available traffic bulletins into account. A mes‐ sage is displayed depending on the route, the
traffic bulletins, and the possible detour routes.
If possible, a detour is offered in case of traffic
obstructions.
The upper part of the message shows:
▷Symbol of the first traffic obstruction, pos‐
sibly with the distance to the beginning of
the obstruction.Seite 157Destination guidanceNavigation157

▷Detour recommendation with the distance
to the beginning of the detour.▷Difference between the length of the new
route compared to the original route.▷Time gained if the detour is taken com‐
pared to the original route with the traffic
