Route Guidance to an Off-road
Destination
COMAND can also guide you to destinations
that are within the area covered by the digital
map, but are not themselves included on the
map. Such destinations are off-road
destinations, 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 possible
using navigation announcements and route
guidance displays.

4 Road name, if available
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:
You have reached your destination
area. Please follow the arrow on the
display. When the vehicle comes close to
the destination the message
You have
reached your destination is given.
Route Guidance from an Off-road
Location to a Destination
If the vehicle location is within the area
covered by the digital map, but the map itself
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 arrow
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 guidance
continues in the usual manner.
Route Guidance from an Off-map
Location to a Destination
If the vehicle location is outside the area
covered by the digital map, then the vehicle
is in an off-map position. COMAND can guide
you from such a position 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 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 guidance
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 work.
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.
