routes via Mercedes-Benz Apps
You can import destinations and routes into the navigation via the Mercedes-Benz apps. These
have their own symbol and are filed in the
Mercedes-Benz Apps
Mercedes-Benz Apps category.
Mercedes-Benz apps are, for example:
R Download POI
R Local Search
You can save the imported destinations and
routes as personal POIs and routes (Y page 68).
When importing routes, please note:
R The Mercedes-Benz Apps may generate a
route based on a different map from the one
used by the multimedia system. Points on the
route may therefore be situated off the digital roads.
R The Mercedes-Benz Apps minimize the num-
ber of route points offered.
For this reason an imported route com-
menced in the multimedia system may devi-
ate from the original route from the
Mercedes-Benz Apps. Selecting and editing personal POIs

General notes Routes are recorded using the SD card.
Requirements: the SD card has the FAT data
system format (e.g. FAT32). When recording the route, bear in mind the fol-
lowing:
R If the SD card is inserted, it must not be
removed during recording.
R If route recording is started manually, it must
be finished manually before the multimedia
system is switched off (e .g. when the engine
is switched off).
R The multimedia system minimizes the num-
ber of route points recorded. Therefore when
the recorded route is subsequently com-
menced, it may differ from the route that was originally recorded.

General notes
The multimedia system calculates the route to
the destination without taking the following into
account, for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and yield signs
R parking or stopping restrictions
R road narrowing
R temporary traffic rules and regulations
The navigation system can give differing driving
recommendations if the actual street/traffic sit- uation does not correspond with the digital
map's data. For example, if the road layout or
the direction of a one-way street has been
changed.
For this reason, you must always observe road
and traffic rules and regulations during your
journey. Road and traffic rules and regulations
always have priority over system driving recom- mendations.
Route guidance begins once a route has been
calculated (Y page 59).
The multimedia system guides you to your des-
tination by means of navigation announcements in the form of audible navigation announce-
ments and route guidance displays.
The route guidance displays can be seen if nav-
igation mode is switched on.
If you do not follow the navigation announce-
ments or if you leave the calculated route, the
multimedia system automatically calculates a
new route to the destination.
If the digital map contains the corresponding
information, the following applies:
R During route guidance, the multimedia sys-
tem tries to avoid roads with restricted
access. These include, for example, roads
which are closed to through-traffic.
R Roads that have time restrictions (e.g. closed
on Sundays and public holidays) are consid-
ered for route guidance on days when they are open. For this purpose, the relevant times
must be correctly stored in the database. Change of direction
Overview Changes of direction have three phases:
R Preparation phase
R Announcement phase
R Change-of-direction phase
Changes in direction are also shown in the mul-
tifunction display of the instrument cluster (see the vehicle Operator's Manual).
Preparation phase The multimedia system prepares you for the
upcoming driving maneuver, e.g. with the
announcement "Prepare to turn right". You see
the full-screen map.
Announcement phase 0043
Next road or direction
0044 Point at which the change of direction takes
place (white dot)
0087 Change of direction (turn right here)
0085 Distance to the next change of direction
The multimedia system announces the immi-
nent change of direction.
The display is now split into two sectors. The
map is shown on the left side of the display, and a detailed image of the intersection or a 3D
image of the imminent change of direction is
shown on the right side of the display. Route guidance
71Navigation Z

Change-of-direction phase
The multimedia system announces the immedi-
ate change of direction. The change of direction is announced ahead of time, e.g. with the
announcement "Now turn right".
The display is split in two like in the announce-
ment phase.
The change of direction is performed when the
light-color bar on the right drops down to 0 ft and
the current vehicle position symbol has reached
the white change-of-direction point.
When the change of direction is completed, the map will appear in full screen mode again.
Display on highways The image shows an example of route guidance
at a highway intersection when driving on a
highway. Lane recommendations
Display on multi-lane roads 0043
Lanes not recommended (dark gray)
0044 Possible lane (light gray)
0087 Recommended lanes (white)
If the digital map contains the relevant data, the
multimedia system can display lane recommen-
dations on multi-lane roads for the next change
of direction.
Lane not recommended 0043: you will not be able
to complete the next change of direction if you
stay in this lane.
Possible lane 0044: you will only be able to com-
plete the next change of direction in this lane.
Recommended lane 0087: in this lane you will be
able to complete the next change of direction
and the one after that.
The multimedia system shows the lane recom-
mendations for the next two changes of direc-
tion. Lane recommendations are also shown in
the multifunction display of the instrument clus- ter (see the vehicle Operator's Manual).
Approaching new lanes 0043
Approaching new lane
During the change of direction, new lanes may
