Route guidance
Route guidance from an off-road posi-
tion to a destination
If the vehicle location is within the area
covered by the digital map, but the map it-
self does not contain any information on
the location, the vehicle is in an off-road
position. COMAND can guide you from
such a position to a destination.
At the start of route guidance you will see
the message “Off Mapped Road”, an arrow
and the distance to the destination. The ar-
row indicates the direction of the actual
destination.
The blue marking for the route on the map
starts from the nearest road known to the
system.
As soon as the vehicle is travelling again on
a road known to the system, route guid-
ance continues in the usual manner.
Route guidance from an off-map posi-
tion to a destination
If the vehicle location is outside the area
covered by the digital map, then the vehi-
cle is in an off-map position.
COMAND can guide you from such a posi-
tion to a destination.
At the start of route guidance you will see
the message “Off Map”, an arrow and the
distance to the destination. The arrow indi-
cates the direction of the actual destina-
tion.
The blue marking for the route on the map
starts from the nearest road known to the
system.
As soon as the vehicle is travelling again on
a road known to the system, route guid-
ance continues in the usual manner.
Off-road during route guidance
The actual path of the road may deviate
from the data in the digital map due to road
works.
In cases like this, the system is temporarily
not able to locate the vehicle location on
the digital map; the vehicle is thus in an off-
road position.
The display then shows the message “Off
Mapped Road”, an arrow and the distance
to the destination. The arrow indicates the
direction of the actual destination.
As soon as the vehicle location is found
again, route guidance continues in the usu-
al manner.

Warning
Navigation announcements are intended to
direct you while driving without diverting
your attention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of
consulting the map display for directions.
Consulting the symbols or map display for
directions may cause you to divert your at-
tention from driving and increase your risk
of an accident.
