291COMAND Z

COMAND can give incorrect navigation com-
mands if the actual street/traffic situation
does not correspond with the digital map's
data. Digital maps do not cover all areas nor
all routes in an area. 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
road and traffic rules and regulations during
your journey. Road and traffic rules and reg-
ulations always have priority over the sys-
tem's driving recommendations.
Navigation announcements are intended to
direct you while driving without diverting your attention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of con- sulting the map display for directions. Look-
ing at the icons or map display can distract
you from traffic conditions and driving, and
increase the risk of an accident.
General notes Operational readiness of the navigation
system
The navigation system must determine the
position of the vehicle before first use or
whenever operational status is restored.
Therefore, you may have to drive for a while
before precise route guidance is possible.
GPS reception
Among other things, correct functioning of
the navigation system depends on GPS recep-
tion. In certain situations, GPS reception may
be impaired, there may be interference or
there may be no reception at all, e.g. in tun-
nels or parking garages.
i Using roof carriers may impair the correct
functioning of a roof antenna (phone, sat-
ellite radio, GPS).
Entry restriction
On vehicles for certain countries, there is a
restriction on entering data.
The restriction is active from a vehicle speed of above approximately 3 mph (5 km/h).As soon as the speed falls below approximately
2 mph (3 km/h), the restriction becomes
inactive.
When the restriction is active, certain entries cannot be made. This will be indicated by the fact that certain menu items are grayed out
and cannot be selected.
The following entries are not possible, for
example:
R entering the destination city and street
R entering a destination via the map
R entering POIs in the vicinity of a city or via a
name search
R editing entries
R using the number keypad for direct entry
Other entries are possible, such as entering
points of interest in the vicinity of the desti-
nation or current position.

COMAND is also able to guide you to a des-
tination even from an off-road location.
At the start of route guidance, you will see the
Off Mapped Road
Off Mapped Road message, an arrow and
the distance to the destination. The arrow
shows the compass heading to the actual
destination.
The route is highlighted blue, starting from
the last recognized street the vehicle was on before it left the map.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance contin-ues in the usual way.
Route guidance from an off-map location
to a destination
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 an off-
map location.
At the start of route guidance, you will see the
Off Mapped Road
Off Mapped Road message, an arrow and
the distance to the destination. The direction arrow shows the compass heading to the des-tination.
The route is highlighted in blue from the near-
est 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. The vehicle is therefore in an off-
road position.
In the display, you will see the Off Mapped
Off Mapped
Road
Road message, an arrow and the distance to
the destination. The direction arrow shows
the compass heading to the destination. As soon as the system can assign the vehicle
position to the map again, route guidance
continues in the usual way. Traffic reports
Prerequisites i
This function is currently not available for
Canada.
To receive real-time traffic reports via satel-
lite radio, you require: R optional satellite radio equipment
R a subscription to SIRIUS XM Satellite Radio
Traffic Message Service
Further information on satellite radio
(Y page 439).
COMAND can receive traffic reports via sat-
ellite radio and take account of these for
route guidance in the navigation system.
Received traffic reports are displayed on the
map either as text or as symbols.
