Select the 

Reroute Option button on the screen. A new screen appears on which you can set the distance from the 

event that will trigger the alternative route calculation (see Diagram 6). 

Check one of the following options:

•

Live Alert: With this option checked, the Magellan RoadMate will search for a faster alternative route whenever a 

TMC event occurs on your current route. This will happen when information about the event is received, 
regardless of your distance from the event.

•

Dist. to event < 40 mi: With this option checked, the Magellan RoadMate will re-route you only if the distance to 

this TMC event is less than 40 miles from your current location (not a point-to-point distance but the distance of 
the route).

•

Dist. to event < 20 miles: Same as above for a distance of 20 miles.

•

Dist. to event < 10 miles: Same as above for a distance of 10 miles.

When you use your Magellan RoadMate in Re-routing Mode, the following will occur whenever a TMC event that affects your 
route is received:

•

The Magellan RoadMate will analyse the impact that this event will have on your route.

•

A “Re-calculating the route” message will pop up on the Magellan RoadMate screen, along with the reason for 

the re-calculation.

•

Once the Magellan RoadMate has calculated an alternative route, it will compare the alternative route with the 

original route and decide on the best route to follow, taking time and distance into consideration.

•

If the original route is still the best one to follow, the route will be unchanged and the time portion of the status 

bar will be updated to reflect the delay. In this case, you will see the event in the manoeuvre list when you get 
closer to it.

•

If the alternative route is the best route to follow, the Magellan RoadMate will start guiding you along this route.

•

The map screen will also show road signs corresponding to TMC events, including those not affecting the route.

•

Events that affect your route will also appear as road signs in the manoeuvre list.

Setting the Alert Mode. This mode will not provide you with new routing information, it will only alert you to the event. 
(Magellan recommends that you keep both incident Options checked.)
