Traffic report …/….
Touch one of the traffic report entries to display traffic report de-
tails » page 64 .
If a TMC traffic radio station is available for current location, the TMC traffic re-
ports are updated continuously in the background. The station you are listen-
ing to does not have to be a TMC station.
The reception of TMC traffic reports is always switched on and cannot be
turned off.
The accuracy of the dynamic route guidance depends on the transmitted traf-
fic reports. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for
the content.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and saved by the radio navigation
system when navigation data are available for the driven area.

, etc.). Traffic
problems, which do not affect the route, are displayed in the map by means of
a grey symbol. The direction in which a traffic problem is found, is displayed by
