How do I navigate with GPS?

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is available at any time, free of charge, and is accurate to within 5m (15ft). GPS navigation is made possible by a network of satellites that orbit the Earth at around 20,200km (12,552mi). Each satellite transmits a range of signals which are utilised by GPS receivers, such as your Mio, to determine an exact location. Although a GPS receiver can detect signals from up to 12 satellites at any time, only four signals are required to provide a position or “GPS fix” (latitude and longitude), for vehicle navigation systems.

How does my Mio receive GPS signals?

Your Mio receives GPS signals via the internal GPS antenna. To guarantee the optimum GPS signal strength, ensure your Mio is outdoors, or in a vehicle outdoors, and has an unobstructed view of the sky. GPS reception is not usually affected by weather, however, very heavy rain or snow may have a negative effect on your reception.

How do I view my GPS status?

You can view your GPS status at any time from the map screens or the Viewfinder screen. ▶ _■■ displays green when a GPS fix is established and red when a GPS fix is unavailable. To indicate the reception strength of a GPS fix, ▶ _■■ displays between one and four green vertical bars.

■ To view your GPS status in more detail, see "GPS Status" on page 81.
■ To set your GPS mode, see "Setting your GPS mode" on page 82.
- For more information about GPS, refer to the GPS Navigation - Frequently Asked Questions guide on the MioMore Desktop DVD.

How do I receive current traffic information? (Select models only)

Note: Traffic information is only available on selected model and in selected countries.

Your Mio can receive current traffic information for all main roads and motorways, enabling you to avoid potential delays on your route. Event messages and traffic icons will display as they occur. If an event message obscures your current location, the map will adjust to display both the message and your location.

How does my Mio receive traffic information?

You can receive current traffic information on your Mio via an optional traffic accessory. The TMC service is subscription-free.

Note: To receive traffic information, you must connect your Mio to the in-car charger.

The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) broadcasts real-time traffic and weather information via the FM Radio Data System (RDS). FM radio stations transmit TMC data on a cycle of several minutes, with hundreds of events able to be broadcast to TMC receivers, such as the Mio Traffic module.

Traffic status

Your current traffic status is indicated by the colour of the TMC icon.

To view your current traffic status from the map screens, tap

Your traffic status is displayed in more detail on the Traffic System Status screen.

How will I know when a Traffic Event occurs?

Incoming events are handled according to your Traffic preferences. For more information, see “Traffic” on page 84.

When travelling through an area in which you can receive traffic status, your Mio will decode these events and display them on-screen. An icon will display at the event location on the map screens, and an audible warning is given if an event is on your route. Where the extent of an event is a specific distance, the road will be highlighted and arrows will indicate the direction affected.

A message will display at the bottom of the screen with the road name, the section of road affected and the type of event that has occurred. The message remains on screen for 8 seconds and is added to the Event List.

How do I view a list of all events on my route?
