Introduction The digital maps generated by the map software
become outdated in the same way as conven-
tional road maps. Optimal route guidance can
only be provided by the navigation system in
conjunction with the most up-to-date map soft- ware.
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 using a data medium, or you can update it yourself. 86
Map functionsNavigation

For North American countries, it is possible to
update the map data for the multimedia system free of charge for a period of three years. Infor-
mation on the availability of this service for your
vehicle can be obtained from your Mercedes-
Benz Service Center.
Entitlement to the free update For the first three years after your vehicle is reg-
istered, you are entitled to all available updates to the map software for the multimedia system. They are usually installed during a regular vehi-
cle service. After this period, you can purchase
further updates from your Mercedes-Benz Ser-
vice Center.
The free updates relate to the vehicle and not to an individual. If there is a change of ownership
within the three years after first registration, thenew owner is entitled to the map software
updates.
Updating at an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center If an update for your map software is available,
you will receive it free of charge at your
Mercedes-Benz Service Center during your vehi-
cle's annual service. You can arrange a separate appointment for this at your Mercedes-Benz
Service Center on request.
The update can only be performed:
R at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
R for 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 begin the
update while the vehicle is stationary and the
starter battery has insufficient power, the mul-
timedia system may switch off automatically.
This protects the battery. In order to prevent
this, a suitable power supply to the vehicle must be maintained. Navigation functions

0050Solutions The multimedia system
does not resume route
guidance after the jour-
ney has been interrup-
ted. Route guidance is canceled if you interrupt the journey for more than
two hours.
"Interrupting the journey" refers to stopping the vehicle.
"Continuing route guidance" refers to switching the multimedia sys-
tem back on and driving on.

The multimedia system calculates the vehicle's position. Depending
on the driving situation, this may take some time.

WARNING
If you operate mobile communication equip-
ment while driving, you will be distracted from traffic conditions. You could also lose controlof the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the vehicleis stationary.
If you make a call on your mobile phone while
driving, always use hands-free mode. Only use
the mobile phone when road, weather and traffic conditions permit. Some jurisdictions prohibit

possible health risks posed by electromagnetic
fields. You can reduce this risk by using an exte- rior antenna.
Therefore, connect your mobile communica-
tions equipment to the vehicle's exterior
antenna wherever possible. General notes

Searching for and authorizing (connecting)
a mobile phone
Before using your mobile phone with the multi-
media system for the first time, you will need to search for the phone (Y page 93) and then
authorize it (Y page 94). Depending on the
mobile phone, authorization either takes place
by means of Secure Simple Pairing or by enter-
ing a passkey. The multimedia system automat- ically makes the procedure that is relevant for your mobile phone available. You can recognize
Secure Simple Pairing by the fact that a code is
displayed on the mobile phone and on the mul-
timedia system. You can recognize the passkey
system by the fact that you have to enter a code
on the mobile phone and on the multimedia sys-
tem. The mobile phone is always connected
automatically after authorization.
If the multimedia system does not detect your
mobile phone, this may be due to particular
security settings on your mobile phone. You can
also start the search procedure and authoriza-
tion on the mobile phone (Y page 95).
Device-specific information on authorizing and
connecting Bluetooth ®
-capable mobile phones
can be found on the Internet at http://
www.mercedes-benz.com/connect .
You can authorize up to 15 mobile phones. After
authorization, the connection of the last two tel- ephones used always functions automatically.
Only one mobile phone can be connected to the
multimedia system at any one time.
De-authorizing (disconnecting) a mobile
phone
The connection is terminated automatically if
you leave the receiver range of the multimedia
system or deactivate Bluetooth ®
on your mobile
phone.
If you no longer want the Bluetooth ®
connection
to be established automatically, the mobile
phone must be de-authorized (disconnected)
(Y page 96). Searching for a mobile phone
