Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
TMC Reception
The multimedia module (MMM) (16/108) receives traffic information messages (TMC) via the TMC receiver. The signal is transmitted via the antenna amplifier (16/16). Traffic information messages (TMC) are displayed on the display screen (16/46).
TMC is a standardized code system for traffic messages, e. g., information about road construction. The information is shown on the screen and is also used by the navigation function for guiding and if possible avoid closed roads and navigate around back-up traffic (dynamic route guiding).
