Traffic information during destination 
guidance
If there are traffic obstructions on the planned 
route, the traffic information symbols are dis-
played with a red border.
System response will vary depending on 
whether or not "Dynamic route" is selected, 
refer to page
Displaying traffic obstructions
If a traffic obstruction is reported to the naviga-
tion system and "Dynamic route" is not 
selected, then you will be provided with certain 
information from a distance of approx. 25 miles/
40 km, e.g. the length of the traffic jam.
The last possible junction will be displayed 
shortly before this.
Select "Detour" and press the controller.
The navigation system determines a new route 
to bypass the traffic congestion.
This information is displayed even if you have 
activated a different function on the Control 
Display.
Dynamic route planning
When "Dynamic route" is selected, the route 
will be changed automatically in the event of a 
traffic obstruction. The system does not point 
out traffic obstructions along the original route.
Depending on road type and the kind and extent 
of the traffic obstruction, the calculated route 
may nevertheless lead through the traffic 
obstruction.
