What is TMC?
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a technology for
delivering real-time traffic information to drivers.
The traffic information sent by a TMC radio station is
received and analyzed by the System.
This unit can receive the TMC information provided by
Trafficmaster and V-Trafic. It can also receive free TMC
information.
• TMC is not available in some countries.
• You do not have to tune in to a special radio station
to receive the TMC information.
As the TMC information is transmitted by radio
stations, JVC cannot assume responsibility for the
completeness or accuracy of the information.
