Note
•
The unit has a continuous background of
TMC traffic reports providing a TMC
station at the current location can be rece
ived. The station you are listening to does
not have to be a TMC station.•
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluate
d and stored by the unit if the nagi-
vation data (SD card or CD) is
available for the driven area.
•
The quality of the dynamic route guidan
ce depends on the transmitted traffic
announcements. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for the content.•
TMC traffic reports are necessar
y for the dynamic navigation.
•
There may not be any advantage in avoiding the traffic jam if, as a result of the
TMC traffic reports, the diversion is also heavily congested.
