If there are points of interest, you will see a message to this effect. COMAND may give incorrect navigation commands if the data in the digital map does not correspond with the actual road/ traffic situation. For example, if the traffic routing has been changed or the direction of a oneway road has been reversed. 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. i You also see this message if you have selected the menu item No Symbols under "Map display" (Y page 168). Route guidance General information G Warning COMAND calculates the route to the destination without taking into account the following, for example: RTraffic lights RStop and right-of-way signs RLane merging RParking or stopping prohibited areas ROther road and traffic rules and regulations RNarrow bridges Route guidance begins once a route has been calculated (Y page 141). COMAND guides you to your destination by means of navigation commands in the form of audible navigation announcements and route guidance displays.

If you do not follow the navigation announcements or if you leave the calculated route, COMAND automatically calculates a new route to the destination.

Rroads that have time restrictions (e.g. closed on Sundays and public holidays) are avoided for route guidance. Changing direction Introduction Changes of direction have three phases: RPreparation phase phase RChange-of-direction phase RAnnouncement Z COMAND
