Traffic disruptions are indicated by a corresponding symbol on the map: The di-
rection, in which the traffic disruption is found on the map, is displayed in colour.
A traffic disruption that is located on the calculated route is marked by a coloured
traffic event button. If there is no traffic disruption on the route, the button is
grey.
Note
If a TMC traffic radio station is available for current location, the TMC traffic re-
■
ports are updated continuously in the background. The station you are listening
to does not have to be a TMC station.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and saved by the radio navigation sys-
■
tem when navigation data are available for the driven area.
The accuracy of the dynamic route guidance depends on the transmitted traffic
■
reports. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for the
content.
TMC traffic reports are necessary for the dynamic route guidance.
■
Making a diversion from a traffic jam based on TMC traffic reports may not al-
■
ways offer a time advantage, e.g. if the diversion route is also congested.
