TMC traffic information . If the MMI does not ca l-
culate a detour even though you have se lected

on the calculated route, then the detour the sys-
tem calculated would take more time than the
time spent wa iting in the traffic jam.

pear in the Infotainment d isplay in the side

in the alte rna tive routes by turning and press ing
t he control knob.
