You can include carpool lanes (HOV or car shar-
ing lanes) in the route calculation.
If you use HOV or carpool lanes, please observe the applicable laws as well as the local and time
limitation conditions.
Carpool lanes may only be used under certain
conditions. They can normally be used when
there are two people in the vehicle. However,
there are also carpool lanes which can only be
used when there are three or more people in the vehicle. If the vehicle's emission or consump-
tion values are below the prescribed levels, lone
drivers may also use the carpool lanes in Cali-
fornia.
Carpool lanes may be reserved for specific
times (e.g. during the peak period).
Carpool lanes are indicated by a diamond sym-
bol on specific road signs and on the road sur-
face. The road signs may also include the des-
ignation CARPOOL. The lanes are arranged as a separate lane next to the others or are built as a
physically separate lane.
Depending on the setting under Use Carpool Use Carpool
Lanes
Lanes, the multimedia system uses carpool
lanes when calculating the route. During route
guidance, visual and audible driving directions
provide guidance into and out of carpool lanes.

General notes Routes are recorded using the SD card.
Requirements: the SD card has the FAT data
system format (e.g. FAT32). When recording the route, bear in mind the fol-
lowing:
R If the SD card is inserted, it must not be
removed during recording.
R If route recording is started manually, it must
be finished manually before the multimedia
system is switched off (e .g. when the engine
is switched off).
R The multimedia system minimizes the num-
ber of route points recorded. Therefore when
the recorded route is subsequently com-
menced, it may differ from the route that was originally recorded.
