Using FM Traffic Traffic in Your Area When you are receiving traffic information, a traffic icon appears in the upper-left corner of the Map page. The traffic icon changes color to indicate the severity of traffic conditions on your route or the road you are currently travelling. Color Description Meaning Traffic is Green Low severity flowing normally. Yellow Medium severity Traffic is slightly congested. Traffic is Red High severity heavily congested or stopped. 36 Traffic on Your Route When calculating your route, the nüvi examines the current traffic and automatically optimizes the route for the shortest time. If a severe traffic delay occurs on your route while you are navigating, the nüvi automatically recalculates the route. You might still be routed through traffic if no better alternative routes exist. Traffic icon If a non-severe traffic delay occurs on your route, touch the traffic icon to display a tab that shows how much time the delay has added to your route. This time is already included in your estimated arrival time. nüvi 1200/1300/1400 Series Owner's Manual
