Traffic information
Overview
In many congested areas,
you can receive traffic
information that is transm itted by radio stations.
The traffic conditions are monitored by traffic
control centers and the traffic information is
updated periodically.
During route guidance, the traffic information
relevant to the route you are planning to take is
automatically shown and taken into account in
route planning. Irrespective of whether route
guidance is active, you can have the traffic infor-
mation displayed in the map display or as an
event list.
The symbol in the toolbar of the map view
turns red if traffic info rmation relates to the
calculated route.

the following additional terms and conditions
