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

Introduction
Always pay attention to traffic conditions.
Familiarize yourself with the address book func-
tions before beginning your journey.

The address book displays all the contacts from
the various sources (mobile phone, memory
card, USB device, the phone book of the multi-
media system, navigation).
You can use the contacts to make telephone
calls, navigate and to write messages.
If a mobile phone is connected to the multimedia system and automatic calling up is activated
(Y page 108), the mobile phone's contacts are
displayed in the address book. If you disconnect the mobile phone from the multimedia system,
these contacts are no longer displayed in the
address book.
When you import, save, edit or add contacts,
they will be saved in the multimedia system.
These contacts will remain available even when you connect the multimedia system to a differ-
ent mobile phone. You can view these contacts
even without a mobile phone.
i The address book can store a total of 5,000
contacts:
R 2000 entries are reserved for permanently
saved contacts.
R 3000 entries are reserved for contacts that
you can load from the mobile phone.

Your multimedia system equipment
These operating instructions describe all the
standard and optional equipment of your multi-
media system, as available at the time of going
to press. Country-specific differences are pos-
sible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may not
feature all functions described here. This also
applies to safety-relevant systems and func-
tions.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops in the vehicle Operator's Manual. Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the vehi- cle while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traffic conditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for the country in which you are driving when operating
the system. General notes
Connection difficulties while the vehi-
cle is in motion
The connection may be lost if: R the mobile phone network coverage is insuf-
ficient
R the vehicle has moved into a mobile phone
cell with no free channels
R the SIM card used is not compatible with the
network available Function restrictions (Canada)
You will not be able to use the Mercedes-Benz
Apps and Internet connection, or will no longer
be able to use them, or may have to wait before
using them, in the following situations:
R if your mobile phone is switched off
R if your mobile phone has not been enabled for
Internet access
R if the Bluetooth ®
function is switched off on
the multimedia system and the desired phone
is to be connected via Bluetooth ®
R if the Bluetooth ®
function is switched off on
the mobile phone and the phone is to be con-
nected via Bluetooth ®
R if the mobile phone is not connected via USB
and the phone is to be connected via USB
R if neither the mobile phone network nor the
mobile phone allow simultaneous use of a
phone and an Internet connection
R if the mobile phone has not been enabled for
Internet access via Bluetooth ®
and/or USB
The driver is not permitted to call up websites
while driving and use of the Mercedes-Benz
Apps is restricted.
i It is possible that you may not be able to
receive calls when an Internet connection is
active. This depends on the mobile phone and
the mobile phone network used. Conditions for access
USA: to use Mercedes-Benz Apps and Internet
access, mbrace must be activated and opera-
tional. Furthermore, mbrace must be activated
for Mercedes-Benz Apps and Internet access.
Take note of the connection priorities. An emer- gency call has the highest priority. When a ser-
vice call, e.g. a breakdown service call or the MB
Info Call, is active, an emergency call can still be initiated. A service call, on the other hand, has
priority over a current Internet connection.
Therefore, you cannot establish an Internet con-nection during a service call.
Canada: a mobile phone must be connected via
Bluetooth ®
(Y page 92) or USB (Y page 157)
with the multimedia system. Furthermore, you
need a valid mobile service contract with a data option, which is used to calculate the associated
connection costs. 120
