Receiving Traffic Data Using a Traffic Receiver
NOTICE
Heated (metallized) windshields could degrade the performance of the traffic receiver.
A traffic receiver receives traffic data from an over-the-air broadcast signal, where available. To receive over-
the-air traffic data, the device must be connected to vehicle power using a traffic-compatible power cable. A
traffic receiver is included with some product models (Traffic, page 37). .
Traffic data is not available in all areas. For information about traffic coverage areas, go to garmin.com/traffic.
Connect the device to vehicle power using the traffic compatible power cable (Mounting Your Device in an
Automobile, page 8).
If your product model includes traffic data, the vehicle power cable included with your device is traffic
compatible.
When you are within a traffic coverage area, your device can display traffic information and help you avoid
traffic delays.
