Technical data

TMC Status and Quality (only for TMC cradle)

Using TMC offers you an additional

function to allow you to dynamically

avoid traffic jam. During navigation the

system regularly accesses the latest TMC

traffic information in the background;

provided that this information is availa-

ble in the part of the country you are in.

TMC reception information can be made visi-

ble in the status bar.

Tap Settings and tap TMC to switch TMC re-

ception On or Off.

Traffic information is depending on several

conditions e.g. TMC is switched On, the traf-

fic information is known and send by the pro-

vider, the information can be received.

When you set TMC On and there is no reception, a red checkmark is shown. When you re-

ceive TMC, the name of the provider is shown green in the status bar. If TMC is switched Off,

no provider is shown and a narrow line is visible.

When TMC is switched On and you receive traffic information, the status bar also vis-

ualises the delay time. For example caused by traffic jam or road works. This is indicat-

ed by the colour of the hourglass:

Red There is TMC information and delay time

Green There is TMC information but no delay time

Grey TMC is not available or switched off (only for traffic product version)

When TMC is switched On and there is a traffic jam on your route, a pop up icon ap-

pears in the left corner on the map display screen. Tap this icon and a list of detailed

information appears.
