If during route guidance a traffic report is re-
ceived that affects the route being travelled,
an alternative route will be searched for if the
Infotainment system calculates that time can
be saved.
If it calculates that time will not be saved us-

Shortly before arriving at the announced con-
g e

ted traffic, it will be announced once
again.
Avoiding congestion by following the instruc-
tions of a traffic report does not always save
time as the alternate roads may be at a
standstill. The quality of the dynamic route
guidance depends on the information con-
tained in the traffic reports.
The remainder of the route to be travelled
may be manually excluded to cause a new
route calculation  ››› page 46.

Intr oduction Offroad* navigation is a function for offroad
drivin
g th
at provides directions in “non-digi-
tised areas” at low speeds.
Non-digitised areas are areas about which
the system does not have information for the
streets or terrain. It does not detect streets,
buildings or natural limits such as mountains
or rivers, although they may be shown on the
map.
Offroad* navigation is not suitable for driving
on conventional roads as it does not detect
one-way streets, motorway entries or similar.
