Destination guidance in non-digitalized map area, function - GF82.61-P-4001PMU

MODELS 203.0 /2 /7 as of 24.4.04 with CODE (530) COMAND APS USA (with navigation system) 

During trips outside of the digitized map area (e.g. private grounds, parking buildings, country lanes, etc.), but still within the Digital Versatile Disk (DVD) map boundaries, the navigation processor of the COMAND operating, display and control unit (A40/3) switches over to "Navigation in non-digitized map area". The following message appears on the COMAND operating, display and control unit (A40/3) display:

• "OFFROAD"

The following is displayed if the vehicle is outside of the DVD map border (outside the country):

• "OFFMAP"

In both cases only a basic position finding (dead reckoning) with correction is performed by the global positioning system (GPS).

A (limited) route guidance can be conducted only with specification of the:

• Distance from the destination as the crow flies
• Direction to the destination (as an arrow)

After reentering the digitized map area, the system automatically continues with "Destination guidance in digitized map area". The GPS position is used to help determine the roads on which the vehicle could be located. During this process a slight delay in the route guidance may result.

When the message "OFF MAP" appears, complete destination guidance can be continued by inserting the proper DVD for the foreign country.
