You need an optional TMC receiver (Clarion FM9) attached to your N.I.C.E 430 to
receive TMC information. If public TMC data is broadcast at your location, N.I.C.E
430 will automatically take into account the TMC information received. You do not
need to set anything in the program. The receiver will automatically search the FM
radio stations for TMC data, and the decoded information will immediately be used in
route planning. The moment N.I.C.E 430 receives traffic information that may affect
your route, the program will warn you that it is recalculating the route, and navigation
will continue with a new route that is optimal considering the most up-to-date traffic
conditions.
