COMAND calculates a new route. Only
those options which can be implemented
are considered.
Installing the map software
The digital maps generated by the map soft-
ware become outdated in the same way as
conventional road maps. Optimum route
guidance can only be provided by the naviga-
tion system in conjunction with the most up-
to-date map software. Information about new
map software versions can be obtained from
a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
You can install new map software, which may
consist of one of more DVDs (depending on
the scope), yourself.
The installation process can take between
10 and 120 minutes, depending on the scope
of the map software. If the radio is switched
on before you start the installation process,
you can still adjust the volume. You can also
use COMAND to operate the automatic air-
conditioning system and to cancel the proc-
ess. Other functions are not operational. If
possible, carry out the installation process
when the vehicle is stationary. The DVD read
speed is higher when the vehicle is stationary
than when it is in motion, so less time is
required. If the starter battery is not suffi-
ciently charged, COMAND may end the proc-
ess automatically, in order to protect the bat-
tery. Therefore, let the engine idle during the
installation process.
G
Risk of poisoning
Never leave the engine running in enclosed
spaces. The exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide. Inhaling exhaust fumes consti-
tutes a health hazard and could lead to loss
of consciousness or even death.

R
cloth to clean discs. Do not wipe them with
a circular motion, but only in straight lines
from the centre outwards.
Place DVDs back in their cases after use.

Protect DVDs from heat and direct sunlight.

Map software copy protection
Map software for COMAND is subject to a
charge. The map software has just one acti-
vation code which is usable in one vehicle
only, and is not transferable. You can obtain
the six digit activation code from your
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. If you have
lost the activation code, or if COMAND does
not accept the activation code that you have
received, ask at your Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
Your vehicle is supplied with map software at
the factory. Depending on the country, the
map software for your region is either pre-
installed (Europe/USA), or the map software
is provided on a DVD (all other countries). You
do not require an activation code for the map
software that is provided with your vehicle.
If the map software on your vehicle has been
installed at the factory and you wish to rein-
stall it, this also does not necessitate entry of
the activation code.
