Setting route type and route options
You can select the following route types:
R Fast Route : COMAND calculates a route
with the shortest (minimized) journey time.
R Dynamic Traffic Route : same route
type as Fast Route . In addition, COMAND
takes any traffic reports received with
regard to the route into account during
route guidance. The navigation system can
help you avoid a traffic jam, for example, by
recalculating the route.
R Dynamic TRF. Route After Request :
same route type as Dynamic Traffic
Route . After recalculating the route,
COMAND asks you whether you wish to
adopt the new route or whether you would
prefer to continue along the original route.
R Eco Route : the Eco Route (economic
route) is a variant of the Fast Route route
type. COMAND will attempt to minimize the
journey distance at the expense of a slightly
increased journey time.
R Short Route : COMAND calculates a route
with the shortest possible (minimized)
route distance.
i On very long routes, the "Eco Route" more
or less corresponds to the "Fast Route"
route type.
