Information about new versions of the
digital map can be obtained from an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Updating the digital map
Introduction The digital maps generated by the map
software become outdated in the same way
as conventional road maps. Optimal route
guidance can only be provided by the navigation system in conjunction with the
most up-to-date map software.
Information about new versions of the digital
map can be obtained from an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. You can have the
digital map updated there with a DVD, or you
can update it yourself.
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
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.
Carrying out a manual update i
The update process can take a long time
(over an hour), depending on the size of the
digital map. During this time, you will only
be able to switch on radio mode and to
accept incoming calls. The update will be
completed more quickly if the vehicle is
stationary.
If you start the update with the engine
switched off and the starter battery has
insufficient power, COMAND may
automatically switch off. This protects the
battery. If this occurs, restart the update
with the engine running.

navigation system and system software.
