The following conditions are required for the correct TMC function.
The vehicle is within reception range of the FM RDS-TMC.
Adequate and uninterrupted signal reception of a traffic information sta-
tion.
Current navigation data in the device.
The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for the con-

If a TMC traffic radio station is available for current location, the TMC traffic re-

The reception of TMC traffic reports is always switched on and cannot be
turned off.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and saved by the radio navigation
system when navigation data are available for the driven area.
