Traffic on Your Route

When a traffic delay occurs on your route, an alert appears on 

the map, and the device calculates an alternate route to avoid 

the delay. You can choose whether to use alternate routes 

automatically, or upon request. See Traffic Settings for more 

information (

Traffic Settings

, page 14

). Your device may route 

you through a traffic delay if a better alternative route does not 

exist. The delay time is added into your estimated time of arrival 

automatically.

Taking an Alternate Route

If you do not have your device set to use alternate routes 

automatically, you can manually start an alternate route to avoid 

a traffic delay.
