Starting route calculation

You can now have COMAND calculate the
route to the address entered or save the
address first, e.g. as your home address (My
address) ( page 160).

COMAND checks whether the destination is
unambiguous. If the destination is
ambiguous, further information is requested
to define the destination unambiguously, e.g.
an area of city or a zip code.

by pressing W.
If no other route has been calculated, route
calculation starts immediately (Option 1). If
another route has already been calculated
(route guidance is active), a prompt
appears (option 2).
Option 1 – no route guidance active: route
calculation starts. While route calculation is
in progress, an arrow will indicate the
direction to your destination. Below this, you
will see a message, e.g. Fast route is
being calculated.
Once the route has been calculated, route
guidance begins. If the vehicle is traveling on
a non-digitized road, the system displays the
linear distance to the destination, the
direction of the destination and the
Unknown message. In this case, the display
will be grayed out.
Option 2 – route guidance is already
active: if route guidance is already active, a
prompt will appear asking whether you wish
to terminate the currently active route
guidance.
Select Yes or No and press W to confirm.
X
If you select Yes, COMAND will stop route
guidance and start route calculation for the
new destination.
If you select No, COMAND will continue
with the active route guidance.
i
Route calculation takes a certain amount
of time. The time depends on the distance
from the destination, for example.
COMAND calculates the route using the
digital map data.
The calculated route may differ from the
ideal route, e.g. due to roadwork or
incomplete map data. Please also refer to
the notes about the digital map
( page 192).

Entering and saving your home address
You can either enter your home address for
the first time (option 1) or edit a previously
stored home address (option 2).
