After the entry of the destination
address or point of interest (nearest

TMC traffic information system and
dynamic route guidance
The TMC traffic information system
receives all current traffic information from TMC radio stations. This
information is included in the
calculation of the overall route. During this process, the route is planned sothat traffic problems related to pre-
selected criteria are avoided.
If there is a traffic problem during
active route guidance, depending on
the pre-settings, a message appears
as to whether the route should be
changed.
TMC traffic information is displayed in
the map display as symbols or as
detailed text on the TMC messages
menu.

The contacts list and POI data is
stored on the connected USB device
in the folders "F:\myContacts"
respective "F:\myPOIs", where "F:\" is
the root folder of the USB device.
Notice
This function may only be carried out if a USB device with sufficient
storage space is connected.
Downloading contacts data
You can exchange your vehicle
contacts list data with Infotainment
systems in other cars:
To upload the data to a USB device,
see "Uploading navigation data to a
USB device" above.
Connect the USB device to the
Infotainment system of another car

3 32.Creating and downloading user
defined POIs (My POIs)
In addition to the predefined POIs
already stored in the Infotainment
system, you can create user defined
POIs that meet your personal
requirements. After creation, such
user defined POIs can be
downloaded to the Infotainment
system.
For each POI you need to define the
GPS coordinates (longitude and
latitude values) of the respective
location and a descriptive name.
After downloading the POI data to the Infotainment system, you will find the
respective POIs as selectable
destinations in the My POIs menu,
see "Selecting a point of interest" in
chapter "Destination input" 3 70.
Creating a text file with POI data Create a text file (e.g. by using a
simple text editor software) with an
arbitrary name and the file
extension .poi, e.g. "TomsPOIs.poi".
Enter the POI data into the text file in
the following format:
Longitude coordinate, Latitude
coordinate, "Name of POI",
"Additional information", "Phone
number"
Example: 7.0350000, 50.6318040,
"Michaels Home", "Bonn, Hellweg 6", "02379234567" , see image above.
The GPS coordinates must be
expressed in decimal degrees and can be taken, e.g., from a
topographical map.
The additional information and phone
number strings are optional.
70Navigation
The POI name and the additional
information string may not exceed 60 characters each. The phone number
string may not exceed 30 characters.
The POI data of each destination
address must be entered in a single
separate line, see image above.
Storing the POI data on a USB drive
In the root directory of a USB drive:
create a folder named " myPOIs",
e.g. "F:\myPOIs", where "F:\" is the
root directory of the USB drive.
In the "myPOIs" folder, store the text
file with your POIs, e.g. "F:\myPOIs
\TomsPOIs.poi".
Notice
Optionally, subfolders may be
created in the "myPOIs" folder and
several POI files stored.
Downloading the POI data to the
Infotainment system
Connect the USB device with your
user defined POI data to the USB port
3 55 of the Infotainment system.
A message is displayed that prompts
you to confirm the download.After confirmation, the POI data will be downloaded to the Infotainment
system.
The downloaded POIs are then
selectable as destinations via the My
POIs menu, see "Selecting a point of
interest" in chapter "Destination input" 3 70.
