Using car pool lanes
COMAND displays car pool lanes if you have
selected this option in the route options
( Y page 139).
If this is the case, COMAND checks whether
there are any car pool lanes on the route. If
there are, they are taken into account during
route calculation. Route guidance will then
include car pool lanes.
Car pool lanes may only be used under certain
conditions. Please observe the relevant legal
requirements.

Off-road
Important safety note
GWARNING
The COMAND navigation system may direct
you to off-road routes that your vehicle may
not be capable of traversing through without
damaging your tires, wheels or vehicle. It is
the driver's sole responsibility to determine
the suitability of the route. Off-road routes
may be of varying conditions and their
appropriateness for use may be affected by
various factors such as time of day, time of
year and immediate weather conditions that
cannot be judged or taken into consideration
by the COMAND system.
Route guidance to a destination that is not
on a digitized road
COMAND can guide you to destinations
which are within the area covered by the
digital map, but which are not themselves
recorded on the map.
These destinations are known as off-road
destinations, which you can enter using the
map, for example. In these cases, COMAND
guides you for as long as possible with
navigation announcements and displays on
roads known to the system.
Example display: route guidance to an off-road
destination
:Off-road destination;Off-road route section (dashed blue)=Current vehicle position (the tip of the
triangle indicates the vehicle’s direction
of travel)?Off-road (no street names available)
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-hand side, an
arrow appears which points to off-road
Navigation161COMANDZ
Page 164 of 496
destination :. You will hear the
announcement: "Please follow the arrow on
the display".
Route guidance from an off-road location
to a destination
If the vehicle position is within the area
covered by the digital map, but the map does
not contain any information about that
location, the vehicle is in an off-road location.
COMAND is also able to guide you to a
destination even from an off-road location.
At the start of the route guidance, you will see
the Street unknown message, an arrow and
the distance to the destination. The direction
arrow shows the linear direction to the actual
destination.
The continuous blue line on the map starts at
the street which you left last.
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 roadworks, 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
digital map and thus considers the vehicle to
be in an off-road position.
In the display, you will see the Street
unknown message, an arrow and the distance
to the destination. The arrow shows the
compass heading to the last road you were
driving on.
As soon as the system can assign the vehicle
position to the map again, route guidance
continues in the usual way.
Route guidance on roads that are not
completely digitalized
COMAND attempts to avoid roads that have
not been completely digitalized. If the
vehicle's position or the destination is located
in an area that has not been completelydigitalized, then no active route guidance is
performed. Instead, the map shows a dashed
route along the roads and the target direction
is shown with an arrow. You hear the
announcement: "You will enter an area,
where turn-by-turn guidance can not be
provided. Please follow the arrow on the
display". Once these roads have been left,
regular route guidance is resumed.
Traffic reports
Prerequisite
i The SatRadio mode described below
requires optional satellite radio equipment
and a subscription to SIRIUS XM Satellite
Radio Traffic Message Service. Further
details on SatRadio are available in the
"SatRadio" section ( Y page 205).
COMAND can receive traffic reports via
SatRadio and incorporate them in the
navigation system. Traffic messages and map
symbols can then be shown in the COMAND
display.
COMAND uses high quality traffic data.
Nevertheless, there may be differences
between the traffic reports received and the
actual road and traffic conditions.
Switching traffic reports on/off
XTo switch on: set the route type to
Dynamic Route 6
(Y page 139).XTo switch off: select the Fast Route or
Short Route route type (Y page 139).
i
COMAND calculates a new route if you
change the route type setting with route
guidance active. If you change the route
type setting when route guidance is
inactive, COMAND uses the new setting for
the next route guidance.
6 Traffic reports are not available in all countries.162NavigationCOMAND

phone while driving, please use the handsfree
facility and only use the mobile phone when
weather, road, and traffic conditions permit.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the driver from
using a mobile phone while driving a vehicle.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.

Telephony via the Bluetooth ®
interface
Conditions
On the mobile phone
For telephony via COMAND's Bluetooth ®
interface, a Bluetooth ®
-capable mobile
phone is required.
i Not all mobile phones available on the
market are equally suitable. More detailed
information on suitable mobile phones and
on connecting Bluetooth ®
-capable mobile
phones with COMAND can be found on the
Internet at
http://www.mbusa-mobile.com . Or call

(for the USA) or Customer Relations on
1-800-387-0100 (for Canada).
The battery of the mobile phone should
always be kept sufficiently charged in order
to prevent malfunctions.
In preparation for telephoning via the
Bluetooth ®
interface, you should check the
following items on your mobile phone (see the
mobile phone operating instructions):XHands-Free Profile
