Re-routing Mode: This mode will reroute the vehicle if a TMC event impacts the route and a faster alternative route is available.

Please read the following statements before using the TrafficKit.

1.

You can enable and disable TMC event categories. By default, all categories are enabled.

2.

Selected TMC events will either alert and/or re-route you depending on the operating mode.

3.

All selected event categories will be displayed on the map screen in the form of traffic event icons.

4.

If you are not routing to a destination, the RDS function will only display TMC events on the map screen.

In the Magellan RoadMate, TMC events that impact your route can be processed in one of the following two modes:

•

Re-routing Mode. (Default) TMC events affecting your route will trigger the Magellan RoadMate to automatically 

calculate a new route, if a faster alternative route is available.

•

Alert Mode. You will receive reports on TMC events affecting your route in the form of warning messages on the 

Magellan RoadMate screen.

How to set and use these two operating modes is discussed in the next chapters.

You may choose the TMC event categories you would like to be informed of as they occur:

1.

Access the 

Navigation Options.

2.

Scroll down the list and select 

3.

Select 

4.

In the displayed list, check all categories of TMC events (incidents) that you would like the Magellan RoadMate 
to process and deselect events that are of no interest. Use the Down button to scroll to the bottom of the list. 
For optimum routing Magellan recommends that you leave all of the boxes checked.

The existing categories of TMC events are listed at the beginning of this manual in 
the Glossary.
Checking an option in this list implies that:

•

The Magellan RoadMate’s map screen will show ALL of the received 

events pertaining to this category at their respective locations.

•

Any event from this category that occurs along the route will trigger the 

calculation of an alternative route if the Magellan RoadMate decides 
that the alternative route is faster.

Save button to confirm all of your choices.
