Using FM TMC Trafc
The trafc receiver is included in the nüvi
865 package and is an optional accessory for
the nüvi 855. Visit http://buy.garmin.com for
more information.
If the nüvi is connected to the FM Trafc
Message Channel (TMC) trafc receiver,
connected to vehicle power, and you are in
a coverage area, the nüvi can receive trafc
delay information. For more information,
visit www.garmin.com/trafc.
When calculating your route, the
nüvi examines the current trafc and
automatically optimizes the route for the
shortest time. You might still be routed
through trafc if no alternative roads exist.
If a severe trafc delay occurs on your
route while you are navigating, the nüvi
automatically recalculates the route.
The Map page displays or when
there is trafc on your route. The number in
the icon represents the number of minutes
the trafc has added to your route, which
has been automatically calculated into the
arrival time shown on the map.

service provider.
