Voice output during route guidance
During the trip, along with the visual information –
symbol or map displays – COMAND also provides all of
the necessary spoken route information via voice output.
Warning!
Voice output is intended to direct you while driving
without diverting your attention from the road and
driving. Please always use this feature instead of
consulting the screen symbols or map for
directions while driving which may cause you to
divert your attention from driving which can
increase your risk of accident.
Spoken recommendations are given:
• when route guidance begins,
• after the route has been calculated,
• before and during a change in the driving direction,
• when the destination or a way point has been
reached.
If an audio source is switched on, e.g. the radio, the
voice output is mixed with that of the audio source. Beginning route guidance
After the route has been calculated, the symbol display
will appear. If you now are at the turn-off point, you
will also hear a voice telling you, e.g. “Please turn
right”.
You can select screen display during the journey:
• Symbol display
• Switch between symbol and map display, page 177
• Route guidance with a mixture of map and symbol
display, page 178

Notes:
In contrast to actually making a turn onto a street
(page 174), the spoken recommendation, e.g. “bear left”
will indicate that the course of the road will soon
change, or the current road intersects another major
road.
In the symbol display the road turn-off (2) indicates the
