Traffic Information
Using the built-in receiver, the navigation system can receive and use traffic information. When a traffic
message is received, you can see the event on the map and change your route to avoid the traffic incident.
Traffic information is not available on all models or in all areas.
NOTICE
Garmin and JVC KENWOOD are not responsible for
the accuracy or timeliness of the traffic information.
Traffic information may not be available in all areas
or countries.
Understanding FM TMC Traffic
FM TMC traffic receivers receive traffic
information that is broadcast over the FM Radio
Data System. The FM TMC subscription activates
automatically after your navigation system
acquires satellite signals while receiving traffic
signals from the service provider.
About the Traffic Icon
When you are receiving traffic information, a
traffic icon appears on the Map. The traffic icon
changes color to indicate the severity of traffic
conditions.
