Navgaton Important notes Important notes Warnng G For safety reasons, you should only enter a destnaton when the vehcle s statonary. When the vehcle s n moton, a passenger should enter the destnaton. Study manual and select route before drvng. Do not watch dsplay screen or operate buttons whle the vehcle s n moton - let voce nstructons gude you. Stop at a safe locaton before usng buttons or makng correctons. Traffc regulatons always have prorty over any route recommendatons gven. Bear n mnd that at a speed of just 30 mph (approxmately 50 km/h), your car s coverng a dstance of 50 feet (approxmately 14 m) every second. The route calculated by COMAND s a recommendaton on how to best reach your selected destnaton. Durng route gudance, you wll not receve any nformaton on Traffc lghts Stop and yeld sgns Parkng or stoppng zones One-way streets Narrow brdges Smlar traffc regulaton data You should therefore always strctly observe traffc regulatons whle drvng.

Navgaton Important notes Warnng G The CD reader contans a Class 1 laser product. There s a danger of nvsble laser radaton f the cover s opened or damaged. Do not remove the cover. The CD reader does not contan any parts whch can be servced by the user. For safety reasons, have any servce work whch may be necessary performed only by qualfed personnel.! COMAND calculates the route wth the help of data that s stored on the navgaton CD. Only use Mercedes-Benz navgaton CDs. Usng other navgaton CDs mght lead to malfunctons. Because of changes n local traffc patterns (e.g. road works) and/or ncomplete data, errors n calculaton may occur. As a result, the recommended route may devate from the deal route. The data stored on the CD only reflects local condtons at the tme of CD producton. The CD drve can read navgaton CDs and playback audo CDs. If an audo CD s n the CD drve and b s pressed, the message No CD avalable. Insert NAVI-CD type DX only wll be dsplayed. Remove the audo CD and nsert a navgaton CD ( page 137). 131
Navgaton Important notes! GPS (Global Postonng System) sgnals receved make t possble to determne the current vehcle poston. Devatons from the actual poston may occur f the recepton of GPS sgnals s dsturbed e.g. n parkng garages and tunnels f road condtons are bad dependng on the vehcle s condton If the recepton of the GPS sgnal s unavalable, you wll have to manually enter the current vehcle poston ( page 198). If your vehcle has been transported by a car, tran or ferry, COMAND needs some tme to fnd ts exact poston. Movng the vehcle a few yards s typcally enough to remedy ths stuaton. Travellng abroad If you ntend to travel through dfferent regons or abroad, you wll need the respectve navgaton CD.
