accessory for all models.

• The device must be connected to vehicle power to receive
traffic information.

• The powered traffic receiver and the device must be in data
range of a station transmitting traffic data to receive traffic
information.

• You do not need to activate the subscription included with
your traffic receiver.

10 About Traffic

About the Traffic Icon

When you are receiving traffic information, a traffic icon appears
on the map. The traffic icon changes color to indicate the
severity of traffic conditions.

Gray: Traffic information is not available.
Green: Traffic is flowing freely.
Red: Traffic is not moving or moving very slowly. There is a

severe delay.

Yellow: Traffic is moving, but there is a delay. There is

moderate traffic congestion.

Traffic on Your Route

When calculating your route, the device examines the current
traffic and automatically optimizes the route for the shortest
time. If a severe traffic delay occurs on your route while you are
navigating, your device 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.

Your device may route you through a traffic delay if a better
alternative route does not exist. The delay time is added into
your estimated time of arrival automatically.
