TMC cradle If your navigation device is being used in a TMC cradle, the
system can access current traffic reports and can, if necessary,
dynamically change the route in order, for example, to avoid a
traffic jam. You can show the current valid traffic reports.
Note: compared to the standard cradle, the TMC cradle includes
a module to receive TMC messages. You can recognize the TMC
module from the TMC lettering on the left.

button is not shown.
