Important notes

Important notes
WarningG
For safety reasons, you should only enter a
destination when the vehicle is stationary.
When the vehicle is in motion, a passenger
should enter the destination. Study manual
and select route before driving.
Do not watch display screen or operate but-
tons while the vehicle is in motion - let voice
instructions guide you. Stop at a safe locati-
on before using buttons or making correc-
tions.
Traffic regulations always have priority over
any route recommendations given.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your car is co-
vering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.
The route calculated by COMAND is a re-
commendation on how to best reach your
selected destination.
During route guidance, you will not receive
any information on
Traffic lights
Stop and yield signs
Parking or stopping zones
One-way streets
Narrow bridges
Similar traffic regulation data
You should therefore always strictly observe
traffic regulations while driving. Drive care-
fully and always obey traffic laws and road
signs even if they contradict COMAND in-
structions.
WarningG
The Navigation DVD module contains a
Class 1 laser product. There is a danger of
invisible laser radiation if the cover is ope-
ned or damaged.
Do not remove the cover. The Navigation
DVD module does not contain any parts ser-
viceable by the user. For safety reasons,
have any necessary service work performed
by qualified personnel.
The display unit can cause injury if contac-
ted when open. Return the display unit after
inserting a Navigation DVD to its closed
position (
page 172).

Route guidance
After route calculation, the system assists
route guidance using pictorial displays
(
page 137) and voice instructions. Repeating current voice instructions

Voice instructions
WarningG
Voice instructions are intended to direct you
while driving without diverting your attenti-
on from the road and driving.
Always use this feature instead of consulting
the map display for directions. Consulting
the map displays for directions may cause
you to divert your attention from driving and
increase the risk of an accident.

140 Navigation*
Route guidance
Usually COMAND guides you through fully
digitized areas on verified roads for as long
as possible. Route guidance is conducted
in the usual manner, i.e. with navigation
announcements and route guidance dis-
plays, map or split screen.
The DVD map may contain areas that are
only partially digitized with unverified
roads although they are within a digitized
region.Verified roads
include information about the road’s
average speed, turning restrictions, or
whether it is a one-way street
are typically roads within a
metropolitan area, interstate freeways
or major roads connecting cities
enable reasonably accurate route
calculation and selection
Unverified roads
are roads which lack the expected
road’s average speed and other
attributes
could be smaller city streets and roads
either named incorrectly, have no
name or the name is shown in the
wrong location
may not enable reasonably accurate
route calculation and selection
Partially digitized areas/unverified
roads
WarningG
Due to incomplete digitization, the route
shown on the map may differ from the actual
road/traffic situation.
If you follow the route shown on the map, for
example, it is possible that you could drive
the wrong way down a one-way street, that
a street cannot be driven on or that the road
is of questionable quality.
When using route guidance on a unverified
road in a partially digitized area, you must
therefore be sure to observe all relevant
traffic regulations and the course of the
road.
Drive carefully and keep in mind that all re-
levant traffic regulations and the course of
the road always take priority over the route
shown on the map.

Route guidance
Route guidance in these areas
When you are
entering a partially digitized area
or
starting route guidance within such an
area,
the navigation system will inform you that
turn by turn guidance cannot be provided
with corresponding navigation displays
and voice announcements.Map display
Within these areas the display shows a
split screen with the map on the left-hand
side and a direction arrow on the right side
pointing to the destination instead of the
symbol for the next driving maneuver
(page 142).
Route presentation
Usually the map highlights the active route
on verified roads with a blue line.
After route calculation, the route may
contain unverified road sections. Here, the
exact route guidance is suppressed and
these route sections will appear as blue
dotted lines. This type of line e.g. connects
two verified road sections, which are
displayed as blue lines or connects the end
of a verified road with a stopover or
destination located on an unverified road.
i
Displayed or audible distance to the
beginning of such an area is an
estimation. The actual distance may
differ.
WarningG
If the origin and destination are located very
close to each other, the system may not pro-
vide the shortest path to the destination
when you are travelling in an unverified area.
In most cases you will be directed to a veri-
fied road closest to the destination. This
may appear to be a long and unconvenient
route but it is safer. At your own risk, you
may choose to drive on the unverified roads
to the destination.

Route guidance
OFF ROADIf there is no road shown on map at the
current position, the vehicle is OFF ROAD.
COMAND is able to guide you to an OFF
ROAD destination or from an OFF ROAD
location.
COMAND will inform you with the
OFF
ROAD
indication and the direction arrow
pointing to the destination. Corresponding
announcements may be audiable.

OFF ROAD indication
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance
continues in the usual way.
WarningG
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 ap-
propriateness for use may be affected by va-
rious factors such as time of day, time of
year and immediate weather conditions that
cannot be judged or taken into considerati-
on by the COMAND system.
i
An OFF ROAD destination is not itselve
recorded on the map. You can enter an
OFF ROAD destination using the map,
for example (
page 131).

During route guidance
This function allows you to select an
intermediate destination while route
guidance is active. A stopover destination
may be a gas station or a restaurant or any
other place. When the route to the
stopover destination is calculated, the

stopover destination to the main
destination.
