Bypassing traffic congestion
Activating the traffic congestion function
Use this function to exclude certain sections of
the route lying ahead. Use the menu items to
extend the length of road you want to exclude
from your route. Based on this information, the
radio navigation system will calculate an alter-
nate route to your destination that will bypass
the sections of the route that were excluded if
possible. Route guidance will continue with the
new route. The navigation system automatically limits the
length of the route section you can exclude to a
reasonable length. In the country, for example,
bypassing traffic congestion can mean having
to take a much longer route because the road
network is not as dense as in the cities.
Automatic traffic congestion function
As an alternative to using the traffic congestion
function to exclude sections of your route manu
-
ally, you can also take advantage of TMC (Traffic
Message Channel) and dynamic route guidance
to conveniently detour around any traffic conges -
tion on your route. With TMC your radio naviga-
tion system receives current, digital traffic infor -
mation from TMC radio stations. The system then
evaluates this information in planning the route.
This is not possible unless you have tuned into
a TMC radio station (for more information, refer
to Radio operation, starting on page 22) and
dynamic route guidance has been activated (see
Selecting route options , page 48).

59RADIO NAVIGATION SYSTEMNAVIGATION
Note: The radio navigation system always
calculates the best route in terms of time for
the automatic traffic congestion function,
i.e. if bypassing the congestion means that
you will have to drive much farther, the radio
navigation system may choose to go through
the congestion. This depends on the length
and type of traffic congestion involved as
reported in the traffic information and the
length of a possible detour
.
Activating the main traffic congestion menu
• Press the traffic congestion button du-ring route guidance to calculate an alternate
route.
The TRAFFIC MENU will appear.
There are two ways to enter traffic congestion
manually.
Selecting an alternate route
JAM AHEAD - You can exclude a section of the
route by entering the beginning ( FROM) and end
( TO ) of the traffic congestion with respect to your
current vehicle position.
Mark and confirm the menu item for FROM and
TO and mark the section of the route you want
to exclude. The navigation system will deter-
mine the length of the route sections that can
be excluded.
BLOCK ROUTE - The route list will appear and
you can exclude individual streets.
• Use the menu knob to mark and confirm the starting and end point of the route section
you want to exclude.
The excluded route section is indicated by a black
bar in front of the entries in the route list.
Note: It is not always possible to calculate
an alternate route for the section of the route
lying ahead.
Any exclusions you make will remain stored
until you have reached your destination.
Any previous route exclusions will be auto-
matically deleted when you use the traffic con-
gestion function again and the new exclusion
will be stored for the route lying ahead.
If it is not possible to calculate an alternate
route, you will hear the following message:
“Continue to follow the route.”

Glossary
EON - Enhanced Other Network
With RDS, EON makes it possible to exchange
station information within a station network.
If a traffic message is broadcast while you are
listening to a station in the network that does not
offer traffic information service, for example, then
the radio will automatically switch to the other
station for the duration of the message. Once
the message has been completed, the radio will
switch back to the original station.
GALA - Speed-dependent volume adjustment
The volume of the system is automatically rai-
sed or lowered, depending on the driving noise
experienced.
COMFORT CODING
The Comfort Coding function automatically en-
ters the code via the instrument cluster.
