With this function you can set the start time of two separate timers for
recording traffic news announcements.
From the time set in
Timer 1
or
Timer 2
, the navigation system can store traffic
announcements for approx. two hours.
Use the
Timer status
option to activate the times you have set. e.g. in the
timer status function, if you select
timer 1
, the traffic announcements are
stored for approx. two hours as of the time set by you.
You can access the recorded traffic announcements using the
TP memo
control button
When you park your vehicle, the timers will remain on for a total of 72 hours.
During these 72 hours the system will record the traffic announcements it
receives at the times you have specified. If you have not used your vehicle for
longer than 72 hours the timers will be deactivated to avoid draining the
battery.
Recorded traffic announcements will be deleted after about six hours.
Note
•
Traffic announcements can only be recorded if the
Traffic programme
option in Radio Setup is set to
on
.
•
All incoming traffic news announcements will be recorded. As the system
has a limited memory capacity, all old traffic announcements are overwritten
by new ones.
•
To avoid draining the battery we recommend that you only activate the
timers when necessary.
TMC announcements
When the route guidance is activated, you can switch the TMC
announcement option on or off as desired.
TMC stands for “Traffic Message Channel”.
– Starting from any one of the INFO menus, press the
page 9 button.
– Select
TMC announcement
– Select
on
to activate the option for TMC announcements, or
– Select
off
to deactivate the option for TMC announcements.
If there is an obstruction, but your route cannot be adapted, you will hear a
TMC announcement.
Whenever there is an obstruction, you will hear two TMC announcements (if
applicable). The first announcement will be made about 30 km before you
reach the traffic obstruction and a second announcement will follow about
two km before the obstruction.
