system is able to guide you to a destination even
from an off-road location.
At the start of route guidance, you will see the
Road Not Mapped
Road Not Mapped message, an arrow and the
distance to the destination. The arrow shows
the compass heading to the actual destination.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road known
to the system, route guidance continues in the
usual way.
Off-road during route guidance Due to road construction, 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 dig- ital map. The vehicle is therefore in an off-road
position.
In the display, you will then see the Road Not
Road Not
Mapped Mapped 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 con-
tinues in the usual way. Real-time traffic reports

these for route guidance in the navigation sys-
tem. Received traffic reports are displayed on
the map either as text or as symbols. Real-time traffic reports on the map
The multimedia system can show certain traffic
incidents on the map with symbols (type of inci-
dent) and colored lines (extent). Traffic reports
are shown on the map at scales of 1/32 mi to

Avoiding an area
General notes The multimedia system enables you to avoid
areas you do not wish to drive through.
If you activate or deactivate a route block while
route guidance is active, the multimedia system will calculate a new route. If you activate or
deactivate a route block while route guidance is
inactive, the multimedia system will use the new setting for the next route guidance.
The calculated route may include an area to be
avoided if:
R your destination is located in such an area
R there is no alternative route of comparable
length available
Highways within blocked areas are always taken
into consideration in the route calculation.
i Alternatively, you can carry out this opera-
tion using the touchpad (Y page 24).

Introduction The digital maps generated by the map software
become outdated in the same way as conven-
tional road maps. Optimal route guidance can
only be provided by the navigation system in
conjunction with the most up-to-date map soft- ware.
Information about new versions of the digital
map can be obtained from an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. You can have the digital
map updated there using a data medium, or you can update it yourself. 86
