Traffic information on the map

What is TMC?
Traffic Message Channel (TMC) is a technology for
delivering real-time traffic information to drivers. The
traffic information sent by an FM radio station are
received and analyzed by the System. The System can
inform you of where congestion exists, and how you
can detour it.
• You do not have to tune in to a special radio station
to receive the traffic information.
• When you subscribe to the traffic service or giving it a
tryout, the antenna of your car automatically extends
when you turn on the ignition switch.
How to get traffic information
Traffic information is supplied from NAVTEQ Traffic RDS.
This unit automatically starts the 90 days free trial of

From 30 days before the expiration date of your traffic

on the display when turning on the unit. If you want
