During route guidance all set-up depending TMC traffic reports are displayed in
the surrounding area of the location or only those specified on the calculated route
list.
•
The unit has a continuous background of TMC traffic reports providing a TMC
station at the current location can be received. The station you are listening to does
not have to be a TMC station.
•
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and stored by the unit if the naviga-
tion data for the currently driven area is stored in the unit memory or can be called
up via an inserted navigation CD.
•
The quality of the dynamic route guidance depends on the transmitted traffic
announcements. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible
for the content.
