yourself.
Updating process

G

WARNING

Never leave the engine running in enclosed

spaces. The exhaust gases contain toxic

carbon monoxide. Breathing in exhaust fumes

is a health hazard and can lead to

unconsciousness or death.

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 the starter battery is not sufficiently

charged, COMAND may end the process

automatically. This protects the battery. If

this occurs, restart the update with the

engine running.

Map software copy protection
Map software for COMAND is subject to a

charge. The map software has just one

activation code which is usable in one vehicle

only, and is not transferable. You can obtain

the six-digit activation code from an

authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. If you

have lost the activation code, contact an

authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. If

COMAND does not accept the activation

code that you have received, also contact an

authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Your vehicle is supplied with map software at

the factory. Depending on the country, map

software for your region is either pre-installed

or the map software is supplied as a DVD. You

do not require an activation code for the map

software that is provided with your vehicle.
If the map software on your vehicle has been

installed at the factory and you wish to

reinstall it, this also does not necessitate

entry of the activation code.
