blue from the nearest road known to the sys-
tem. As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance contin-
ues in the usual way.
Off-road position during route guidance Due to road construction work, 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 tem-
porarily be unable to locate the vehicle posi-
tion on the digital map and thus considers the
vehicle to be in an off-road position. The Off
road message and an arrow indicating the
compass heading to the destination appear in
the display. As soon as the system can assign
the vehicle position to the map again, route
guidance continues in the usual way. Navigation announcements

Navigation* (route guidance with
RDS-TMC) Introduction to RDS-TMC
An RDS-TMC radio station transmits free-of-
charge RDS-TMC traffic reports in addition to
the radio programme. COMAND can receive
the RDS-TMC traffic reports and take them
into consideration for dynamic route guid-
ance. Thus, for example, the navigation sys-
tem can guide you around a traffic jam.
In Germany, COMAND uses top-quality traffic
data provided by T-Systems Traffic for the
TMCpro traffic jam warning service. This
information is available nationwide and 24
hours a day. In contrast to the public TMC
service, TMCpro uses reports from public
sources. Moreover, TMCpro utilises exclusive
data from its own automated sensor network
for monitoring traffic conditions. The traffic
announcements which are read over public
radio stations (TA) may differ from TMCpro
traffic announcements. Dynamic route guidance
The Dynamic route is the same type of route
as the Fast route. In addition, COMAND
takes RDS-TMC traffic announcements that
have been received into consideration 23
when calculating the route for dynamic route
guidance. If a quicker route is determined due
to reception of an RDS-TMC traffic announce-
ment, the navigation system changes the
route. If possible, it will bypass blockages.
X To switch on: setDynamic route as the
route type 23
.
Proceed as described in the "Setting the
route type" section (Y page 131).
X To switch off: select a different route type.
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 inac- tive, COMAND uses the new setting for the
next route guidance.
If TMCpro is received, this is indicated by the
TMCpro symbol at the lower right in the dis-
play.
If a public TMC service is received, the TMC
symbol appears at the lower right in the dis-
play.
If RDS-TMC reception is not possible, no sym-
bol will appear. RDS-TMC displays on the map
COMAND can show certain traffic incidents
on the map. These displays can be seen on
map scales 50 m (0.05 miles) to 50 km (50
miles).
X To set the map scale: turncVduntil the
desired map scale is set.
Turning clockwise enlarges the map, turn-
ing anti-clockwise reduces the map. Example display of a traffic jam on the route
:
