3.17 TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
First time use: For optimum TMC reception we recommend that the TMC antenna (the thin cable with clear suckers) is separated
from the main power cable.
To separate the cables gently pull the two cable apart, stopping approach 10mm from the USB plug.
NOTE: if you are using live traffic services then See section ??? the the TMC antenna is not required.
The antenna is connected to Snooper via the USB socket on the left hand side of the unit, the antenna should be attached to the
windscreen using the suckers provided.
The positioning of the antenna will affect the reception of TMC ‘alerts’ (see diagrams below for positioning guidance)
