To add a Detour:
1. Press and hold the unit or remote MENU (ROUTE) key for two seconds to view the Routes menu. Select
‘Detour’. The Detour Distance window appears.
2. Select the appropriate detour distance (1/2, 1, 2, 5, or 15 miles, or 1, 2, 5, 10, 30 kilometers). The unit
avoids the original route from your current location for the specifi ed detour distance. The Route Prefer-
ence window appears (unless disabled by the ‘Ask Me My Preference’ setting under the System Setup
Routing tab).
3. From the Route Preference window, select ‘Faster Time’, ‘Shorter Distance’, or ‘Off Road’ (or ‘Don’t Ask
Again’). See pages 33-34 for a description of these options.
5. The unit is now ready to navigate the newly altered route. Note that the StreetPilot 2610/2650 remem-
bers the detour each time the route is recalculated (whether manually or automatically); the list of roads
to be avoided are only cleared from memory once you stop navigation or turn off the unit.
To add a Via Point:
1. Press and hold the unit or remote MENU (ROUTE) key for two seconds to view the Routes menu. Select
‘Via Point’, then select ‘Add Via Point’ (note that if the active route does not contain any via points, the
‘Add Via Point’ option is the only allowable option). A window appears with two selectable options (‘Use
Map’ and ‘Find’).
2. To choose a via point using the map, select ‘Use Map‘, point to a location on the map. The route is recal-
culated to include the newly entered via point.
3. To choose an already stored location or POI to become a via point, select ‘Find’ and follow the directions
on page 21-22 to select a location, then select ‘Add As Via’. The route is automatically recalculated to
include the newly added via point.
NOTE: A via point is always placed after all of the via points already entered. Thus, the newly
entered via point becomes the last point on the route before destination.
You can add a via point using either the map (‘Use
Map’) or the ‘Find’ option in order to add an inter-
mediary location to your route.
You can also remove the last via point entered,
using the ‘Remove Via Point’ option under the ‘Via
Point’ feature of the Routes menu.
