14.3.4 Traffic information
The Traffic Live service also analyses anonymously collected floating
car data from the many users of the service. This offers for example the
following advantages:
► Obstructions which cause traffic congestion can be detected and
avoided more quickly and more reliably.
► The end of a traffic obstruction is detected more quickly and more
reliably. Unnecessary detours can be avoided.
► Estimated times of arrival can be calculated more precisely.
The Traffic Live service does not change the way you operate the
navigation device; the only difference is the source of reference for the
traffic information.
Note: If you stop using the Live services, you will no longer receive any
traffic information. In this case set the Source of traffic information
setting to radio stations (see"Configuring the Live services" on
page 160).
For details of the TMC function refer to chapter "TMC (Traffic
information)" on page 105.
