Dynamic guidance with TMC

With RDS TMC (Traffic Message Channel), the current traffic situation is taken into account when planning the route to your destination. You will be informed, for example, of accidents, congestion or construction sites as soon as such a traffic situation occurs. If you approach the traffic obstruction, the automatic detour option is activated and the navigation system will plan, if required, an alternative route.

✎TMC has not yet been introduced in all countries and is not supported by all RDS stations.

✎In order to be able to use dynamic guidance with TMC, you must have enabled C-IQ data with Traffic info.
