Safety notes
G
Risk of accident
For safety reasons, only enter a new destina-
tion when the vehicle is stationary. You may
otherwise be distracted from the traffic con-
ditions, cause an accident and injure yourself
and others.
COMAND calculates the route to the destina-
tion without taking account of the following,
for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and give way signs
R parking or stopping restrictions
R lane narrowing
R other road and traffic rules and regulations
COMAND may give incorrect driving recom-
mendations if the data on the digital map does
not correspond to the actual conditions. For
example, a route may have been diverted or
the direction of a one-way street may have
changed.
For this reason, you must always observe the
respective road and traffic rules and regula-
tions during your journey. Road and traffic
rules and regulations always have priority
over system driving recommendations. 78

linear distance to the destination is shown.
In this case, the display will be greyed out.
i 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.

General notes
G
Risk of accident
COMAND calculates the route to the destina-
tion without taking account of the following,
for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and give way signs
R parking or stopping restrictions
R lane narrowing
R other road and traffic rules and regulations
COMAND may give incorrect driving recom-
mendations if the data on the digital map does
not correspond to the actual conditions, e.g.
the road layouth as changed.
For this reason, you must always observe the
respective road and traffic rules and regula-
tions during your journey. Road and traffic
rules and regulations always have priority
ove rsystem driving recommendations.
COMAND guides you to your destination by
means of navigation commands in the form
of audible navigation announcements and
route guidance displays.
i The route guidance displays can only be
see nift he display is switched to navigation
mode.
If, for any reason, you do not follow the navi-
gation announcements or if you leave the cal-
culated route, COMAND automatically calcu-
lates a new route to the destination.
If the map data contains the relevant infor-
mation, COMAND tries to avoid roads that
only have limited access, e.g. roads closed to
through traffic and non-residents.
Roads that have time restrictions (e.g. closed
on Sundays or publich olidays) are not taken
into account for route guidance unless the
digital map contains the relevant information. Navigation system (route guidance)

to the destination or to the intermediate stop,
if this was configured (Y page 104). The direc-
tional arrow shows the linea rdirection of the
destination. The distance and the estimated
arrival time are displayed in grey in this case.
The route is highlighted blue, starting from
the last recognised street the vehicle was on
before it left the map.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a digitised
road, the distance to the destination appears,
based on the calculated route. Route guid-
ance continues in the usual way.
Route guidance from an off-map loca-
tion to adestination If the vehicle position is outside the area cov-
ered by the digital map, then the vehicle is in
an off-map location. COMAND is also able to
guide you to a destination even from such a
location.
At the start of route guidance you will see the
Off road message, a directio narrow and the
linea rdistance to the destination or to the
intermediate stop, if this has been config-
ured. The arrow shows the compass heading
to the road left last.
The route is highlighted blue fro mthe nearest
road known to the system.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance contin-
ues in the usual way.
Off-road during route guidance Due to roadworks, for example, there may be
differences between the data on the digital
map and the actual course of the road.
In such cases, the system will temporarily be
unable to locate the vehicle position on the
digital map and thus considers the vehicle to
be in an off-road position.
You will see the Off roadmessage in the
display, a direction arrow and the distance to
the destination or to the intermediate stop, if
this was configured. As soon as the system can assign the vehicle
position to the map again, route guidance
continues in the usual way. Navigation announcements
i Audible navigation announcements are
muted during a telephone call.
If you have missed an announcement, you can
call up the current announcement at any
time.
X To call up the current announcement:
select 0025in the map display with the menu

X To switch off navigation announce-
ments: during the announcement, press

ments: adjust the volume during the auto-
matic announcement (Y page 67).
