Reference Data
Real-time traffic information (TMC)
TMC ( Traffic Message Channel) offers real-time traffic conditions. This 
can help you to avoid traffic jams th at could not be anticipated due to 
road closures or accidents.
TMC uses a dedicated XM satellite ra dio to broadcast real-time traffic 
information.
The default settings use traffic information when searching for a route.
If traffic data normally broadcast in your region can be accessed, this 
received information is automatically taken into account. This does not 
need to be manually set. XM sate llite radio stations broadcasting TMC 
data are searched for automatica lly, and decoded information is 
immediately used to search for routes . If traffic information that might 
affect the current route is received , a warning is displayed indicating 
that the route will be  searched for again, and navigation continues 
using a new, optimal route taking into account the latest traffic 
conditions.
By delaying the timing before applying a route that has been searched 
again, the user can check the route  and fine-tune the details creating 
the optimal search results. You can se t this from Traffic settings. (See 
Page  170.) 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 rece
ived, the type of upcoming traffic 
information is displayed.
Road sections affected by traffic co nditions are displayed in a different 
color on the map, and a small icon representing the type of traffic 
condition is displayed above the road.
Touch   to display the Traffic Summary screen.
