Dynamic destination guide with TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
During the dynamic destination guide, traffic reports emitted 
by TMC stations are taken into account for route calculation. 
In this way, problematic stretches are avoided.To activate or deactivate this fu nction, press the button  ; this will 
access the route options pressing  ; the dynamic guide status 
is selected using the option  Dynamic Navigation. 
It is also possible to press   on th e main navigation menu and activate

Once the dynamic destination guide function has been activ ated you will be 
informed that the route is being recalculated due to traffic  problems if any 
have been registered.
Dynamic destination guide preconditions
In order to use the dynamic destination guide, a TMC statio n must always be 
available ( TMC indicator on the lower right hand  side of the screen). If the 
station received does not offer the TMC service, it is po ssible to search for a 
TMC station after be ginning the destination guide.  A selection may be made 
from the  TMC stations framework  ⇒page 11. Once a TMC station has been 
found or selected, the destination guide is started. 
While the destination guide is operating, other sound so urces may be used 
(for example an audio CD), even though  the TMC reception will remain active 
while the reception is good (Note  ⇒page 43, “The destination guide without 
the navigation CD”). If you continue listening to the ra dio, the tuned radio 
station should offer the TMC service.
If the signal from the TMC station is  lost, the radio and navigation system 
searches for another similar type station.
If, however, “ maintain without TMC ” has been selected or no TMC station is 
being received, the message “ No TMC station registered. ” is displayed. It is

destination guide is limited or may not work. 
Traffic problems during dynamic destination guide
If, while the destination guide is working, a traffic prob lem arises on the 
route, an audio message will indicate the traffic problems or , just before the 
problem, will indicate that there are traffic problems.
The navigation system will calculate the quickest  possible route when the 
dynamic destination guide option is active. The system mi ght well guide you 
through a traffic jam if the diversion would be longer.  
To display the received traffic reports
Pressing the button   displays a list of the latest t raffic reports from 
the received TMC station.
Rotating and pressing the menu button, addition al information on the traffic 
report is displayed. Thus, information  may be obtained on route traffic and 
the route may be altered before  beginning the destination guide.
Note
•
The dynamic route guide option will only function if y ou are receiving at 
least one TMC radio station. During the destination gui de, the TMC station 
must be listened to.
•
The quality of the dynamic destinatio n guide depends on the information 
contained in the traffic announcements. The stations and / or tr affic informa-
tion providers are responsibl e for the information quality.
•
In some situations, the proposed deviat ion in function of some TMC traffic 
report may possibly not represent any time saving if th e alternative route is 
also saturated.

Once the route is calculated, the first indication is heard, for ex ample “Turn 
right for the next exit”. Th e road currently used is indicated on the lower part 
of the screen in the symbol representation mode  ⇒page 40, fig. 20. Up to 
three announcements will be made before a turn has to be m ade to ensure 
that you are informed in time, for exam ple “Approaching left turn”, “Turn left 
after 200 metres” and “Now turn left”.  A proximity bar will be shown in the 
display on the right-hand side of th e turn arrow shortly before the last 
announcement is made. The proximit y bar shows how far away the turning 
point is. After turning, the distance to the next direction ch ange is displayed

mation.
If an intermediate destination is reached, the indic ation “You have reached 
and intermediate destination” is given then “Cal culating route” or “The route 
to intermediate destination is being  calculated” if there is an intermediate 
destination on the route. The route calculation to  the following destination 
begins automatically ( ⇒page 37, “Begin/cancel destination guide”).
WARNING
•
As all drivers, you must concentrate on traffic. The indic ations made on 
the basis of the information on the CD may differ from wh at you actually see 
due to incomplete data or a different  road layout (e.g. due to road works). 
Please keep to traffic regulations and ignore the navig ation recommenda-
tions if necessary.
•
Traffic signs and legislation always have priority over  the recommenda-
tions made by the system.
•
Please observe the important safety warnings  ⇒page 21, “Safety”.Note
Note that the proximity bars and the audio navigation i ndications only reflect 
“real” measurements if the tyre diameter has been c orrectly set (Tyre 
calibration  in ⇒page 35, “Navigation settings (SETUP)”).
