Mercedes-Benz C-Coupe 2012 COMAND Manual - Manual (Page 55)

Setting the number of persons in the
vehicle for the use of carpool lanes
For route calculation, you can take HOV or
carpool lanes into account.
If you use HOV or carpool lanes, please
observe the applicable laws as well as the
local and time limitation conditions.
Carpool lanes may only be used under certain
conditions. Normally you can use these lanes
when two people are traveling in the vehicle.
However, there are lanes that can only be
used when three or four people (e.g. in New
York) travel in the vehicle. In California, lone
drivers can use a carpool lane if their vehicle's
emission level/fuel consumption is below a
fixed threshold.
Carpool lanes may be reserved for specific
times (e.g. during the peak period).
Carpool lanes are identified by HOV symbols
on special road signs and by markings on the
road. On the road signs, you may also see the
word CARPOOL . The lanes are arranged as a
separate lane next to the others or are built
as a physically separate lane.
Depending upon the
Number of Occupants
in Vehicle setting, COMAND uses HOV or
carpool lanes when calculating a route.
COMAND then guides you with visual and
acoustic driving instructions onto or away
from HOV or carpool lanes.
X In the Route Settings menu, select Number
of Occupants in Vehicle by turning
cVd the COMAND controller.
X Press W the COMAND controller.
X Select 1 , 2 or More than 2 by turning
cVd and confirm by pressing W.
The # dot indicates the current setting.
