To select the next or previous alternative route: select Next or Previous and press to confirm.
Possible alternative routes are shown in the following order: Current Route, Fast Route, Eco Route, Short Route and Alternative Route.
To select the original route: select Back a corresponding number of times and press to confirm.

The change of route mode in the alternative route menu only applies to the current route guidance. For example, if the original route was a short route, the next route will also be calculated as a short route. This is also the case if a dynamic route is selected in the alternative route menu.
