Avoiding an area
General information
COMAND enables you to avoid areas you do
not wish to drive through.
If you activate or deactivate a route block
while route guidance is active, COMAND will
calculate a new route. If you activate or
deactivate a route block while route guidance
is inactive, COMAND will use the new setting
for the next route guidance.
The calculated route may include an area to
be avoided if:
R your destination is located in such an area.
R the route uses roads that lead through an
area to be avoided.
i Highways within blocked areas are always
taken into consideration in the route
calculation.
