4.1.4 Traffic information in route planning (Only some countries and 

regions)

The recommended route is not always the same between two points. Offline 
historical traffic information (historical speed information or traffic patterns) 
can be taken into account in the route calculation based on the time of day 
and the day of week whenever suitable data exists.
It is necessary to set the following to display traffic information on the map.

1.  Press the commander knob with the map screen open to display the 

menu, and select “Traffic Settings” from “Navigation Settings”.

2.  Set either “Flow and Icons”, “Flows Only”, or “Icons Only” in “Show 

Traffic Information”.

3.  Return to “Navigation Settings” and select “SiriusXM Data Settings” to 

turn it on.

A 2D map is displayed with road segments colored by the density of the 
traffic in the given period. The current information is shown when you open 
the screen. Modify the day of week and the time of day to see the desired 
period. 

4.1.4.1 Historical traffic
If historical traffic information is available with the map data, the navigation 
system can use it when planning a route. In normal cases, these statistics help 
you avoid usual traffic jams on the given day of week in the given hour but in 
some cases like on public holidays that fall on normal weekdays, they can be 
misleading. You can disable this feature in Traffic Settings (page 70).
