unable to continue
route guidance after
the journey has been
interrupted. Route guidance is cancelled if you interrupt the journey for more
than two hours.
"Interrupting the journey" refers to stopping the vehicle.
"Continuing route guidance" refers to switching COMAND Online

unable to determine
the vehicle's position. COMAND Online has to redetermine the position of the vehicle if
the vehicle has been transported.
Examples:
R after transporting the vehicle by ferry
R after transporting the vehicle by motorail
R after the vehicle has been towed
X Start the vehicle and pull away.
COMAND Online determines the vehicle's position. Depending
on the driving situation, this may take some time.
Route guidance may be restricted during the determination of
the vehicle's position.
When positioning is complete, route guidance is resumed with
navigation announcements and route guidance displays. Navigation
