Navigation

Introduction
Safety notes

WARNING
For safety reasons, onlyenter a destination when the vehicle is stationary. When the vehicle is in motion, passenger should enter the destination.Study manual and select route before driving.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph (approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is covering a distance of 44 feet(approximately 14 m) every second.
COMAND calculates the routeto the destination without taking account of the following:

• Traffic lights
• Stop and right-of-way-signs
• Lane merging
• Parking or stopping prohibited areas
• Other road and traffic rules and regulations
• Narrow bridges

COMAND may give incorrect navigation commands if the data in the digital map does not correspond with the actual road/traffic situation. Digital maps do not cover all areas nor all routes within an area. For example, if the traffic routing has been changed or the direction of a one-way road has been reversed.
For this reason, you must always observe applicable road and traffic rules and regulations during your journey. Road and traffic rules and regulations always have priority over the navigation commands generated by the system.
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 information

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
Correct functioning of the navigation system depends, amongst other things, on GPS reception.Incertain 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.

Entry restriction
On vehicles for certain countries, there is a restriction on entering data.
The restriction is active from a vehicle speed of over approximately 3 mph (5 km/h). As soon as speed falls below approximately
2 mph (3 km/h), the restriction becomes inactive.
When the restriction is active, certain entries cannot be made. This will be indicated by the fact that certain menu items are grayed out and cannot be selected.
The following functions, for example, may therefore not be available while the vehicle is in motion:

• entering the destination city and street
• entering a destination via the map
• entering points of interest in the vicinity of a city or via a name search
• editing entries
• using the number keypad for direct entry

Basic settings
Route mode

Setting route type and route options
You can select the following route types:

• Fast Route: COMAND calculates the route with the shortest (minimized) journey time.
• Dynamic Route:same route type as Fast Route. In addition, COMAND takes traffic reports into account during route guidance5.Thus, the navigation system is able to guide you around blocked section, for example. If a faster route is determined due to a received RDS-TMC traffic announcement, the navigation system changes the route. If possible, it will bypass blocked roads.
• Eco Route:the ECO route is an economical route that takes traffic announcements into account (see dynamic route).
• Short Route: COMAND calculates the route with the shortest possible (minimized) route distance.
  In addition to route types, route options can also be set.

You can selectthe following route options:

• Use Carpool Lanes
• Minimize highways
• Minimize Toll Roads
• Minimize Tunnels
• Minimize Ferries
• Minimize Motorail Trains
  If you select route options with a tick, the corresponding types of roads will be avoided in the route guidance where possible.

Useful information
This Operator’s Manual describes all models and all standard and optional equipment of your vehicle available at the time of publication of the Operator’s Manual. Country-specific differences are possible. Please note that your vehicle may not be equipped with all features described. This also applies to safety-related systems and functions.
Please read the information on qualified specialist workshops (Y page 29).

Important safety notes 

WARNING
Severe conditions (e.g. strong air pollution) may require replacement of the filter before its scheduled replacement interval. A clogged filter will reduce the air volume to the interior and the windows could fog up, impairing visibility and endangering you and others. Have a blocked filter replaced at a Mercedes-Benz Center as soon as possible.
Follow the recommended settings for heating and cooling given on the following pages. Otherwise, the windows could fog up, impairing visibility and endangering you and others.

Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period during warm weather, e.g. using the convenience opening feature (Y page 89). This will speed up the cooling process and the desired vehicle interior temperature will be reached more quickly.
The integrated filter can filter out most particles of dust, and completely filters out pollen. Aclogged filter reduces the amount of air supplied to the vehicle interior.For this reason, you should always observe the interval for replacing the filter, which is specified in the Maintenance Booklet.As it depends on environmental conditions, e.g. heavy air pollution, the interval may be shorter than stated in the Maintenance Booklet.
It is possible that the blower may be activated automatically 40 minutes after the SmartKey is removed. The vehicle is then ventilated for 30 minutes to dry the air-conditioning system.
