TMC (Traffic Information)
If your device has an integrated TMC receiver, or if you have connected
an external TMC receiver, the navigation system will have the latest
traffic information available. If necessary it can change your route
dynamically, for example in order to avoid a traffic jam.
Note:
This function is only available if TMC traffic messages are being
transmitted in the country in which you are travelling. This is not the
case in all countries.
The TMC symbol can display the following TMC reception status:
No symbol
: There is no TMC Traffic Receiver connected, or the
connected or built-in TMC Traffic Receiver is not operational.
Tuning
: The TMC receiver is operational but cannot find a station that
is transmitting TMC signals. There are no active traffic messages.
Tuning
