Traffic Information

Using the built-in FM traffic receiver, the navigation system can receive and use traffic information. When a traffic message is received, you can see the event on the map and change your route to avoid the traffic incident. The DNX5180 does not have an FM traffic receiver. Traffic information is not available in all areas.

Understanding FM TMC Traffic

FM TMC traffic receivers receive traffic information that is broadcast over the FM Radio Data System. The FM TMC subscription activates automatically after your navigation system acquires satellite signals while receiving traffic signals from the service provider. You can add other FM TMC subscriptions at any time. Check the Garmin

Web site at www.garmin.com/kenwood for other available services.

Traffic in Your Area

When you are receiving traffic information, a traffic icon appears in the upper-left corner of the Map page. The traffic icon changes color to indicate the severity of traffic conditions on your route or on the road you are currently traveling.

Color	Description	Meaning
Green	Low severity	Traffic is flowing
		normally.
Yellow	Medium	Traffic is slightly
	severity	congested.
Red	High severity	Traffic is heavily
		congested or
		stopped.
Gray	No data	Traffic data has
		not updated.

Traffic on Your Route

When calculating your route, the navigation system 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, the navigation system automatically recalculates the route. You might still be routed through traffic if no better alternative routes exist.

If a non-severe traffic delay occurs on your route, the traffic icon shows how much time the delay has added to your route. This time is already included in your estimated arrival time.

To manually avoid traffic on your route:

1On the Map page, touch the traffic icon.

2Touch Traffic On Route.

3Touch the arrows to view other traffic delays on your route, if necessary.

4Touch Avoid to avoid the traffic delay.

Viewing the Traffic Map

The traffic map shows color-coded traffic flow and delays on nearby roads.

1On the Map page, touch the traffic icon.

2Touch Show Traffic Map to view the traffic incidents on a map.

⁄

•To return to the normal map from the traffic map, touch the traffic icon, and touch Show Normal Map.
