BMW 5 Series: Destination guidance with traffic
bulletins
Detour suggestions from the navigation system can be manually accepted in the semi-dynamic destination guidance. In the dynamic destination guidance, they are automatically accepted in the route guidance.
Semi-dynamic destination guidance
When traffic bulletin reception is switched on, semi-dynamic destination guidance is active.
The destination guidance system takes the available traffic information into account. A message is displayed depending on the route, the traffic bulletins, and the possible detour routes.
When there is a traffic obstruction, if possible, a detour is offered. In addition, distance and time differences between the original route and the detour are displayed.
To accept the detour:
"Detour"
In the event of special hazards, e. g., objects on the road, a message is displayed without a detour suggestion.
Detours can also be accepted if the traffic messages are called up in the list.
1. "Navigation"
2. "Map"
3. "Traffic Info"
4. "Detour information"
