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

www.garmin.com/traffic

or

www.garmin.com

for more

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.
