Editing the Navigation Utilities
Using XM NavTraffic
Information
If you have a GEX-P10XMT XM Digital Satellite
Data & Audio Receiver (sold separately) at-
tached to the navigation system, and have an
active subscription to XM NavTraffic service,
you can view current traffic conditions and in-
formation on your navigation display. When
the unit receives updated traffic information,
the navigation system will overlay the traffic in-
formation on your map, and also display de-
tailed text information when available. When
you are traveling along a route and there is
traffic information on your current route, the
system will automatically detect it, and ask
you if you would like to be rerouted. (In such
case, route calculation takes into considera-
tion about 90 mile radius of alternative routes
and its traffic conditions from your current lo-
cation).
p The term "traffic congestion" in this section
indicated the following types of traffic infor-
mation: stop and go, stopped traffic and
closed/ blocked roads. This information is
always taken into consideration when
checking your route, and the information
related with these events cannot be turned
off. Additionally, the system also takes into
consideration the traffic flow information if
[Use traffic flow information] is [On].
