Traffic Information
TMC
The navigation system has an integrated TMC receiver which supplies
up-to-date traffic information. Using this information the navigation
system can change your route dynamically, for example in order to
avoid a traffic jam.
Note:
This function is only available if TMC traffic messages are being
transmitted in the country in which you are travelling. This is not the
case in all countries.
The
TMC
symbol can display the following TMC reception status:
Tuning
(in red): The TMC receiver is operational but cannot find a
transmitter that is sending TCM signals. There are no active traffic
messages.
Tuning
: The TMC receiver is operational but cannot find a station that
is transmitting TMC signals. Traffic messages are active however. This
can be the case, for example, when travelling through a tunnel.
TMC on Standby
(in grey): Traffic messages can be received.
Note:
The TMC antenna is integrated in the car charger cable. The
Tuning
symbol will therefore appear when the car charger cable is not
connected to the navigation device.
For details of the TMC function refer to chapter "TMC (Traffic
Information)" on page 84.

The Traffic Live symbol appears when you are drawing traffic
information from the
NAVIGON Live
service.
The Traffic Live symbol can indicate the following traffic information
reception states:

Connecting
: The last attempt to call up traffic information from
the
NAVIGON Live

when travelling through a tunnel. Information which was called up
previously may still be active however.
