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 21). 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.

• Your device receives free traffic data through the

Smartphone Link app (Receiving Traffic Data Using

Smartphone Link, page 15).

• All product models can receive traffic data using an over-the-

air traffic receiver cable accessory (Receiving Traffic Data

Using a Traffic Receiver, page 15). 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 www.garmin.com/traffic.

Smartphone Link app.

Receiving Traffic Data Using a Traffic

Receiver

NOTICE

Heated (metallized) windshields could degrade the performance

of the traffic receiver.

broadcast signal, where available. An over-the-air traffic receiver

cable is available as an accessory for all product models. 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.

Connect the device to vehicle power using the traffic receiver

cable (Mounting and Powering the dēzl Device in Your

Vehicle, page 1).

When you are within a traffic coverage area, your device can

display traffic information and help you avoid traffic delays.
