Route guidance
Once you have reached your destination, a
checkered flag is displayed and route guid-
ance is ended automatically.
Route guidance to an off-road destina-
tion
COMAND can also guide you to destina-
tions that are within the area covered by
the digital map, but are not themselves in-
cluded on the map.
Such destinations are off-road destina-
tions, which you can enter, for example, by
entering the destination via the map.
In this case, COMAND guides you on roads
known to the system for as long as possi-
ble using navigation announcements and
route guidance displays.
1 Off-road destination
2 Off-road route segment (dashed line)
3 Current vehicle location, tip of the tri-
angle points in the vehicle’s direction
of travel
4 Off-road, no road name available
Just before reaching the last known point
on the map, the message “You will enter an
area with unreliable map data in xx miles” is
announced.
When the vehicle is entering the area that
is not covered by the digital map, the
screen is split. On the right half of the
screen an arrow appears that points to the
off-road destination
1
and the system
announces: “Please follow the arrow on the
display”. When the vehicle comes close to
the destination the message “Destination
region reached” is given.

Warning
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
various factors such as time of day, time of
year and immediate weather conditions that
cannot be judged or taken into consider-
ation by the COMAND system.
