Setting up TMC
To start using TMC, connect the TMC antenna to the windshield mount. Plug
the TMC antenna into the TomTom connector.
Using Traffic
When TomTom Traffic is enabled, or a TMC antenna is connected to the
windscreen mount, the Traffic bar is shown on the right-hand side of the
Driving View, as shown below:
Traffic will immediately try to retrieve the latest traffic information.
Updating traffic information
If you are using TomTom Traffic, there are two ways to update the traffic
information:
• Tap
Update traffic info
in the Traffic menu.
• Set Traffic to be updated automatically at regular intervals.
To do this, tap
Change Traffic preferences
in the Traffic menu. Select
Automatically update traffic info while on route
, then tap
Done
.
You are then asked if you want to limit how often Traffic is updated.
If you choose not to limit how often Traffic is updated, then TomTom will
send updated traffic information to your GO as soon as it has it.
If you choose to limit how often Traffic is updated, you are asked to set a
time.
TomTom saves this time limit and sends new traffic information at the
interval you set. If there is no new traffic information, then TomTom will not
send any information to your GO. This saves you money by not using your
wireless data connection when there is no new information.
If you are using the TomTom RDS-TMC Traffic Receiver, traffic information is
automatically updated constantly.
Using traffic information
Having up-to-date traffic information can help you to reduce your trip time. To
set your GO to use traffic information and change your route to avoid traffic
problems, follow these steps:
Note
: TomTom Traffic connects to TomTom using a wireless data
