Your COMAND equipment
These operating instructions describe all
standard and optional equipment available
for your COMAND system at the time of
purchase. Country-specific differences are
possible. Please note that your
COMAND system may not be equipped with
all the features described. This also applies to
safety-relevant systems and functions.
Therefore, the equipment on your COMAND
system may differ from that in the
descriptions and illustrations. Should you
have any questions concerning equipment
and operation, please consult an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. Introduction
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you operate information systems and
communication equipment integrated in the
vehicle while driving, you will be distracted
from traffic conditions. You could also lose
control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traffic conditions and operate the
equipment when the vehicle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for
the country in which you are currently driving
when operating COMAND.
COMAND calculates the route to the
destination without taking account of the
following, for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and give way signs
R merging lanes
R parking or stopping in a no parking/no
stopping zone R
other road and traffic rules and regulations
R narrow bridges
COMAND can give incorrect navigation
commands if the actual street/traffic
situation does not correspond with the digital
map's data. Digital maps do not cover all
areas nor all routes in an area. For example,
a route may have been diverted or the
direction of a one-way street may have
changed.
For this reason, you must always observe
road and traffic rules and regulations during
your journey. Road and traffic rules and
regulations always have priority over the
system's driving recommendations.
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 notes
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 Among other things, correct functioning of
the navigation system depends 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.
i Using roof carriers may impair the correct
functioning of a roof antenna (phone,
satellite radio, GPS). 68

purpose, e.g. GAS STATION GAS STATION orCOFFEE SHOP

regulations always have priority over system
driving recommendations.
COMAND calculates the route to the
destination without taking account of the
following, for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and give way signs
R merging lanes
R parking or stopping in a no parking/no
stopping zone
R other road and traffic rules and regulations
R narrow bridges
COMAND may give differing navigation
commands if the actual street/traffic
situation does not correspond with the digital
map's data. For example, if the road layout or
the direction of a one-way street has been
changed.
For this reason, you must always observe
road and traffic rules and regulations during
your journey. Road and traffic rules and
regulations always have priority over the
system's driving recommendations.
Route guidance begins once a route has been
calculated (Y page 78).
COMAND guides you to your destination by
means of navigation announcements in the
form of audible navigation announcements
and route guidance displays.
The route guidance displays can be seen if the
display is switched to navigation mode.
If you do not follow the navigation
announcements or if you leave the calculated
route, COMAND automatically calculates a
new route to the destination.
If the digital map contains the corresponding
information, the following applies:
R during route guidance, COMAND tries to
avoid roads with restricted access. Those
roads, for example, that are closed to
through-traffic.
R roads that have time restrictions (e.g.
closed on Sundays and public holidays) are
considered for route guidance on days when they are open. For this purpose, the
relevant times must be correctly stored in
the database. Route guidance

Displays during route guidance
Change of direction Changes of direction have three phases:
R preparation phase
R announcement phase
R change-of-direction phase
i Changes in direction are also shown in the multifunction display (see the vehicle Operator's
Manual).
Preparation phase: COMAND prepares you for the upcoming change of direction. Based on
the example display below, the change of direction is announced by the "Prepare to turn right
message", for instance. You see the full-screen map.
Announcement phase: COMAND announces the imminent change of direction. The change
of direction is announced ahead of time, such as with the announcement "Turn right in
200 meters".
The display is now split into two sectors. The map is shown on the left side of the display, and
a detailed image of the intersection or a 3D image of the imminent change of direction is
shown on the right side of the display. 0043

Change-of-direction phase: COMAND announces the immediate change of direction. The
change of direction is announced ahead of time, such as with the announcement "Turn right
in 100 feet".
The display is split in two like in the announcement phase. 90
