Route guidance from an off-road loca-
tion to a destination
The vehicle is in an off-road position if the
digital map does not contain any information
regarding the vehicle position. COMAND is
also able to guide you to a destination even
from such a location. The requirement for this
is that the vehicle position is within the area
covered by the digital map. At the start of
route guidance, you will see the Off road
message and an arrow. The arrow shows the
compass heading to the actual destination.
The route is highlighted blue from the nearest
road known to the system. As soon as the
vehicle is back on a road known to the sys-
tem, route guidance continues in the usual
way.
Route guidance from an off-map loca-
tion to a destination
If the vehicle position is outside the area cov-
ered by the digital map, then the vehicle is in
an off-map location. COMAND is also able to
guide you to a destination even from such a
location. At the start of route guidance, you
Version: 2.11.7.7
will see the Off map message and an arrow.
The arrow shows the compass heading to the
actual destination. The route is highlighted
blue from the nearest road known to the sys-
tem. As soon as the vehicle is back on a road
known to the system, route guidance contin-
ues in the usual way.
Off-road position during route guidance
Due to road construction work, 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 tem-
porarily be unable to locate the vehicle posi-
tion on the digital map and thus considers the
vehicle to be in an off-road position. The Off
road message and an arrow indicating the
compass heading to the destination appear in
the display. As soon as the system can assign
the vehicle position to the map again, route
guidance continues in the usual way.
