Traffic NOTICE Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy or timeliness of the traffic information. Your device can provide information about traffic on the road ahead or on your route. You can set your device to avoid traffic when calculating routes, and to find a new route to your destination if a large traffic delay occurs on your active route (Traffic Settings, page 25). The traffic map allows you to browse the map for traffic delays in your area. To provide traffic information, your device must be receiving traffic data. • All product models can receive traffic data using an over-the-air traffic receiver accessory. Go to your product page at garmin.com to find and purchase a compatible traffic receiver accessory. Traffic data is not available in all areas. For information about traffic coverage areas, go to garmin.com/traffic. Receiving Traffic Data Using a Traffic Receiver NOTICE Heated (metallized) windshields could degrade the performance of the traffic receiver. A traffic receiver receives traffic data from an over-the-air broadcast signal, where available. To receive overthe-air traffic data, the device must be connected to vehicle power using a traffic-compatible power cable. A traffic receiver is included with some product models (Traffic, page 21). If your product model does not include a traffic receiver, you can go to your product page at garmin.com to find and purchase a compatible traffic receiver cable accessory. Traffic data is not available in all areas. For information about traffic coverage areas, go to garmin.com/traffic. Connect the device to vehicle power using the traffic compatible power cable (Mounting Considerations, page 1). If your product model includes traffic data, the vehicle power cable included with your device is traffic compatible. If you purchased a traffic receiver cable as an accessory, you should use the accessory cable to connect the device to vehicle power. When you are within a traffic coverage area, your device can display traffic information and help you avoid traffic delays. Enabling Traffic Before you can enable traffic, you must connect your device to a compatible traffic receiver cable (Receiving Traffic Data Using a Traffic Receiver, page 21). You can enable or disable traffic data. 1 Select Settings > Traffic. 2 Select the Traffic check box.
