03 Traffic information
Navigation – traffic information
The navigation system constantly receives
updated traffic information, which is used for
dynamic guidance. When situations occur
that may cause delays (e.g., an accident, road
work), this will be displayed on the screen. If a
destination has been set, the route to it will be
recalculated, which can occur automatically
or require confirmation, see Rerouting on
03
request(p. 25).
TMC is a standardized system for broadcast-
ing traffic information. The vehicle's radio
automatically tunes to the correct frequency.
Traffic information is displayed differently
depending on whether or not a destination
has been set.
This symbol indicates that
traffic information is available
in the current broadcast area
and will displayed in two col-
ors depending on the impor-
tance of the information:
•
RED: the information will be read aloud
and the location of the problem will be
shown on the map.
•
YELLOW: the information will not be read
aloud but the location of the problem will
be shown on the map.
