SETTING TMC MESSAGE FILTERING AND DISPLAY

TMC (Traffic Message Channel) messages are traffic and weather condition information, received in real time and passed on to the driver as voice announcements and visual information on the navigation map.

The guidance system may then suggest a diversion route.

1. Press the TRAFFIC key.

The list of TMC messages appears below the "Traffic" menu, sorted by proximity.

2. Press the TRAFFIC button again or select the "Traffic" menu function and press the dial to confirm.

3. Select the filter of your choice:

Messages appear on the map and in the list.

To exit, press ESC.

4. Select the "Geographic filter" function and press the dial to confirm.

5. Then select the filter radius (in km) required for your route and press the dial to confirm.

When all messages on the route are selected, it is recommended to add a geographic filter (within a radius of 5 km, for example) in order to reduce the number of messages displayed on the map. The geographic filter follows the movement of the vehicle.

! The filters are independent and their results are cumulative.

We recommend a filter on the route and a filter around the vehicle of:

• 3 km or 5 km for an area with dense traffic,
• 10 km for an area with normal traffic,
• 50 km for long journeys (motorway).
