Your COMAND equipment
These operating instructions describe all
standard and optional equipment available
for your COMAND system at the time of pur-
chase. Country-specific differences are pos-
sible. 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 equip-
ment 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 com-
munication equipment integrated in the vehi- cle 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 equip-
ment 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 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 can give incorrect navigation com-
mands 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 reg-
ulations always have priority over the sys-
tem'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 con-sulting the map display for directions. Look-
ing 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 recep-
tion. In certain situations, GPS reception may
be impaired, there may be interference or
there may be no reception at all, e.g. in tun-
nels or parking garages.
i Using roof carriers may impair the correct
functioning of a roof antenna (phone, sat-
ellite radio, GPS). 76

Further information about
ATTENTION ASSIST can be
found in the vehicle Opera-
tor's Manual. Using car pool lanes
You can include carpool lanes (HOV or car
sharing lanes) in the route calculation.
If you use HOV or carpool lanes, please
observe the applicable laws as well as the
local and time limitation conditions.
Carpool lanes may only be used under certain
conditions. They can normally be used when there are two people in the vehicle. However,
there are also carpool lanes which can only be
used when there are three or more people in
the vehicle. In California, lone drivers can use
a carpool lane if their vehicle's emission level or fuel consumption is below a fixed thresh-
old.
Carpool lanes may be reserved for specific
times (e.g. during the peak period).
Carpool lanes are indicated by a diamond
symbol on specific road signs and on the road surface. The road signs may also include the
designation CARPOOL. The lanes are
arranged as a separate lane next to the others
or are built as a physically separate lane.
Depending on the setting under Use Car‐ Use Car‐
pool Lanes
pool Lanes, COMAND uses carpool lanes
when calculating the route. COMAND then
guides you in and out of carpool lanes using
visual and acoustic driving directions.

Displays during route guidance
Change of direction Changes of direction have three phases:
R preparation phase
R announcement phase
R change-of-direction phase
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
