with traffic. The quality of the dynamic route guidance depends on the infor-
mation contained in the TMC traffic reports. The radio stations broadcasting
this information are responsible for the content.
The route to cover can also be blocked manually to force a new route to be
calculated

TMC traffic reports on the map
Icon: meaning
: queues
: traffic jam
: accident
: slippery ground
: danger of skidding
: danger
: roadworks
: strong wind
: road closed
During guided navigation, traffic incidents that affect the calculated route
are represented in red, while those that do not are represented in grey.
The length of a traffic incident along the route calculated is represented by
a red line.
The TMC symbol is located at the start of the traffic delay, provided it has
been defined clearly in the TMC traffic report.
Depending on the scale of the map, other congestion icons may be hidden
behind one TMC icon. In this case, press the TMC icon and a list will open
with further traffic incidents present.

Guide to the destination in demonstration mode (Demo)
If, in the menu
Navigation setup
, Demo mode is active
⇒
page 44, an addi-
tional pop-up window will appear when guided navigation starts.
●
Pressing the function button
Demo mode
starts a “virtual” guided naviga-
tion to the final destination indicated.
●
If you press the function button
Normal mode
, the “real” guided naviga-
tion will begin.
The sequence of events and the operations in virtual route guidance are
similar to those in real route guidance.
Virtual route guidance is repeated when you reach the fictitious destination
and always starts again from the starting point if it is interrupted.
If in the menu
Navigation setup
the starting point of the Demo mode was de-
termined manually, the virtual guided navigation will begin from this posi-
tion.
If the vehicle is moved and the unit can determine its current location by
GPS, any manually entered starting point will be overwritten with the current
vehicle location.
When real route guidance is started following virtual route guidance in
demo mode, the unit first has to reorient itself. This orientation can last
some time depending on the number of satellites that are received at that
time. Moving the vehicle may speed up the reorientation process.
Note
Deactivate the Demo mode after use, because otherwise before starting gui-
ded navigation you will always have to select whether you want virtual or
real navigation.
