While route calculation is in progress, an
arrow will indicate the direction to your
destination. Below this, you will see a cor-
responding message in the display. Once
the route has been calculated, route guid-
ance begins.
Route calculation takes a certain amount
of time. The time depends on the distance
from the destination, for example. COMAND
calculates the route using the digital map
data. The calculated route may differ from the
actual road situation, e.g. due to road works
or incomplete map data. Please make sure
that you observe the notes about the digital
map (Y page 132). Entering a destination from the desti-
nation memory

memory.
The destination memory list appears either
with or without the input speller. Whether
or not the input speller is displayed
depends on the number of entries in the
destination memory.

an entry named My address. You may wish
to assign your home address to this entry,
for example (Y page 157). Like any other
entry, the My address entry can be selec-
ted using the input speller or from a list. Destination memory list with the input
