For this reason, you must always observe
applicable road and traffic rules and
regulations during your journey. Road and
traffic rules and regulations always have
priority over the navigation commands
generated by the system.
COMAND guides you to the destination by
means of driving recommendations in the
form of navigation announcements or route
guidance displays.
i
The route guidance displays only appear
if the display has been switched to
navigation mode.
If, for some reason, you do not follow the
navigation announcements or if you leave the
calculated route, COMAND automatically
calculates a new route to the destination.
If the map data contains corresponding
information during route guidance, COMAND
tries to avoid roads with limited passability,
e.g. roads that are blocked for through-traffic
and are for residents only.
Driving Maneuver
Driving maneuvers are given in three phases:
R
Preparation phase
R
Announcement phase
R
Maneuver phase
Preparation Phase
COMAND prepares you for the next driving
maneuver. Based on the example display
shown below, the announcement is made
using Prepare to turn right. The display
is not split and displays the map over the
entire width.

2
Point at which the driving maneuver takes
place (dot)
3
Current vehicle location, the tip of the
triangle points in the vehicle’s direction of
travel
4

i
Depending on the basic setting selection
in “Information on map” you will see in 4
R

R
Road currently being driven down
R
Geo-coordinate display.
If you have selected the None menu item,
the display is hidden.
Announcement Phase
COMAND announces the imminent driving
maneuver. Based on the example display
shown below, the announcement is made
400 ft. ahead of the driving maneuver using
Please turn left in 400 ft. and
follow the ’road name’.
i
The announced distance to the maneuver
depends on the class of road and its speed
limit category.
The display is now split into two sectors. In
the left half, you see the normal map view.
The right side shows an enlarged section of
the area around the junction (Crossing Zoom)
or a 3D image of the road's course with the
route indicating the next maneuver.
