Using FM TMC Trafc
Using FM TMC Trafc
Some aera models can receive FM TMC
(Trafc Message Channel) trafc depending
upon the trafc receiver connected to your
aera. See page iv.
NOTE: Garmin is not responsible for the
accuracy of the trafc information.
The FM TMC trafc receiver is an optional
accessory. FM TMC trafc receivers receive
trafc information that is broadcast over the
FM Radio Data System.
The FM TMC subscription activates
automatically after your Garmin GPS device
acquires satellite signals while receiving
trafc signals from the service provider. You
can add other FM TMC subscriptions at any
time. Check the Garmin Web site at
www.garmin.com/fmtrafc for other
available services.
