COMAND Online may give differing driving
recommendations if the data on the digital
map does not correspond to the actual con-
ditions, such as if the road layout has
changed.
For this reason, you must always observe
road and traffic rules and regulations during
your journey. Road and traffic rules and reg-
ulations always have priority over system
driving recommendations.
Route guidance begins once a route has been
calculated (Y page 68).
COMAND Online guides you to your destina-
tion by means of navigation announcements
in the form of audible navigation announce-
ments and route guidance displays.
The route guidance displays can be seen if the
display is switched to navigation mode.
If you do not follow the navigation announce-
ments or if you leave the calculated route,
COMAND Online automatically calculates a
new route to the destination.
If the digital map contains the corresponding
information, the following applies:
R
during route guidance, COMAND Online
tries to avoid roads with restricted access.
Those roads, for example, that are closed
to through-traffic.
R
roads that have time restrictions (e.g.
closed on Sundays and public holidays) are
considered for route guidance on days
when they are open. For this purpose, the
relevant times must be correctly stored in
the database.
