Note:
As the traffic announcements are trans-
mitted by radio stations, we cannot as-
sume responsibility for the completeness
or accuracy of the announcements.
The Becker® MAP PILOT constantly
checks whether there are any relevant an-
nouncements for the route that has been
set.
If the continuous checks determine that a
traffic announcement is relevant to route
guidance, the unit can automatically re-
calculate a new route to the destination
(See "TMC settings" on page 45.).

Displaying TMC messages

Once you have connected the Becker®
MAP PILOT to the unit holder, your
Becker® MAP PILOT will receive up-to-
date traffic announcements and dynamic
route calculation will be enabled (traffic
jam diversion). You can also view traffic
announcements directly.
Settings for TMC can be made as de-
scribed under "TMC settings" on
page 45.
