Dynamic route guidance with TMC (Traffic Message
Channel)
The prerequisite for dynamic route guidance is always the reception of a
TMC traffic news station for the navigation area available in the unit. TMC
traffic reports received can be displayed in a list ⇒ p age 95.
Reports of traffic congestion received via TMC are displayed by symbols on
the map ⇒ p age 99.
If dynamic route guidance is activated, reported traffic problems can be tak-
en into account in the route calculation.
