Reference Data

Real-time traffic information (TMC)
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) offers real-time traffic conditions. This
can help you to avoid traffic jams that could not be anticipated due to
road closures or accidents.
TMC uses a dedicated FM Radio Data System (RDS) to broadcast realtime traffic and weather reports.
The default settings use traffic information when searching for a route.
The TMC receiver necessary to receive traffic condition reports is built-in
to some products, but not for others. Contact your nearest SUBARU
dealer.
If traffic data normally broadcast in your region can be accessed, this
received information is automatically taken into account. This does not
need to be manually set. FM radio stations broadcasting TMC data are
searched for automatically, and decoded information is immediately
used to search for routes. If traffic information that might affect the
current route is received, a warning is displayed indicating that the
route will be searched for again, and navigation continues using a new,
optimal route taking into account the latest traffic conditions.
By delaying the timing before applying a route that has been searched
again, the user can check the route and fine-tune the details creating
the optimal search results. You can set this from Traffic settings. (See
Page 168.)

When traffic information is being received, a special icon ( ) is
displayed on the map. When there is no traffic information available for
the route, this icon indicates the status of the traffic information
receiver, and when information is received, the type of upcoming traffic
information is displayed.
Road sections affected by traffic conditions are displayed in a different
color on the map, and a small icon representing the type of traffic
condition is displayed above the road.
