Using the traffic congestion function
Regardless of whether or not your TravelPilot DX-N is able to receive information
from a TMC source (“TMC D-Namic tuner box” or appropriately equipped Blaupunkt
car radio), you can enter a traffic congestion detour manually. As a result, you can
alter your route quickly on the basis of the traffic situation (e.g. road works, closed
sections of road, etc.). The TravelPilot DX-N will then calculate a new route to bypass
the traffic congestion. In order to do this, you must know the distance of the beginning
and the end of the traffic congestion from your current position.
You can also exclude entire roads from the route list.
