Traveling with the Alert Mode On
When you use the TrafficKit in the Alert Mode, the following will occur when new Traffic events are
received:
•
If an event affects your route, a warning message will appear on the screen at a time or
distance defined in the Alert Options menu.
•
If you do not acknowledge the message by pressing the ENTER button, it will
automatically disappear after 10 seconds. Additional warning messages, if any, will
appear in turn on the screen.
•
Events that affect your route will also appear as road signs in the maneuver list, and also
in the lower part of the TrueView screen.
•
The map screen will show road signs corresponding to the Traffic events, including those
which do not affect the route. You can obtain detailed information on any event by
selecting the icon on the map screen. A dialog box will open containing a description of
the event.

If a traffic incident occurs on your route, the traffic alert icon will be displayed in the lower right
