Off-road
General notes
The navigation system may guide you to off-
road routes that your vehicle cannot drive on
without causing damage to the tires or wheels
or the vehicle itself. It is the driver’s sole
responsibility to determine the suitability of
the route. The condition of the off-road routes
may vary. The navigability of off-road routes
may be influenced by various factors such as
time of day, time of year and prevailing
weather conditions. The navigation system
cannot judge these factors or take them into
account for route guidance.
Route guidance to an off-road destina-
tion
COMAND can guide you to destinations
which are within the area of the digital map,
but which are not themselves on the map.
These destinations are known as off-road
destinations, which you can enter using the
map, for example. In these cases, COMAND
guides you for as long as possible with navi-
gation announcements and displays on roads
known to the system.
If the vehicle reaches an area which is not part
of the digital map, the display appears as a
split-screen view. On the right, an arrow
appears that points to the off-road destina-
tion. You hear the announcement: "Please
follow the arrow on the display". As the vehi-
cle approaches the destination, you will see a
display to this effect.
Route guidance from an off-road loca-
tion to a destination
Off-road location: the vehicle's position is on
the digital map, but the map does not contain
any information about that location.
COMAND is able to guide you to a destination
even from an off-road location.
At the start of route guidance, you will see the
Road Not Mapped message, an arrow and
the distance to the destination. The arrow
shows the compass heading to the actual
destination.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance contin-
ues in the usual way.
Off-road during route guidance
Due to road construction, for example, there
may be differences between the data on the
digital map and the actual course of the road.
In such cases, the system will temporarily be
unable to locate the vehicle position on the
digital map. The vehicle is therefore in an off-
road position.
