Recording the route
General notes
Routes are recorded on the SD memory card.
Requirement: the SD memory card is format-
ted using the FAT file system (e.g. FAT32).
When recording the route, bear in mind the
following:
Rif the SD memory card is inserted, it must
not be removed during recording.
Rif route recording is started manually, it
must be finished manually before COMAND
is switched off (e .g. when the engine is
switched off).
RCOMAND minimizes the number of route
points recorded. Therefore when the recor-
ded route is subsequently commenced, it
may differ from the route that was originally
recorded.

ance can only be provided by the navigation
system in conjunction with the most up-to-
date map software.
Information about new versions of the digital
map can be obtained from an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. You can have the dig-
ital map updated there using a data medium,
or you can update it yourself.
For North American countries, it is possible to
update the map data for COMAND free of
charge for a period of three years. Information
on the availability of this service for your vehi- cle can be obtained from your authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Entitlement to the free update
For the first three years after your vehicle is
registered, you are entitled to all available
updates to the map software for COMAND.
They are usually installed during a regular
vehicle service. After this period, you can pur-chase further updates from your authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
The free updates relate to the vehicle and not
to an individual. If there is a change of own-
ership within the three years after first regis-
tration, the new owner is entitled to the map
software updates.
Updating at an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center
If an update for your map software is availa-
ble, you will receive it free of charge at your
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center during
your vehicle's annual service. You can
arrange a separate appointment for this at
your authorized Mercedes-Benz Center on
request.
The update can only be performed:
Rat an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
Rfor navigation data for North America
The map software is not provided on DVD.
Carrying out a manual update
After the free update of the map data has
expired or when buying map data, you can
update the data yourself.
The update process may take some time (up
to 45 minutes), depending on the size of the
digital map. The update will be completed
more quickly if the vehicle is stationary. If you
start the update with the engine switched off
and the starter battery has insufficient power,
COMAND may automatically switch off. This
protects the battery. In order to prevent this,
a suitable power supply to the vehicle must be
maintained.
