Traffic on Your Route Traffic Flow Color Code When calculating your route, the Navigation Portable Pro examines the current traffic delays and automatically optimizes the route for the shortest time. You might still be routed through traffic if it is the best route available or if no alternative roads exist. If a severe traffic delay occurs on your route while you are navigating, the Navigation Portable Pro automatically recalculates the route to avoid the severe delay. The Map page displays when a traffic delay is on your route. The number in the icon represents the time this delay added to your route. The delay time has been automatically calculated into the arrival time shown on the map. The colored roads on the map indicate traffic flow. Green = Low severity; traffic is flowing normally. Yellow = Medium severity; traffic is a bit congested. Red = High severity; traffic is heavily congested or stopped.
