G
For safety reasons, you should only enter a
destination when the vehicle is stationary.
When the vehicle is in motion, a passenger
should enter the destination. Study manual
and select route before driving.
Do not watch display screen or operate but-
tons while the vehicle is in motion- let voice
instructions guide you. Stop at a safe loca-
tion before using buttons or making correc-
tions.
Traffic regulations always have priority over
any route recommendations given.
The route calculated by the MCS is a
recommendation on how to best reach your
selected destination.
During route guidance, you will not receive
any information on
Traffic lights
Stop and yield signs
Parking or stopping zones
One-way streets
Narrow bridges
Similar traffic regulation data
You should therefore always strictly observe
traffic regulations while driving. Drive care-
fully and always obey traffic laws and road
signs even if they contradict the MCS
instructions.

!MCS calculates the route with the help
of data stored on the navigation DVD.
Only use Mercedes-Benz navigation
DVDs. Using other navigation DVDs
might lead to malfunctions.
Because of changes in local traffic pat-
terns (e.g. road work) and/or incom-
plete 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 lo-
cal conditions at the time of produc-
tion. DVD maps do not cover all areas
nor all routes within an area.
