The display “TP” in combination with a station name (e.g. in the station or preset list), 
indicates a traffic programme station.
Irrespective of which radio st ation is heard, an additional receiver part in the unit 
ensures that a traffic programme station can always be received as long as the traffic 
programme function is switched on.
The functionality of the tr affic programme function “ TP” is displayed at the top right on 
the touch-screen.
If no traffic programme station can be rece ived because, for example, radio reception 
is interrupted in general, “ No TP” will be displayed instead of “ TP”. Remember that car 
parks, tunnels, high building s or mountains can interrupt  the radio signal up to the 
total loss of reception.

displayed in colour. A traffic problem which  is located on the route (in direction of 
travel) is marked in red, a traffic problem  in the opposite direction is marked in grey.
Note
•
The unit has a continuous background of TMC traffic reports providing a TMC 
station at the current location can be receiv ed. The station you are listening to does not 
have to be a TMC station.
•
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated  and stored by the unit if the nagivation 
data (SD card or CD) is available for the driven area.
•
The quality of the dynamic route guidan ce depends on the transmitted traffic 
announcements. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for 
the content.
•
TMC traffic reports are necessar y for the dynamic navigation.
•
There may not be any advantage in avoiding the traffic jam if, as a result of the TMC 
traffic reports, the diversion is also heavily congested.
