Important notes
COMAND calculates the route with the
help of data that is stored on the naviga-
tion DVD.
Only use Mercedes-Benz navigation DVDs
designed for the E-Class (211) COMAND
system. No other CDs or DVDs will work.
Using other navigation CDs or DVDs might
lead to malfunctions.
Because of changes in local traffic patterns
(e.g. road works) and/or incomplete data,
errors in calculation may occur.
As a result, the recommended route may
deviate from the ideal route. The data
stored on the DVD only reflects local con-
ditions at the time of DVD production. DVD
maps do not cover all areas nor all routes
within an area.The DVD is loaded into (and ejected from)
the navigation module.
The navigation module is mounted on the
left-hand side of the trunk.

Your Navigation DVD drive has been
designed to play DVDs which corre-
spond to the IEC 60908 standard.
If you insert thicker data carriers, e.g.
ones that have data on both sides (one
side with DVD data, the other side with
audio data), they cannot be ejected
and will damage the drive.

Important notes
T
If your vehicle has been transported by a
car, train or ferry, COMAND may require
some time to find its exact position.COMAND may issue navigation announce-
ments not suited to your actual position.
Moving the vehicle a few yards is typically
enough to remedy the situation.
While determining the exact position ,
route guidance is subject to the following
restrictions:
COMAND does not output navigation
announcements.
The display OFF ROAD and an arrow indi-
cating the direction of the destination
appear instead of the detailed naviga-
tion displays.
Once the system is correctly repositioned,
route guidance continues with navigation
announcements and detailed navigation
displays. The following instructions have to be fol-
lowed when interrupting a trip during route
guidance, and later continuation:
Continuation of the trip within 2 hours
after interruption:
The system automatically resumes
route guidance.
Continuation of the trip between
2 and 12 hours after interruption:
Continue route guidance manually
in the Navigation main menu
(
page 108).
Route guidance with GPS
i
GPS (Global Positioning System) sig-
nals received make it possible to deter-
mine the current vehicle position.
i
Deviations from the actual position
may occur
if the reception of GPS signals is
disturbed e. g. in parking garages
and tunnels
if road conditions are bad
depending on the vehicle’s condi-
tion
Route guidance after vehicle trans-
port
i
The navigation DVD must be loaded in
the navigation computer (
page 105).
Trip interruption during route guid-
ance
i
Trip interruption means parking the ve-
hicle and switching COMAND OFF.
Trip continuation means trip continua-
tion with COMAND switched ON.
