Traffic on Your Route

When calculating your route, the GPS 

navigator examines the current traffic 

delays and automatically optimizes 

the route for the shortest time. You 

might still be routed through traffic 

if it is the best route available or no 

alternative roads exist. If a severe 

traffic delay occurs on your route while 

you are navigating, the GPS navigator 

automatically recalculates the route to 

avoid the severe delay.
The Map page displays   when a 

traffic delay is on your route. The 

number in the icon represents the time 

this delay added to your route. The delay 

time has been automatically calculated 

into the arrival time shown on the map. 

To avoid traffic on your route:

1.  On the Map page, touch  .
2.  Touch the text bar at the top of the 

Map page for more information. If 

there is more than one delay, touch 

Details

.

3.  Touch 

Avoid

 to avoid this delay.

traffic flow.

bit congested.

 Red =  High severity; traffic is heavily 

congested or stopped.
