FM radio stations in several countries broadcast TMC information as part of their programming. TMC is also known as RDS-TMC traffic information. Your TomTom device uses this information to warn you about traffic delays along your route and how you can avoid them.
The following symbols are shown at the top of the Traffic sidebar: Your device is looking for a radio station with RDS-TMC traffic information. Your device has found a suitable radio station and is checking for the latest traffic information. Your device is tuned to a radio station and receives RDS-TMC traffic information when available.

If there are any incidents on your route the Traffic sidebar on the right side of the Driving View warns you. An example of a Traffic sidebar with a traffic warning is shown to the left.

3. Select or clear the check box next to each preference you want to change. 4. Tap Done. Your device lists the countries that have radio stations providing RDSTMC traffic information that you can currently receive. Normally you can leave this set to Any country (strongest signal). For more information about this country setting, see Choosing the correct country for RDSTMC reception (39). 5. Tap Done.
Note: It is possible that the alternative route could be longer than your original one (even with its delays). If this is the case, you could always try using the Find alternative button again.
