The distance announced before the next
change of direction depends on the type of
road and its permissible maximum speed.
The display is now split into two sectors. In
the left half, you see the normal map view.
The right-hand half shows:
R
an enlarged section of the area around the
intersection (crossing zoom) or
R
a 3D image of the road's course with the
route indicating the next change of direc-
tion
Example: change-of-direction phase
:
Current vehicle position (the tip of the tri-
angle indicates the vehicle’s direction of
travel)
;

the next change of direction

COMAND announces the imminent change of
direction.
Based on the example display below, the
change of direction is announced 150 ft
before the change of direction with the
Now
turn right
message.
The display is split into two halves, as in the
announcement phase.
Once the change of direction is completed,
COMAND automatically switches back to full-
screen display.
