    TomTom TrafficTomTom Traffic is a TomTom Service for receiving up-to-date traffic 
    information. TomTom Traffic requires a wireless data connection (GPRS, 
    EDGE, UMTS, CDMA).
    TomTom Traffic uses the most up-to-date information from the best local 
    sources. For more information about subscribing see tomtom.com/services
    Setting up TomTom Traffic
    1. Tap TomTom Traffic in the Main Menu.
    2. Tap Enable Traffic.
    3. Enter your username and password.
    The Traffic sidebar is shown on the right-hand side of the Driving View and 
    your device retrieves the latest traffic information from TomTom.
    The following symbols are shown at the top of the Traffic sidebar:
    Your device is busy retrieving traffic information.
    Traffic information is up to date.
    Traffic information has not been updated for at least 15 minutes.
    Traffic information has not been updated for at least 30 minutes.

    Using TomTom Traffic
    2. Tap Minimise delays.
    Your device looks for the quickest route to your destination.
    It is possible that the new route may also include traffic delays, or may even 
    be the same route as before. You can re-plan the route to avoid all delays, 
    but this new route will take longer than the quickest route already shown.
    3. Tap Done.
    Updating traffic information
    With TomTom Traffic, there are two ways to update the traffic information:
    •Tap Update traffic info in the Traffic menu.
    • Set Traffic to be updated automatically at regular intervals.
    To do this, tap Change Traffic preferences in the Traffic menu. Select 
    Automatically update traffic info while on route, then tap Done. 
    You are then asked if you want to limit how often Traffic is updated. 
    If you choose not to limit how often Traffic is updated, then TomTom will 
    send updated traffic information to your NAVIGATOR as soon as it is 
    available.
    If you choose to limit how often Traffic is updated, you are asked to set a 
    time.
    TomTom saves this time limit and sends new traffic information at the 
    interval you set. If there is no new traffic information, then TomTom will not  Traffic information has not been updated for at least 45 minutes.
    Traffic information has not been updated for at least one hour.
    No connection is available between your TomTom device and the 
    TomTom Traffic server.
    If you have a route planned, the traffic sidebar warns you about any traffic 
    incidents on your route.
    In this example, there is a traffic jam on your route 9 kilometres ahead that 
    will cause an expected delay of 38 minutes.
    To find the quickest route to your destination, do the following:
    1. Tap the Traffic sidebar.
    Tip: If you have trouble tapping the Traffic sidebar and the Main Menu is 
    being displayed instead of the traffic menu, try tapping your finger half on 
    the Traffic sidebar and half off the screen. 
    						
    							46
    send any information to your NAVIGATOR. This saves you money by not 
    using your wireless data connection when there is no new information. 
    Using traffic information
    Having up-to-date traffic information can help you to reduce your journey 
    time. 
    Whenever you plan a route, the latest traffic updated you received from 
    TomTom is taken into account by your NAVIGATOR when it plans the route.
    Your NAVIGATOR can also recalculate your route if the traffic situation 
    changes after you start a journey:
    1. Tap Change Traffic preferences in the Traffic menu.
    2. Select Automatically optimise route after every update.
    After your NAVIGATOR gets new traffic information, it will automatically 
    optimise your route. 
    Note: The best route may be the same as the route originally planned.

    Important Safety Notices and Warnings
    Global Positioning System
    The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that provides 
    location and timing information around the globe. GPS is operated and 
    controlled under the sole responsibility of the Government of the United 
    States of America which is responsible for its availability and accuracy. Any 
    changes in GPS availability and accuracy, or in environmental conditions, may 
    impact the operation of your TomTom device. TomTom does not accept any 
    liability for the availability and accuracy of GPS.
    Use with Care

    due care and attention. 
    Aircraft and Hospitals
    Use of devices with an antenna is prohibited on most aircraft, in many 
    hospitals and in many other locations. A TomTom device must not be used in 
    these environments.
