I have a problem with the traffic info on my XT.
The traffic info was unreliable so I turned off all traffic alerts in the XT settings but they still pop up on the screen from time to time.
How can I completely stop the traffic alerts appearing?

Do you want to use the weather etc features as well from the Smartphone Link?

It looks to me that only if you disable the Smartphone Link completely will there be no chance of seeing any traffic alerts.

Don't forget that you have the choice to ignore the warnings! If they are infrequent it shouldn't be much of an annoyance.

@wingrider.steve - do you have completely shut down your Zumo XT in the meantime (long press on the on/off button until a dialogue box appeared on the screen and ask for confirmation)?

Had the same problems with traffic information here in Austria and Italy (wrong and overdue informations) and turned off on the Zumo XT - my findings where, that the Zumo XT seems to store the last traffic announcements in memory and only to clear them, when it was shut down completely and restarted again! A short press (standby) does not do it!

Since i've done this, no more informations regarding traffic and the Garmin Drive app is already running - i got weather information and can send/receive tracks/routes/waypoints.
