Your zūmo can receive and use traffic
information using an optional FM
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) traffic
receiver (such as the GTM ™ 20) or an
XM smart antenna (such as the GXM ™
30). When a traffic message is received,
your zūmo displays the incident on the
map and can change your route to avoid
the traffic incident.
NOTE: Garmin is not
responsible for the accuracy
of the traffic information. The
traffic receiver or antenna simply
receives signals from the traffic
service provider and displays that
information on your zūmo.
