Updating the digital map
Introduction
The digital maps generated by the map soft-
ware become outdated in the same way as
conventional road maps. Optimal route guid-
ance 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 dig-
ital map updated there using a data medium,
or you can update it yourself.
For North American countries, it is possible to
update the map data for COMAND free of
charge for a period of three years. Information
on the availability of this service for your vehi-
cle can be obtained from your authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Entitlement to the free update
For the first three years after your vehicle is
registered, you are entitled to all available
updates to the map software for COMAND.
They are usually installed during a regular
vehicle service. After this period, you can pur-
chase further updates from your authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
The free updates relate to the vehicle and not
to an individual. If there is a change of own-
ership within the three years after first regis-
tration, the new owner is entitled to the map
software updates.
Updating at an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center
If an update for your map software is availa-
ble, you will receive it free of charge at your
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center during
your vehicle's annual service. You can
arrange a separate appointment for this at
your authorized Mercedes-Benz Center on
request.
102Map functions
Navigation

The update can only be performed:
Rat an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
Rfor map data for North America
The map software is not provided on DVD.
Carrying out a manual update
After the free update of the map data has
expired or when buying map data, you can
update the data yourself.
The update process may take some time (up
to 45 minutes), depending on the size of the
digital map. 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. In order to prevent this,
a suitable power supply to the vehicle must be
maintained.

Address book
Introduction
Always pay attention to traffic conditions.
Familiarize yourself with the address book
functions before beginning your journey.
You can use COMAND when the road and
traffic conditions permit. You could otherwise
become involved in an accident in which you
or others could be injured.
The address book displays all the contacts
from the various sources (mobile phone,
memory card, USB device, COMAND phone
book, navigation).
You can use the contacts to make telephone
calls, navigate and to write messages.
If a mobile phone is connected to COMAND
and automatic calling up is activated
(
Ypage 130), the mobile phone's contacts
are displayed in the address book. If you dis- connect the mobile phone from COMAND,
these contacts are no longer displayed in the
address book.
When you import, save, edit or add contacts,
they will be saved in COMAND. These con-
tacts will remain there even when you con-
nect COMAND to a different mobile phone.
You can view these contacts even without a
mobile phone.
iThe address book can store a total of
5000 contacts.
R2000 entries are reserved for perma-
nently saved contacts.
R3000 entries are reserved for contacts
that you can load from the mobile phone.
iBefore selling your vehicle, delete the
contacts saved in COMAND using the reset function (
Ypage 48).
