COMAND

COMAND can give incorrect navigation com-
mands if the actual street/traff icsituation
does not correspond with the digital map's
data. Dig ital maps donot cover all areas nor
all routes inan area. For example, a route may
have been diverted or the direction of a one-
way street may have changed.
For th isreason, you must always observe
road and traff icrules 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
dire ct you whiledriving 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 cond itions 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 isrestored.
Therefore, you may have to drive for a while
before precise route guidance ispossible.
GPS reception
Among other things, correct functioning of
the navigation system depends on GPS recep-
tion. Incertain situations, GPS reception may
be impaired, there may beinterference or
there may beno reception at all,e.g. in tun-
ne lsor parking garages.
iUsing roof carriers may impair the correct
functioning of a roof antenna (phone, sat-
ellit e radio, GPS).
Entry restriction
On veh icles for certain countries, there isa
restriction on entering data.
The restriction isactive 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:
Rentering the destination city and street
Rentering a destination via the map
Rentering POIs in the vicinity of a city or via a
name search
Rediting entries
Rusing 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.

tination even from an off-road location.
At the start of route guidance, you willsee the
Off Mapped Road
message, an arrow and
the distance to the destination. The arrow
shows the compass heading to the actual
destination.
The route ishighlighted blue, starting from
the last recognized street the vehicle was on before itleft the map.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance contin-
ues inthe usual way.
Route guidance fr oman off-map location
to a destination
If the veh icleposition is outside the area cov-
ered bythe 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 willsee the
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 ishighlighted inblue from the near-
est road known to the system.
As soon as the vehicle isback on a road
known to the system, route guidance contin-
ues inthe usual way.
Off-road du ring route guidance
Due to road works, for example, there may be
diff erences between the data on the digital
map and the actual course of the road.
In such cases, the system will temporarily be
unab leto locate the vehicle position on the
digit al map. The vehicle is therefore in an off-
road position.
In the disp lay, you willsee the Off Mapped
Roadmessage, 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 inthe usual way.
