|
|
Is there a way of getting my TT Go to warn me of Congestion zones when planning a route. I thought that previously mne warned me but these warnings seem to have disappeared. How do I enable this with spoken warnings...is it possible?
I have Go classic version 6.150 GPS v1.21 Boot 4.29

My "unimproved" Go300 still does.
I'm afraid I don't have my unit with me today, so I can't check, but I think there was something in "Planning Preferences" to warn of Toll Routes or not. Maybe that has got un-ticked in one of your software upgrades? |

I found it. (someone else at work brought his unit in today).
In v5 it is on Preferences page 4 of 6, and from the online manual:
Quote: | Toll charge preferences
'Toll charge preferences' give you a chance to specify what should happen in the event of your TomTom system considering a toll road in its calculations. Select 'Always avoid toll roads' to automatically exclude these from future routes, select 'Never avoid toll roads' to allow a best route to be calculated regardless of any toll charges. Otherwise, simply leave this preference at its default of 'Ask me when it happens'.
|
On v6 you might have to hit the "Show all menu options" option first (God, what a stupid idea that was!).
Typically, the x10 series manual is useless...
Quote: | Many more preferences...
Not all preferences are described in this chapter. There are many other things
you can change to make your GO work the way you want.
The best way to find out about all the preferences is to try them. So go ahead
and give them a go. |
No... the best way to find out about them would be for TomTom to have written a proper manual rather than half of one... |
