Update Sequence
The sequence includes the following stages:
R Loading DVD into the DVD changer
R Update process
i The update process may take between 60
and 150 minutes, depending on the size of
the map software.
If possible, perform the update when the
vehicle is stationary. The DVD read speed
is faster when the vehicle is stationary than
when the vehicle is moving and the update
therefore takes less time. If you perform
the update with the engine off and the
vehicle battery is no longer powerful
enough, COMAND may shut off
automatically during the process to protect
the battery. In this case, restart the update
with the engine running.
You can interrupt the update process and
continue it at later time. If you cancel the
update process, the navigation system is
not ready for operation.
GWarning
Never leave the engine running in an enclosed
space. The exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide. Inhaling exhaust gases constitutes
a health hazard and could lead to loss of
consciousness or even death.
