2014 MERCEDES-BENZ CL-Class navigation system

Carpool lanes may only be used under certain
conditions. Normally you can use these lanes
when two or more occupants are traveling in
the vehicle .However, there are lanes that can
only be used when three or four occupants
(e.g. in New York) travel in the vehicle. In
California, lone drivers can use a carpool lane
if their vehicle's emission level or fuel
consumption is below a fixed threshold.
Carpool lanes may be reserved for specific
times (e.g. during the peak period).
Carpool lanes are identified by HOV symbols
on special road signs and by markings on the
road. The road signs may also include the
designation CARPOOL .T
he lanes are arranged
as a separate lane next to the others or are
built as a physically separate lane.
Depending on the setting under Number ofOccupants in Vehicle , COMAND uses
carpool lanes when calculating the route.
COMAND then guides you in and out of
carpool lanes using visual and acoustic
driving directions. X
In the route settings menu, select Numberof Occupants in Vehicle by turning
