You will achieve the best sound results by
playing high-quality audio and video DVDs.
MP3 tracks should have a bit rate of at least
128 kbit/s.
Surround-sound playback does not
function for mono signal sources, such as
AM radio mode.
If radio reception is poor, e.g. in a tunnel,
you should switch off Logic 7 ®
, as it may
otherwise switch between stereo and
mono and cause temporary sound
distortions.
On some stereo recordings, the sound
characteristics may differ from
conventional stereo playback.

Individualization
Introduction
You can use the individualization function to
fine tune the Voice Control System to your
voice and therefore improve voice
recognition. This means that other users'
voices will not be recognized as easily. For
this reason this function can be switched off.
Individualization comprises two parts and
takes approximately 5 minutes. It consists of
training the system to recognize a certain
number of digit sequences and voice
commands.
Starting new individualization
Individualization can only be started when the
vehicle is stationary. Before starting, switch
off all devices or functions which could
interfere, such as the radio or the navigation
system. After starting the session, the system
guides you through the training with spoken
instructions.

Navigation
Introduction
Safety notes
GWARNING
For safety reasons, only enter a destination
when the vehicle is stationary. When the
vehicle is in motion, a passenger should enter
the destination. Study manual and select
route before driving.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.
COMAND calculates the route to the
destination without taking account of the
following:
R Traffic lights
R Stop and right-of-way-signs
R Lane merging
R Parking or stopping prohibited areas
R Other road and traffic rules and regulations
R Narrow bridges
GWARNING
COMAND may give incorrect navigation
commands if the data in the digital map does
not correspond with the actual road/traffic
situation. Digital maps do not cover all areas
nor all routes within an area. For example, if
the traffic routing has been changed or the
direction of a one-way road has been
reversed.
For this reason, you must always observe
applicable road and traffic rules and
regulations during your journey. Road and
traffic rules and regulations always have
priority over the navigation commands
generated by the system.
GWARNING
Navigation announcements are intended to
direct you while driving without diverting your
attention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of
consulting the map display for directions.
Looking at the icons or map display can
distract you from traffic conditions and
driving, and increase the risk of an accident.
General information
Operational readiness of the navigation
system
The navigation system must determine the
position of the vehicle before first use or
whenever operational status is restored.
Therefore, you may have to drive for a while
before precise route guidance is possible.
GPS reception
Correct functioning of the navigation system
depends, amongst other things, on GPS
reception. In certain situations, GPS
reception may be impaired, there may be
interference or there may be no reception at
all, e.g. in tunnels or parking garages.
Entry restriction
On vehicles for certain countries, there is a
restriction on entering data.
The restriction is active from a vehicle speed
of over approximately 3 mph (5 km/h). As
soon as speed falls below approximately
2 mph (3 km/h), the restriction becomes
inactive.
When the restriction is active, certain entries
cannot be made. This will be indicated by the
fact that certain menu items are grayed out
and cannot be selected.
The following functions, for example, may
therefore not be available while the vehicle is
in motion:
R entering the destination city and street
R entering a destination via the map
R entering points of interest in the vicinity of
a city or via a name search
R editing entries
R using the number keypad for direct entry

" Route guidance active" means that you have

the route, changes of direction and lane
recommendations. Navigation
announcements guide you to your
destination.

destination has been entered and that no

Basic settings
Route mode
Setting route type and route options
You can select the following route types:
R Fast Route : COMAND calculates the
route with the shortest (minimized) journey
time.
R Dynamic Route : same route type as Fast
Route . In addition, COMAND takes traffic
reports into account during route
guidance 5
. Thus, the navigation system is
able to guide you around a blocked section,
for example. If a faster route is determined
due to a received RDS-TMC traffic
announcement, the navigation system
changes the route. If possible, it will bypass
blocked roads.
R Eco Route : the ECO route is an economical
route that takes traffic announcements
into account (see dynamic route).
R Short Route : COMAND calculates the
route with the shortest possible
(minimized) route distance.
In addition to route types, route options can
also be set.
5 Traffic reports are not available in all countries.136NavigationCOMAND

You can select the following route options:
R Use Carpool Lanes
R Minimize highways
R Minimize Toll Roads
R Minimize Tunnels

If you change the route type and/or the
route options while route guidance is active
(the route has been calculated), COMAND
will calculate a new route.
If you change the route type and/or the
route options while route guidance is
inactive (no destination has been entered
yet), COMAND uses the new setting for the
next route guidance.
i The route calculated may, for example,
include ferry connections, even if the
Minimize Ferries route option is
switched on.
In some cases, e.g. when calculating
particularly long routes, COMAND may not
be able to take all the selected route
options into account. A note then appears
