About This Product
Traffic Message Channel (TMC) is a system that transmits road traffic information (RDS-TMC) real-time via an FM
broadcast. By connecting this product to your Navigation System, the TMC road traffic information such as congestion,
accidents, or road works can be received by the Navigation system, displayed on the map, and a new route that avoids
the congestion, accident, or road works can be automatically searched (re-route).
l
The supplied information is reference information, and may differ from actual information, or may not be up to date.
l
Panasonic assumes no responsibility for the contents of RDS-TMC.
l
It may take some time for the TMC data to be received.
l
The broadcasting station (frequency) that can be used for RDS-TMC differs depending on the country and region.
l
Depending on the region, TMC may not be supported.
l
Only FM-RDS is supported. Other types of TMC (DAB or satellite radio etc) are not supported.
Preparation:
l
Wipe all dirt (oil, dust, etc.) off the mounting surface, and dry any moisture.
l
If the air temperature is low, use a hair drier, etc. to warm the mounting surface.
Use the sucker to attach the FM antenna
to the windscreen.
Sucker
To anchor the cord, use a commercially available
cord clamper or other such item.
