within the area covered by the digital map,
even if a destination is not located at a
road known to the system.These destinations are shown 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 announce
-
ments and displays on roads known to the
system.Shortly before you reach the last known
point in the digitized road network, you will
hear the announcement “The destination is
nearby. Follow the arrow on the display”.You will then see an arrow that indicates
the direction to the off-road destination.
When the off-road destination is close to
the road,

When you leave the last known point in the
digitized road network, direction arrows
showing the compass heading to the desti
-
