Using traffic information
You can view current traffic conditions and in-
formation. When the navigation system re-
ceives updated traffic information, it will
overlay the traffic information on your map
and also display detailed text information
when available.
In the default setting, the navigation system
takes into account traffic information and tries
to avoid traffic congestions and suggest better
routes. Also, when you are traveling along a
route and the system finds another better
route for avoiding the traffic congestion, the
current route will be recalculated automati-
cally.
The term “traffic congestion” in this section in-
dicates the following types of traffic condi-
tions:
— Stop-and-go traffic
— Stopped traffic
— Closed/blocked roads
Viewing the traffic event
Traffic Information is displayed on a screen in
the form of a list. This allows you to check how
many traffic incidents have occurred, their lo-
cation and their distance from your current po-
sition.
