Locations and Information of Traffic
Conditions
The system may take some time to sort the
information. The list of traffic conditions display
in the order of distance from the vehicle, up to
approximately 75 mi (125 km). With a route planned,
the system defaults to list traffic events on your route.
Without a route planned, if travelling on a major
interstate, the system lists events immediately ahead
on the interstate first. Then all other traffic events follow.
Not all traffic conditions may be listed.
To view the traffic condition location and information on
the map:
1. Press the NAV key, then press the NAV key
repeatedly until Traffic is selected, or touch the
Traffic screen button. A list of traffic conditions with
distance from the vehicle's current position displays.
An arrow may appear before the distance.
The arrow indicates the distance is a straight line
distance and it shows the direction of the event
from the current vehicle's position. If no arrow
appears, the distance indicates how far the event
is ahead on current Interstate highway or route.
