Before you use the navigation system
The route calculated by COMAND is a recommendation
on how to best reach your selected destination.
Warning!
During route guidance, you will not receive any
information on traffic lights, stop or yield signs,
no parking or no stopping zones, one-way streets,
narrow bridges and similar traffic regulation data.
Please always strictly observe traffic regulations
while driving. Traffic regulations always have
priority over any route recommendations given.
Study manual and select route before driving, – do
not watch display screen or operate buttons while
the vehicle is in motion – let voice instructions
guide you. – Stop at a safe location before using
buttons or making corrections. Drive carefully and
always obey traffic laws and road signs even if
they contradict system instructions.
For safety’s sake you should only enter destina-
tions when the vehicle is stationary. When the
vehicle is in motion, a passenger should enter the
destination.
Notes
Warning!
The CD reader contains a Class 1 laser product.
There is a danger of invisible laser radiation if the
cover is opened or damaged.
Do not remove the cover. The CD reader does not
contain any parts which can be serviced by the
user. For safety reasons, have any service work
which may be necessary performed only by
qualified personnel.
The data stored on the original navigation CD is used
for route calculation. Using other navigation CDs might
lead to malfunctions.
Because of changes in local traffic patterns and/or
incomplete data, errors in calculation may occur.
The recommended trip may deviate in this case from
the available traffic pattern, because the data material
stored on the CD represent the local conditions at the
time the CD was produced.

Destination input
The current vehicle position cannot be displayed
exactly in every case. Satellite reception conditions,
road conditions, the condition of the vehicle, etc. could
cause deviations from the actual situation. In this case
enter the current vehicle position manually, page 213.
When the vehicle has been transported by a car train or
a ferry, COMAND will require some time to find its
exact position. In these cases it is often sufficient to
move the vehicle a few yards to receive a complete
route recommendation.
The reception of GPS signals can be unreliable or at
times even impossible:
• When driving between tall buildings, in parking
garages or tunnels, when obstructed by large
vehicles and similar structures
• During electrical storms or very heavy rains
• Satellites may be switched off for checking or repairChanging tires:
We recommend that you have any tire changes done by
a Mercedes-Benz Center. Because COMAND operates
using measurements taken by wheel revolutions, the
tire new size must be entered when the tires are
changed, see calibration on page 213.
Travelling abroad:
If you intend to travel through different regions or
abroad you will need the respective CD. Contact your
Mercedes-Benz Center or the Client Assistance Center
at 1-800-FOR-MERCedes (1-800-367-6372) for the
available CDs.
Remove the actual Navigation CD when you leave a
region or cross the border and insert the Navigation CD
for the region or country you are now in. Notes
