Using FM Traffic

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

time the delay has added to your
