Using FM TMC Traffic
notice
Heated (metallized) windows could
degrade the performance of the traffic
receiver.
NOTE: Garmin is not responsible
for the accuracy of the traffic
information.
The FM Traffic Message Channel
(TMC) traffic receiver is included in
some nüvi packages.
To receive traffic information, the
traffic receiver and the nüvi must be
within data range of an FM station
transmitting TMC data. You do not
need to activate the subscription
included with your FM traffic
receiver. The subscription activates
automatically after your nüvi acquires
satellite signals while receiving traffic
signals from the pay service provider.
Go to
information.
If a severe traffic delay occurs on
your route while you are navigating,
the nüvi automatically recalculates
the route. The traffic icon changes
color to indicate the severity of traffic
conditions on your route or on the
road you are currently traveling.
