Route guidance
Important notes
COMAND calculates the route to the
destination withou ttaking accoun tofthe
following, for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and give way signs
R merging lanes
R parking or stopping in a no parking/no
stopping zone
R other road and traffic rules and regulations
R narrow bridges
COMAND may give differing navigation
commands if the actual street/traffic
situation 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 the
system's driving recommendations.
Route guidance begins once aroute has been
calculated (Y page 69).
COMAND guides you to your destination by
means of navigation announcements in the
form of audible navigation announcements
and route guidance displays.
The route guidance displays can be seen if the
display is switched to navigation mode.
If you do not follow the navigation
announcements or if you leave the calculated
route, COMAND automatically calculates a
new route to the destination.
If the digital map contains the corresponding
information, the following applies:
R during route guidance, COMAND tries to
avoid roads with restricted access. Those
roads, for example, that are closed to
through-traffic.
R roads that have time restrictions (e.g.
closed on Sundays and public holidays) are considered 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:
R
preparation phase
R announcement phase
R change-of-direction phase Example: preparation phase
0001

0002 Point at which the change of direction
takes place (light blue dot)
0014 Current vehicle position (the tip of the
triangle indicates the vehicle’s direction
of travel)
0013 Current road
Display 0013depends on the setting selected
for "Map information in the display"
(Y page 111).
COMAND 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. You see the full-scree
nmap. 88

the left and right displays)
i The filled-in section of visual display for
distance 0014gets shorter the nearer you get
to the announced change of direction.
COMAND announces the imminen tchange of
direction. Based on the example display
below, the change of direction is announced
beforehand by the message: Please turnright in 500 ft. and follow the
The distance announced before the next
change of direction depends on the type of
road and its permissible maximum speed.
The display is now split into two sectors. In
the left half, you see the normal map view.
The right-hand half shows:
R an enlarged section of the area around the
intersection (crossing zoom) or
R a 3D image of the road's course with the
route indicating the next change of
direction Example: change-of-direction phase
0001
Current vehicle position (the tip of the
triangle indicates the vehicle’s direction
of travel)
0002 Graphic representation of the distance to
the next change of direction
0014 Distance to the next change of direction
COMAND announces the imminent change of
direction.
Based on the example display below, the
change of direction is announced 150 ft.
before the change of direction with the Now turn right message.
The display is split into two halves, as in the
announcemen tphase.
Once the change of direction is completed,
COMAND automatically switches back to full-
screen display.

COMAND displays lane recommendation 0005,
based on the next two changes of direction.

which the next change of direction is

appropriateness for use may be affected by
various factors such as time of day, time of
year and immediate weather conditions that
canno tbe judged or taken into consideration
by the COMAND system.
Route guidance to a destination that is
not on a digitized road Example: route guidance to an off-road destination
0001 Off-road destination
0002 Off-road route section (blue dashes)
0014 Current vehicle position (the tip of the
triangle indicates the vehicle’s direction
of travel)
0013 Off-road (if available)
COMAND can guide you to destinations
which are within the area of 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.
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 off-road
destination 0001.You will hear the
announcement:" Please follow the arrow on
the display" .As the vehicle approaches the
destination, the Area of destination reached message appears. Route guidance from an off-road
location to
adestination 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 route guidance, you will see the
Off Mapped Road
message, an arrow and
the distance to the destination .The arrow
shows the compass heading to the actual
destination.
The route is highlighted blue, starting from
the last recognized street the vehicle was on
before it left the map.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance
continues in the usual way.
Route guidance from an off-map
location to adestination If the vehicle position is outside the area
covered by the digital map, then the vehicle
is in an off-map location .COMAND is also
able to guide you to a destination even from
an off-map location.
At the start of route guidance, you will see the
Off Mapped Road message, an arrow and
the distance to the destination. The direction
arrow shows the compass heading to the
destination.
The route is highlighted in blue from the
nearest road known to the system.
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 the98

WARNING
If you operate mobile communication
equipment while driving, you will be
distracted from traffic conditions. You could
also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk
of an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the vehicle
is stationary.
If you make a call on your mobile phone while
driving, always use hands-free mode. Only
use the mobile phone when road, weather
and traffic conditions permit. Some
jurisdictions prohibit the driver from using a

(approximately 50 km/h), the vehicle covers
a distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m)
per second.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and the
health of others.
There is scientific discussion surrounding the
possible health risks posed by
electromagnetic fields. You can reduce this
risk by using an exterior antenna.
Therefore, only use mobile communication
equipment if it is connected to the exterior
