Features of your COMAND Online
This Supplement describes all the standard

COMAND Online system may not be equip-
ped with all the features described.
Introduction
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Operating the integrated information systems
and communications equipment in the vehicle
while driving will distract you from traffic con-
ditions. You could then lose control of the
vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate these devices if road traffic con-
ditions permit. If you are unsure about the
surrounding conditions, pull over to a safe
location and make entries only while the vehi-
cle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for
the country in which you are currently driving
when operating COMAND Online.
COMAND Online calculates the route to the
destination without taking account of the fol-
lowing, for example:
traffic lights
R
stop and give way signs
R
parking or stopping restrictions
R
road narrowing
R
other road and traffic rules and regulations
R
COMAND Online may give incorrect driving
recommendations if the data on the digital
Back
Back
and
map does not correspond to the actual con-
ditions. For example, a route may have been
diverted or the direction of a one-way street
may have 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 the sys-
tem's driving recommendations.

The navigation system must determine the
position of the vehicle before first use or
whenever operational status is restored.
Therefore, you may have to drive for a while
before precise route guidance is possible.
GPS reception
Correct functioning of the navigation system
depends, amongst other things, on GPS
reception. In certain situations, GPS recep-
tion may be impaired, there may be interfer-
ence or there may be no reception at all, e.g.
in tunnels or multi-storey car parks.

The functionality of a roof aerial (tele-
phone, GPS) may be impaired if roof carri-
ers are used.
Entry restriction
