TMC (Traffic Information) Basic Operations Viewing device status Important Note Traffic functionality is available as an accessory option. If this service has not been purchased and activated, the TMC icon does not display. For more information, see page 77. The NAVIGON 2100 max/2120 max, with a car charger cable with integrated TMC antenna, provides the navigation system with up to date traffic messages. If necessary, it can alter the route dynamically in order to avoid a traffic jam. Note: This function is only available if TMC traffic messages are being transmitted in the map area in which you are travelling. Traffic messages are not available in all areas. Note: The charger cable does not need to be connected to the vehicle's cigarette lighter for the antenna to be operational. Note: Without the antenna, TMC messages may not be received when the device is operating on battery power only. The TMC symbol can display the following TMC reception status: No Symbol TMC is not operational. Can also indicate the purchased TMC accessory service has not been activated successfully. See "Activating an Optional Accessory Service" on page 11 for more information. Tuning TMC is operational, but cannot find a station that is transmitting TMC signals.
