Route calculation requires a certain amount
of time. The time depends on the distance from
the destination, for example.
COMAND calculates the route using the digital
map data. The calculated route may differ from
the actual road situation, e.g. due to road con-
struction or incomplete map data. Please make
sure that you observe the notes about the digital
map (
page 159).
i
The destination memory always contains an
entry called “My Address”. You can save your
home address, for example, under this entry
(
page 217).
i
In the list of input characters 4, you can
only select currently selectable characters.
Which characters are included depends on the
sequence in which you have entered your desti-
nation and the content of the destination
memory.
