Car symbol that appears on an automotive device's map screen

When you are receiving traffic information, a traffic icon (car symbol) appears on the map screen. The traffic icon changes color to indicate the severity of traffic conditions on your route or the road you are currently traveling:

• Green - Low severity meaning traffic is flowing normally
• Yellow - Medium severity meaning traffic is slightly congested
• Red - High severity meaning traffic is heavily congested or stopped

The traffic icon (car symbol) may not display on the map page until at least one traffic event is received. If the traffic icon changes color to yellow or red, and the reported incident is along your route, the road on the map will change to this corresponding color as well.

If these devices are showing a gray traffic icon, the software may be out of date. Please update the software using Garmin Express to remove the gray icon.
