Traffic information
antenna placement, vehicle features such as windshield reflective shielding,
the surrounding environment such as mountains and high buildings, and RDS-
TMC Radio station transmission signal strength.
Some vehicles have a heat reflective shield embedded in the windshield,
which may prevent a navigation device from locating your current position.
The Traffic Message Channel (TMC)
TMC transmits traffic information as a radio signal and is available free-of-
charge in many countries.
Note: TomTom is not responsible for the availability or quality of traffic
information provided by TMC.
TMC is not available in all countries or regions. Visit www.tomtom.com/plus
to check for availability in your country or region.
Using Traffic
When you connect the RDS-TMC Traffic Receiver antenna, the Traffic bar is
shown on the right-hand side of the Driving View and your TomTom begins
retrieval of the latest traffic information.

your TomTom device is switched off.
1. Attach the TomTom device to the Windshield Holder.
2. Plug the TMC receiver into your TomTom device or the Windshield Holder,
depending on your product.
