Emergency call
Important!
If you enter “1” and press the right-hand rotary/
pushbutton
, the number stored in memory
location 1 (default is 9-1-1) will be dialed.
Pressing or holding “1” longer than 2 seconds will also
initiate the call.
The 9-1-1 emergency call system is a public service.
Using it without due cause is a criminal offense.You can make an emergency call to an emergency
rescue station with a mobile communications network.
The emergency call will be placed as long as the
corresponding mobile communications network is
available. To do this, switch the telephone on, if you
have not already done so.
It will also be placed, if the unlock code is not entered.
Emergency calls may not be possible with all mobile
phone networks or if certain network services and/or
telephone functions are active. Check with your local
network operating company.
Note:
This function places a call to the local 9-1-1 provider. It
does not initiate a Tele Aid call.

Destination input
The current vehicle position cannot be displayed
exactly in every case. Satellite reception conditions,
road conditions, the condition of the vehicle, etc. could
cause deviations from the actual situation. In this case
enter the current vehicle position manually, page 213.
When the vehicle has been transported by a car train or
a ferry, COMAND will require some time to find its
exact position. In these cases it is often sufficient to
move the vehicle a few yards to receive a complete
route recommendation.
The reception of GPS signals can be unreliable or at
times even impossible:
• When driving between tall buildings, in parking
garages or tunnels, when obstructed by large
vehicles and similar structures
• During electrical storms or very heavy rains
• Satellites may be switched off for checking or repair
Changing tires:
We recommend that you have any tire changes done by
a Mercedes-Benz Center. Because COMAND operates
using measurements taken by wheel revolutions, the
tire new size must be entered when the tires are
changed, see calibration on page 201.Travelling abroad:
If you intend to travel through different regions or
abroad you will need the respective CD. Contact your
Mercedes-Benz Center or the Client Assistance Center
at 1-800-FOR-MERCedes (1-800-367-6372) for the
available CDs.
Remove the actual Navigation CD when you leave a
region or cross the border and insert the Navigation CD
for the region or country you are now in.
CD drive:
The CD drive is able to read navigation CDs as well as
audio CDs. If there is an audio CD in the CD drive, the
following message will appear when you press
:
“No CD, please insert NAVI CD”.
Remove the audio CD and insert a navigation CD,
page 44. Notes
