Information on traffic obstructions andhazards is continuously updated.Traffic information is displayed on the map bysymbols.For particular dangers, for example objects onthe road, a message is displayed.Some hazard messages are also displayed as aCheck Control message in the instrument clus‐ter.Seite 24NAVIGATION Map26
Display in the map viewSymbol Function Yellow symbol:The expected delay is less than20 minutes. Red symbol:The expected delay is more than20 minutes or the route isclosed or there is a hazard mes‐sage for the route. Grey symbol:The expected delay is more than5 minutes. A suitable diversion is availablewith the traffic information.Real Time Traffic InformationRTTIIn some countries, RTTI is transmitted via addi‐tional bookable services. RTTI is then used anddisplayed instead of the traffic information fromthe radio stations.RTTI enables traffic delays to be located moreaccurately and in greater detail. In addition, thetraffic situation off the motorways, for example,on side streets and urban roads, is extensivelyrecorded and shown. Diversion recommenda‐tions can be calculated more precisely on the ba‐sis of this information. This lowers the risk ofcoming across another traffic obstruction on di‐versions. Several recommended diversions orfurther information may be provided.For journeys in countries where RTTI is not avail‐able, the system continues to use traffic informa‐tion from radio stations, if possible.The function bar of the map view, see page 18,shows whether traffic information from the Traf‐fic Message Channel TMC or RTTI is beingused.Activating/deactivatingThe traffic information services can be activatedor deactivated in the settings, see page 30.Displaying the list of trafficinformation1.
