If public Traffic data is broadcast at your location, Blaupunkt Navigation automatically takes
into account the traffic events received. You do not need to set anything in the program. The
receiver will automatically search the FM radio stations for TMC data, and the decoded
information will immediately be used in route planning. When Blaupunkt Navigation receives
traffic information that may affect your route, the program will warn you that it is recalculating
the route, and navigation will continue with a new route that is optimal considering the most
up-to-date traffic conditions.
To fine-tune this recalculation, you can set the minimum delay that can trigger a route
recalculation, or you can instruct Blaupunkt Navigation to have you confirm the new
recommended route before it takes effect. You can do these in Traffic settings (page 78).
A special icon (
) is displayed on the Map screen to show you whether traffic events are
received. The icon shows the status of the traffic receiver when there are no traffic events on
your route, otherwise it shows the type of the next traffic event on your route.
Road segments affected by traffic events are displayed with an alternate colour on the map,
and small symbols above the road show the nature of the event:
