While route calculation is in progress, an
arrow will indicate the direction to your
destination. Below this, you will see a cor-
responding message in the display. Once
the route has been calculated, route guid-
ance begins.
Route calculation takes a certain amount
of time. The time depends on the distance
from the destination, for example. COMAND
calculates the route using the digital map
data. The calculated route may differ from the
actual road situation, e.g. due to road works
or incomplete map data. Please make sure
that you observe the notes about the digital
map (Y page 132). Entering a destination from the desti-
nation memory

memory.
The destination memory list appears either
with or without the input speller. Whether
or not the input speller is displayed
depends on the number of entries in the
destination memory.
i The destination memory always contains
an entry named My address. You may wish
to assign your home address to this entry,
for example (Y page 157). Like any other
entry, the My address entry can be selec-
ted using the input speller or from a list. Destination memory list with the input

try abbreviation for vehicles (e.g. D for Germany, E for Spain, F for France, I for
Italy, etc.)
X COMAND stores the entry as My address
in the destination memory if the address
data is complete and matches the digital
map data.

match the data on the digital map, a mes-
sage will be displayed informing you that
the address is incomplete.

dehumidifies the air inside the vehicle and,
thereby, prevents the windows from misting
up. G
Risk of accident
If you deactivate the cooling function with air
dehumidification, the vehicle will not be
cooled in warm weather and the air will not be
dehumidified. The windows could mist up
more quickly. This may prevent you from
observing the traffic conditions, thereby caus-
ing an accident.

Make sure that all occupants – in particular,
pregnant women – wear their seat belt cor-
rectly at all times.
R The seat belt must pass closely over your
body and must not be twisted. Therefore,
you should avoid wearing bulky clothing
(e.g. a winter coat). The shoulder belt sec-
tion must be routed across the middle of
your shoulder – on no account across your
neck or under your arm – and pulled tight
against your upper body. The lap belt must
always pass across your lap as low down as
possible, i.e. over your hip joints – not
across your abdomen. If necessary, push
down the belt strap slightly and then
retighten it in the roll-up direction.
R Do not route the belt strap across sharp or
fragile objects, especially if these are loca-
ted on or in your clothing, e.g. spectacles,
pens, keys, etc. The seat belt strap could
be damaged and tear in an accident, and
you or other vehicle occupants could be
injured.
R Only one person should use each seat belt
at any one time. Children must never travel
sitting on the lap of other occupants. It
would not be possible to restrain the child
in the event of a sudden change in direc-
tion, braking or an accident. This could
result in severe or even fatal injuries to the
child and other occupants.
R Persons less than 1.50 m tall cannot wear
the seat belts correctly. For this reason,
secure persons less than 1.50 m tall in spe-
cially designed, suitable restraint systems.
R Children less than 1.50 m tall or under
12 years of age cannot wear the seat belts
properly. Therefore, they always should be
secured in a suitable child restraint system
on a suitable vehicle seat. You can find
more information under "Children in the
vehicle" in the "Safety" section of the Own-
er's Manual. Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions when fitting the
child restraint system.
R Do not secure any objects with a seat belt
if the seat belt is also being used by one of
the vehicle's occupants. G
Risk of injury
If the backrest is not almost vertical, the seat
belt does not offer the intended level of pro-
tection. Under certain circumstances, this
could cause severe or even fatal injuries.
Before starting a journey, make sure that the
seat is properly adjusted and that the back-
rest is almost vertical. G
Risk of injury
A dirty or damaged seat belt or a seat belt that
has been subjected to a load in an accident
or which has been modified no longer offers
the intended level of protection. Under certain
circumstances, this could cause severe or
even fatal injuries.
For this reason, check regularly that the seat
belts are not damaged or dirty.
Always have damaged seat belts or seat belts
that have been subjected to a load in an acci-
dent replaced at a qualified specialist work-
shop. Consult a qualified specialist workshop
which has the necessary specialist knowledge
and tools to carry out the work required.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this pur-
pose.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use seat belts which have
been approved by Mercedes-Benz for your
vehicle. 192

Risk of accident
Only adjust the steering wheel when the vehi-
cle is stationary and do not pull away until the
steering wheel adjustment mechanism is
locked in position. Otherwise, you might drive
without the steering wheel adjustment mech-
anism being locked in position and be distrac-
ted from road and traffic conditions by an
unexpected movement of the steering wheel
and cause an accident.
However, the steerability of the vehicle is not
affected.
X Check whether seat =and the head
restraint are adjusted properly
(Y page 183).
Make sure that:
R you are as far away from the driver's front
airbag as possible.
R you are sitting in a normal upright posi-
tion.
R you can fasten the seat belt properly.
R you have moved the backrest to an
almost vertical position.
R you have set the seat angle so that your
thighs are gently supported.
R you can depress the pedals properly.
R you have adjusted the head restraint so
that the back of your head is supported
at eye level by the central area of the
head restraint.
X Check whether steering wheel :is adjus-
ted properly (Y page 187).
Make sure that:
R you can hold the steering wheel with your
arms slightly bent.
R you can move your legs freely.
R you can see all the displays in the instru-
ment cluster clearly.
X Check whether you have fastened seat
belt ;properly (Y page 191). It should:
R
fit snugly across your body.
R be routed across the middle of your
shoulder.
R be routed in your pelvic area across the
hip joints. Lights
Light switch
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you drive with the lights switched
on even during the daytime. In some coun-
tries, daytime operation of headlamps varies
due to legal and voluntary requirements. In
these countries, daytime driving lights are
automatically switched on when the engine is
started.
i If you drive in countries in which traffic
drives on the opposite side of the road to
the country where the vehicle is registered,
oncoming traffic may be dazzled by the
asymmetrical dipped-beam headlamps.
Have the headlamps changed to symmet-
rical dipped beam when driving in these
countries. You can obtain information
about this from any Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre. 1
