How do I receive current traffic

information via TMC?

Traffic information is available in selected models and countries only.

Your Mio can receive current traffic information for all main roads and motorways, enabling you to avoid

potential delays on your route. Event messages and traffic icons will display as they occur. If an event message

obscures your current location, the map will adjust to display both the message and your location.

How does my Mio receive traffic information?

Depending on your model, you may receive current traffic information on your Mio using the built-in TMC

receiver or via the Mio traffic accessory kit. The traffic accessory kit may be sold separately.

The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) broadcasts real-time traffic information via the FM Radio Data System

(RDS). FM radio stations transmit TMC data on a cycle of several minutes, with hundreds of events able to be

broadcast to TMC receivers.

You have to pay for TMC service in some models and in some countries.

How will I know when a Traffic Event occurs?

When travelling through an area in which you can receive traffic updates, your Mio will decode these events and

display them on-screen. An icon will display at the event location on the map screens, and an audible warning is

given if an event is on your route. Where an event spans a specific distance, the road will be highlighted and

arrows will indicate the direction affected.

A message will display at the bottom of the screen with the road name, the section of road affected and the

type of event that has occurred. The message remains on screen for 8 seconds and is added to the Event list.

Traffic Overview screen

Depending on your Mio model, traffic information may not be available, may require a subscription, or

may require the Traffic Accessory Kit (may be sold separately).

When you see the traffic event message on your driving map screen, you can open the Traffic Overview screen

to display a general overview of the traffic situation on your route, including all events in the immediate

vicinity.
