Route guidance from an off-road loca-
tion to a destination
If there is no road available on map at cur-
rent position of the car, vehicle is off road.
COMAND is also able to guide you to a des-
tination from such a location.
At the start of the route guidance, you will
see the “Off Road” message and a direc-
tion arrow. The direction arrow shows the
compass heading to the actual destina-
tion.
The route is highlighted blue from the near-
est road known to the system.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance con-
tinues in the usual way.
Route guidance from an off-map loca-
tion to a destination
If the vehicle position is outside the area
covered by the digital map, then the vehi-
cle is in an off-map location.
COMAND is also able to guide you to a des-
tination from such a location.
At the start of the route guidance, you will
see the “Off Map” message and a direction
arrow. The direction arrow shows the com-
pass heading to the actual destination.
The route is highlighted blue from the near-
est road known to the system.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance con-
tinues in the usual way.
Off-road during route guidance
The road layout may differ from the data on
the digital map, due to road construction
measures, for example.
In such cases, the system cannot allocate
the vehicle’s position to the digital map
and the vehicle is therefore in an off-road
position.
The “Off Road” message and an arrow
showing the compass heading to the desti-
nation appear on the display.
As soon as the system can allocate the ve-
hicle position’s to the map again, route
guidance continues in the usual way.
