For information about FM trafc receivers and coverage areas, see www.garmin.com/trafc. NOTE: Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy of the trafc information. The FM trafc receiver simply receives signals from the trafc service provider and shows that information on your nüvi. NOTE: The FM trafc receiver and nüvi must be in data range of an FM station transmitting TMC data to receive trafc information. NOTE: You can only access the trafc information if the nüvi is connected to an FM trafc receiver.

DRAFT36 nüvi 705 Series Owner’s ManualPlaying Audio Through the Vehicle’s SpeakersFrequency Selection TipsFor best results, select a frequency below 90.1 FM.When searching for an appropriate FM frequency on your FM stereo, look for an unused frequency that has steady, consistent static. If you hear slight noises and sounds in the background of the static, choose a different frequency.As you travel, you might need to change the frequency for the FM transmitter. A frequency not used by a radio station in your area might be used by a station elsewhere. FM Transmitter InformationThe FM transmitter is intended to transmit your nüvi’s audio to your FM stereo.Do not adjust your FM settings while you are driving your vehicle. The distance between the vehicle power cable, the nüvi, and the FM stereo antenna may also affect the noise level. Vehicles with antennas located far away, such as a rear-mounted antenna, may experience more interference from outside noise sources than vehicles with front-mounted antennas.As you drive, you may notice changes in the background static even though there is no FM station using that channel. You may notice this as you drive through intersections where certain kinds of trafc lights or other municipal electronic systems are operating. You might also notice this effect when the terrain changes, allowing distant stations to be received by your car stereo that were not received when you made your initial frequency selection. These and other sources of electrical interference may make it necessary to look for another frequency.
