Off-road Important safety note
G
WARNING
The COMAND navigation system may direct
you to off-road routes that your vehicle may not be capable of traversing through without
damaging your tires, wheels or vehicle. It is
the driver's sole responsibility to determine
the suitability of the route. Off-road routes
may be of varying conditions and their
appropriateness for use may be affected by
various factors such as time of day, time of
year and immediate weather conditions that
cannot be judged or taken into consideration
by the COMAND system.
Route guidance to adestination that is not
on a digitized road
COMAND can guide you to destinations
which are within the area covered by the
digital map, but which are not themselves
recorded on the map.
These destinations are known as off-road
destinations, which you can enter using the
map, for example. In these cases, COMAND
guides you for as long as possible with
navigation announcements and displays on
roads known to the system. Example display: route guidance to an off-road
destination
:
Off-road destination
; Off-road route sectio n(dashed blue)
= Current vehicle position (the tip of the
triangle indicates the vehicle’s direction
of travel)
? Off-road (no street names available)
If the vehicle reaches an area which is not part
of the digital map, the display appears as a
split-screen view. On the right-hand side, an
arrow appears which points to off-road Navigation
