TomTom Traffic will immediately try to retrieve the latest traffic information. Note: TomTom Traffic retrieves traffic information from TomTom using a wireless data connection on your mobile phone. You must be connected to your phone and you must have a wireless data subscription with your mobile network operator. For information about connecting to your phone, see Hands-free calling on page 45. Updating traffic information If you are using TomTom Traffic, there are two ways to update the traffic information: • Tap Update traffic info in the Traffic menu. • Set Traffic to be updated automatically at regular intervals. To do this, tap Change Traffic preferences in the Traffic menu. Select Automatically update traffic info while on route, then tap Done. You are then asked if you want to limit how often Traffic is updated. If you choose not to limit how often Traffic is updated, then TomTom will send updated traffic information to your RIDER as soon as it is available. If you choose to limit how often Traffic is updated, you are asked to set a time. TomTom saves this time limit and sends new traffic information at the interval you set. If there is no new traffic information, then TomTom will not send any information to your RIDER. This saves you money by not using your wireless data connection when there is no new information. Using traffic information Having up-to-date traffic information can help you to reduce your travel time. Whenever you plan a route, the latest traffic updated you received from TomTom is taken into account by your RIDER when it plans the route. Your RIDER can also recalculate your route if the traffic situation changes after you start a trip: 1. Tap Change Traffic preferences in the Traffic menu. 2. Select Automatically optimize route after every update. After your RIDER gets new traffic information, it will automatically optimize your route. Note: The best route may be the same as the route originally planned. • • 62
