106 Navigation*
Important notes
T
If your vehicle has been transported by a
car, train or ferry, COMAND may require
some time to find its exact position.COMAND may issue navigation announce-
ments not suited to your actual position.
Moving the vehicle a few yards is typically
enough to remedy the situation.
While determining the exact position ,
route guidance is subject to the following
restrictions:
COMAND does not output navigation
announcements.
The display OFF ROAD and an arrow indi-
cating the direction of the destination
appear instead of the detailed naviga-
tion displays.
Once the system is correctly repositioned,
route guidance continues with navigation
announcements and detailed navigation
displays. The following instructions have to be fol-
lowed when interrupting a trip during route
guidance, and later continuation:
Continuation of the trip within 2 hours
after interruption:
The system automatically resumes
route guidance.
Continuation of the trip between
2 and 12 hours after interruption:
Continue route guidance manually
in the Navigation main menu
(
page 108).

disturbed e. g. in parking garages
and tunnels
if road conditions are bad
depending on the vehicle’s condi-
