Traffic Information (TMC)
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) offers real-time traffic conditions. This can help you to
avoid traffic jams that could not be anticipated due to road closures or accidents.
TMC uses a dedicated FM Radio Data System (RDS) to broadcast real-time traffic and
weather reports.
If normal traffic data is available for your home area, it is taken into account when you
set a destination.
The unit automatically searches for FM radio stations broadcasting TMC data and uses
decoded information for route searches when you set a destination.
When traffic information is being received, a special icon (
) is displayed on the map.
When there is no traffic information available for the route, this icon indicates the
status of the traffic information receiver, and when information is received, the type of
upcoming traffic information is displayed.
Road sections affected by traffic conditions are displayed in a different colour on the
map, and a small icon representing the type of traffic condition is displayed above the
road.
NOTE
• The TMC service is not available for all regions. There are also times when it may
not be available in your country or province. For more information, contact your
nearest dealer.
