own symbol and are filed in the Mercedes-
Mercedes-
Benz Apps Benz Apps category.
You can save the imported destinations and
routes as personal POIs and routes
(Y page 98).
When importing routes, please note:
R The Mercedes-Benz Apps may generate a
route based on a different map from the
one used by COMAND. Points on the route
may therefore be situated off the digital
roads. For this reason an imported route
commenced in COMAND may deviate from the original route from the Mercedes-Benz
Apps.
R The Mercedes-Benz Apps minimize the
number of route points offered. For this
reason an imported route commenced in COMAND may deviate from the original
route from the Mercedes-Benz Apps. Selecting and editing personal POIs

Recording the route
General notes When recording the route, bear in mind the
following:
R if the SD memory card is inserted, it must
not removed during recording.
R if route recording is started manually, it
must be finished manually before COMAND is switched off (e .g. when the engine is
switched off).
R COMAND minimizes the number of route
points recorded. Therefore when the
recorded route is subsequently com-
menced, it may differ from the route that
was originally recorded.

General notes
For this reason, you must always observe
road and traffic rules and regulations during
your journey. Road and traffic rules and reg-
ulations always have priority over system
driving recommendations.
COMAND calculates the route to the destina- tion without taking account of the following,
for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and yield 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 com-
mands 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 Route guidance

General notes
If a route to a destination has been calculated,
COMAND saves the destination to the last
destinations memory. If the memory is full,
COMAND overwrites the oldest destination.
When you save the current vehicle position or a crosshair position, this position is stored in
the "Last destinations" memory.
You can save destinations permanently in the
address book and on an SD memory card. For instance, this is possible immediately after
entering an address. Storing destinations
