed road types to modify the route. If needed, scroll the list for all road
types. You have the following options (their order depends on the selected vehicle
type):

- You might need to avoid motorways when you are driving

a slow car or you are towing another vehicle.

- Charge roads are pay roads where you can purchase a

pass or vignette to use the road for a longer period of time. They can be
enabled or disabled separately from toll roads.

- iGO primo includes toll roads (pay roads where there is a

per-use charge) in the routes by default. If you disable toll roads, iGO primo
plans the best toll-free route.

- iGO primo includes ferries in a planned route by default.

However, a map does not necessarily contain information about the accessibility
of temporary ferries. You might also need to pay a fare on ferries.

- iGO primo excludes unpaved roads by default: unpaved

roads can be in a bad condition and usually you cannot reach the speed limit on
them.

The route has already been recalculated. Tap

to return to the Map

screen. The orange line now shows the new recommended route.

4 Off-road navigation

When first started, iGO primo calculates routes using the road network of the high quality
vector maps provided with the product. You can switch the application to off-road mode in
Navigation settings in one of the following ways:

x From the Main menu, tap

and

then

x From the Map screen, tap

and then

Most  of  the  procedures  described  for  on-road  navigation  also  apply  to  off-road  navigation.
However,  there  are  some  that  are  not  available  in  this  navigation  mode  (for  example  you
cannot  open  the  itinerary  as  you  have  no  manoeuvres  just  route  points  and  straight  lines
between them).

4.1 Selecting the destination of the route

Selecting the start point or a destination (waypoint or final destination) is the same as
described at on-road navigation. The only difference is that route points are linked to form a
route with straight lines regardless of the road network and traffic regulations.

4.2 Navigating in off-road mode

The real difference between the on-road and off-road modes is the navigation itself. When
you are on the Map screen with an off-road route:

x your position and heading is not aligned with the nearest road and
x there is no turn by turn navigation just a recommended direction.

You see a orange line drawn between your current position and the next destination to reach.
The Turn Preview field in the top left corner shows a compass with your bearing and the
distance of the next destination.

When you reach a waypoint, the orange line will show the direction to the next destination.
(Future legs of the route are shown with orange lines.)

When you reach the final destination, navigation ends.

5 Lorry navigation

The navigation software gives more options for lorry drivers:

x You can enter the parameters of your vehicle and iGO primo calculates your routes

with taking available weight, height, etc. restrictions into account (this feature is
accurate only if restrictions are available for all roads between your position and the
destination)

x Based on the dimensions and other entered parameters of your vehicle, iGO primo

warns you when you are approaching a restricted road segment or such roads must be
used in your route.

x You can set a waiting (loading) time for each destination of the route. This way the

arrival time calculation can take into account the idle times at intermediate
destinations. In addition, time dependent restrictions and statistical traffic information
can also be considered for the whole route.

x When selecting lorry as the vehicle type, U-turns are disabled from routes as much as

possible.

x By using the

button in the vehicle profile, you can even forbid

turning back on divided roads.

x You can use countdown timers to alert you when compulsory breaks must be taken

(timers can be set for one driver or two alternate drivers)

Warnings are both visual and audible. There are different kinds of warnings:

x When approaching a restricted road segment without a route, you are warned that

there is a restricted area ahead.

x Restricted road segments are excluded from your routes but in some cases some

restricted roads need to be used to reach the given destination. In this case you
receive a warning and you must accept that you have restricted roads in your route or
you can stop the navigation and continue without an active route.

Note!

Please note that lorry navigation is only as accurate and comprehensive as the
restrictions received with the map. Restrictions may not cover lower priority
roads and in most cases the coverage changes as you move around your map
region. You are obliged to always obey the restrictions displayed on the road.

5.1 Setting up vehicle parameters

When you use iGO primo with a lorry, you need to select a lorry type vehicle profile in Route
settings and enter the parameters of your vehicle. These parameters are used in route
calculation to bypass roads that are restricted for your lorry. Do as follows:
