Using traffic information
You can view current traffic conditions and in-
formation. When the navigation system re-
ceives updated traffic information, it will
overlay the traffic information on your map
and also display detailed text information
when available.
The navigation system takes into account traf-
fic information and tries to avoid traffic con-
gestion and suggests better routes. Also,
when you are traveling along a route and the
system finds a better route to avoid traffic con-
gestion.
The system acquires the traffic information up
to 100 miles in radius from the vehicle posi-
tion. (If there is a lot of traffic information
around your vehicle, the radius will be shorter
than 100 miles.)
The term
“
traffic congestion
”
in this section in-
dicates the following types of traffic informa-
tion: slow, queuing and stationary traffic and
closed/blocked roads. This information is al-
ways taken into consideration when checking
your route, and the information related with
these events cannot be turned off. If you select
other traffic information in
“
Traffic Settings
”
,
the information can be displayed in a list or on
a map.
