Navigation
Rroad narrowing
Rtemporary traffic rules and regulations
The navigation system can give differing driving
recommendations if the actual street/traffic sit-
uation 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 regulations
always have priority over system driving recom-
mendations.
Route guidance begins once a route has been
calculated (
Ypage 74).
The navigation system guides you to your des-
tination by means of driving recommendations
in the form of audible navigation announce-
ments and route guidance displays. The route guidance displays can be seen if nav-
igation mode is switched on.
If you do not follow the navigation announce-
ments or if you leave the calculated route, the
navigation system automatically calculates a
new route to the destination.
If the digital map contains the corresponding
information, the following applies:
RDuring route guidance, the navigation system
tries to avoid 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 consid-
ered for route guidance on days when they are
open. For this purpose, the relevant times
must be correctly stored in the database.
Displays during route guidance
Change of direction
Changes of direction have three phases:
RPreparation phase
RAnnouncement phase
RChange-of-direction phase
Changes in direction are also shown in the multifunction display (see the vehicle Operator's Man-
ual).
Preparation phase: the navigation system prepares you for the upcoming change of direction.
Based on the example display below, the change of direction is announced by the "Prepare to turn
right message", for instance. You see the full-screen map.
Announcement phase: the navigation system announces the imminent change of direction. The
change of direction is announced ahead of time, such as with the announcement "Turn right in
0.5 miles".
The display is now split into two sectors. The map is shown on the left side of the display, and a
detailed image of the intersection or a 3D image of the imminent change of direction is shown on
the right side of the display.

Off-road
General notes
The navigation system may guide you to off-road
routes that your vehicle cannot drive on without
causing damage to the tires and wheels or the
vehicle itself. It is the driver’s sole responsibility to determine the suitability of the route. The
condition of the off-road routes may vary, and
their driveability may be affected by different
factors such as time of day, season and current
weather conditions, which the navigation sys-
tem cannot judge or take into account.
Route guidance to an off-road destina-
tion
The navigation system can also guide you to
destinations which are within the area of the
digital map, but which are not themselves on the
map.
These destinations are known as off-road des-
tinations, which you can enter using the map, for
example. In these cases, the navigation system
guides you for as long as possible with naviga-
tion announcements and displays on roads
known to the system.
If the vehicle reaches an area which is not part of the digital map, the display appears as a split-
screen view. On the right, an arrow appears that
points to the off-road destination. You will hear
the announcement: "Please follow the arrow on
the display". As the vehicle approaches the des- tination, you will see a display to this effect.
Route guidance from an off-road loca-
tion to a destination
Off-road location: the vehicle's position is on the
digital map, but the map does not contain any
information about that location. The navigation
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
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
Mappedmessage, 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.
