XM NavTrafficinformation is a subscription ser-
vice offered by XM Satellite Radio.
This service provides real-time information re-
garding traffic flow, accidents, road construction
and other incidents, where available.
XM NavTraffic combines information from com-
mercial and public traffic data providers includ-
ing government departments of transportation,
police, emergency services, road sensors, cam-
eras and aircraft reports. The traffic information
is broadcast to the vehicle by the XM satellites.
Available traffic information on the route the
driver selected is shown on the navigation
screen so traffic conditions between you and the
destination are known. Three types of real-time
traffic information for major roadways are shown
on the navigation system:
● Unscheduled traffic data for example, acci-
dents and disabled vehicles.
● Scheduled traffic data, for example road con-
struction and road closures.
● Traffic flow information (rate of speed data) .
mWARNING
XM NavTraffic information is not a sub-
stitute for attentive driving. Traffic condi-
tions change constantly and emergency
situations can arise without warning. Re-
lying only on XM NavTraffic information
may lead to a collision and could result
in serious personal injury.
NOTE:
Flow information is provided only for
roads equipped with traffic sensors and is
not available in all markets covered by the
service. Flow data may not be available on
portions of a road that is under
construction.

DISPLAY OF CURRENT VEHICLE
LOCATION
This navigation system combines the data ob-
tained from the vehicle (by gyro sensor) and from
GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites to
calculate the current location of the vehicle. This
position is then displayed throughout route guid-
ance to a destination.
WHAT IS GPS (Global Positioning
System)?
GPS is a position detecting system that uses
satellites deployed by the U.S. government. This
navigation system receives radio signals from
three or more different satellites that orbit
13,049 miles (21,000 km) above the earth in
space, and detects the position of the vehicle by
utilizing the principle of triangulation.
Positioning adjustment
When the system judges that the vehicle posi-
tion information is not accurate based on vehicle
speed and gyro sensor data calculations, the
system will automatically adjust the position of
the vehicle icon using GPS signals.
Receiving signals from GPS satellites
The reception of GPS signals can be weak, de-
pending on the environment. Vehicles in the fol-
lowing areas/environments may not receive GPS
signals.

●In some cases, voice guidance ends before
arrival at the destination. Refer to the destina-
tion icon on the map to reach the destination.
● If the system recognizes on which side the
destination (waypoint) is located, voice guid-
ance will announce “on the right/left” after an-
nouncing the arrival at the destination.
● Voice guidance may be partially operational or
inoperative due to the angle of roads at an
intersection.
● Because freeway lane information is available
only for approximately 7,000 major freeways
in North America, it is not possible to display
information for all junctions and exits.
● Freeway exit information may differ from the
information on the actual exit signs.
● Because it is not possible to consider data
concerning roads that are seasonally available
or unavailable, a route may be displayed that
does not match the actual traffic restrictions.
Be sure to follow the actual traffic restrictions
while driving. ●
Canada and Alaska contain many roads with
incomplete map data. As a result, when
searching for a route, the route may include
roads with incomplete data. In regions where
road data is not complete, voice guidance
may stop for long periods of time. Be sure to
follow the actual traffic restrictions while
driving. ●
The XM NavTraffic information service is not
provided for some cities. In addition, the cities
for which the traffic information service is pro-
vided may be changed.
● In some cases, infrastructure problems may
prevent the complete display of the traffic
information. This is not a malfunction.
● Due to infrastructure problems, or due to the
time when the traffic information service
broadcast is received, the displayed informa-
tion may differ from the actual traffic
conditions.
● Depending on the traffic information, a detour
route may be slower than the original route.
● XM NavTraffic is a service of XM Satellite
Radio. XM NavTraffic is only available in se-
lect markets within the 48 contiguous United
States and is subject to data availability. Re-
ception of the XM signal may vary depending
on location. It requires a monthly premium
subscription. The service provider is solely re-
sponsible for the quality and accuracy of the
information provided. All fees and program-
ming are subject to change. For more details
