Optimise your route

You can also select from a variety of Incident Map icons that alert you to conditions that may affect your route such as traffic jams, weather warnings and more.
- Press Route preferences to tell SYNC™ how to calculate your route. You can select Fast, Easy or Short. (The default route is Fast)
