Traffic Information

Using an optional FM Traffic Receiver, the navigation system can receive and use traffic information.
When a traffic message is received, you can see
the event on the map and change your route to
avoid the traffic incident.
For more information about the FM Traffic
Receiver, visit the Garmin Web site at
www.garmin.com/traffic. For participating FM
subscription providers and covered cities, refer to
