INFO:
.
Only one of these route condition can be
utilized at a time.
.The recalculated route may not be the
shortest route because the system priori-
tizes roads that are easy to drive on for
safety reasons.
.If route conditions are set from [Search
Criteria], all sections in the route are subject
to the same route conditions even though
different route conditions have been set for
different sections in [Edit Route].
.If [Use Time Restricted Roads] is deacti-
vated, the system calculates a route without
any consideration of the regulations con-
cerning the time or day of the week.
Therefore, the suggested route may include
a road subject to traffic regulations con-
cerning the time or day of the week. When
driving along the route, always follow all
traffic regulations regardless of whether
[Use Time Restricted Roads] is set to be
considered or not.
.If the system cannot calculate any alter-
native routes, the previous route is dis-
played.
.If the vehicle greatly deviates from the
suggested route, the system calculates a
new route.
.Traffic jam information displayed on the
map screen is not statistical traffic informa-
tion.
.Even when [Use Real Time Traffic Info] is
turned on, if traffic information has not been
provided for the area, a detour may not
always be indicated in a location where a
traffic jam occurs.
.The system may not lead to a detour if traffic
closure or a traffic jam occurs far from the
present location.
.The system calculates to reduce the time
required for the entire route from the start to
the destination. If there are no appropriate
routes, the system may lead to a route
where a traffic jam occurs instead of leading
to a detour.
VIEWING TRAFFIC INFORMATION
SiriusXM Traffic information is a subscrip-
tion service offered by SiriusXM Satellite
Radio.
This service provides real-time information
regarding traffic flow, accidents, road
construction and other incidents, where
available.
SiriusXM Traffic combines information from
commercial and public traffic data provi-
ders including government departments of
transportation, police, emergency services,
road sensors, cameras and aircraft reports.
The traffic information is broadcast to the
vehicle by the SiriusXM satellites. Traffic
information available for the route the
driver selected is shown on the navigation
screen so traffic conditions between you
and the destination are known. Three types
of real-time traffic information for major
roadways are shown on the navigation
system: . Unscheduled traffic data for example,
accidents and disabled vehicles.
. Scheduled traffic data, for example
road construction and road closures.

Flow information is provided only for roads
equipped with traffic sensors and is not
available in all markets covered by the service.
