Automatic volume adjustment
General information
With the Automatic Volume Adjustment
function, the volumes of different audio sour-
ces are adjusted for each other, to compen-
sate for relative differences in volume.
For example: changing from a relatively
quiet to a relatively loud radio station. The
volume for both stations sounds the same.
Manual readjustment of the volume is not
required.
The Automatic Volume Adjustment
func-
tion is deactivated ªwhen the vehicle leaves
the factory. Using this function, the dynamic
range of the music is slightly reduced. To
make the most of the audiophile sound qual- ity, it is recommended to leave it off.

Route guidance
General notes
COMAND calculates the route to the destina-
tion without taking account of the following,
for example:
Rtraffic lights
Rstop and yield signs
Rparking or stopping restrictions
Rroad narrowing
Rtemporary traffic rules and regulations
The navigation system can give differing driv-
ing recommendations if the actual street/
traffic situation does not correspond with the
digital map's data. For example, if the road
layout or the direction of a one-way street has
been 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 system
driving recommendations.
Route guidance begins once a route has been
calculated (
Ypage 69).
COMAND guides you to your destination by
means of navigation announcements in the
form of audible navigation announcements
and route guidance displays.
The route guidance displays can be seen if
navigation mode is switched on. If you do not follow the navigation announce-
ments or if you leave the calculated route,
COMAND automatically calculates a new
route to the destination.
If the digital map contains the corresponding
information, the following applies:
Rduring route guidance, COMAND tries to
a
void roads with restricted access. Those
roads, for example, that are closed to
through-traffic.
Rroads that have time restrictions (e.g.
closed on Sundays and public holidays) are considered for route guidance on days
when they are open. For this purpose, the
relevant times must be correctly stored in
the database.
Change of direction
Overview
Changes of direction have three phases:
RPreparation phase
RAnnouncement phase
RChange-of-direction phase
Changes in direction are also shown in the
multifunction display of the instrument clus-
ter (see the vehicle Operator's Manual).
Preparation phase
COMAND prepares you for the upcoming
change of direction, e.g. with the announce-
ment "Prepare to turn right". You see the full- screen map.
