NOTE: You must have a subscription to XM

NavTraffic™ to get traffic functions on your

Garmin unit.

Using your GXM 30, your Garmin unit can receive and use

traffic information. When a traffic message is received, your

unit shows the information on the map; so, if necessary, you

can change your route to avoid a traffic incident.
