Calling up traffic information
Introduction
If desired, your MMI system will inform you about the current traffic
situation both on the screen and audibly.
You are probably familiar with the traffic reports that most radio
stations transmit at regular intervals. Your MMI system automati-
cally records these reports
page 121 for up to an hour after the
MMI has been switched off. The Traffic Programme reception is indi-
cated by the TP symbol when the radio, the CD player or the Audi
music interface*
21) is switched on
page 58.
In addition, more and more radio stations transmit traffic messages
that are received automatically and inaudibly by your MMI system.
You can set the system to display these messages on your MMI
display. Another even more convenient function is that the MMI
system uses these reports when the dynamic navigation function is
activated to guide you around traffic obstructions such as conges-
tions whenever possible
page 117.
The reception of traffic messages is indicated by the TMC symbol at
the top of the display when the navigation mode is activated:
Calling up traffic reports (TP memo)
Traffic reports are stored along with the station name and
the time of transmission.
Important: The Traffic Programme function must be
switched on
