Further information about
ATTENTION ASSIST can be
found in the vehicle Opera-
tor's Manual. Using car pool lanes
You can include carpool lanes (HOV or car
sharing 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. In California, lone drivers can use
a carpool lane if their vehicle's emission level or fuel consumption is below a fixed thresh-
old.
Carpool lanes may be reserved for specific
times (e.g. during the peak period).
Carpool lanes are indicated by a diamond
symbol on specific road signs and on the road surface. The road signs may also include the
designation 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 Car‐ Use Car‐
pool Lanes
pool Lanes, COMAND uses carpool lanes
when calculating the route. COMAND then
guides you in and out of carpool lanes using
visual and acoustic driving directions.

to navigation (Y page 181). These have their
own symbol and are filed in the Mercedes-
Mercedes-

You can save the imported destinations and
routes as personal POIs and routes
(Y page 98).
When importing routes, please note:
R The Mercedes-Benz Apps may generate a
route based on a different map from the
one used by COMAND. Points on the route
may therefore be situated off the digital
roads. For this reason an imported route
commenced in COMAND may deviate from the original route from the Mercedes-Benz
Apps.
R The Mercedes-Benz Apps minimize the
number of route points offered. For this
reason an imported route commenced in COMAND may deviate from the original
route from the Mercedes-Benz Apps. Selecting and editing personal POIs

Displays during route guidance
Change of direction Changes of direction have three phases:
R preparation phase
R announcement phase
R change-of-direction phase
Changes in direction are also shown in the multifunction display (see the vehicle Operator's
Manual).
Preparation phase: 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", for instance. You see the full-screen map.
Announcement phase: COMAND announces the imminent change of direction. The change
of direction is announced ahead of time, such as with the announcement "Turn right in
200 meters".
The display is now split into two sectors. The map is shown on the left side of the display, and
a detailed image of the intersection or a 3D image of the imminent change of direction is shown on the right side of the display. 0043
