 +  * Choosing a large number of avoidances means that Kurviger is severely restricted when calculating the route. 
 +  * Avoidances should therefore be used with caution and **sparingly**, as otherwise undesirable routes or long detours may be calculated! 
 +  * It is also important to ensure that the avoidances are used sensibly in order to obtain a good route.
