Map software
The digital maps generated by the map
software become outdated in the same
way as conventional road maps. Optimum
route guidance can only be provided by the
navigation system in conjunction with the
most up-to-date map software. Informati-
on about new map software versions can
be obtained from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Center.
Information via satellite signals
The navigation system must receive satel-
lite signals for route guidance. The system
may not be able to acquire satellite signals
inside multi-level parking garages or in the
vicinity of tall buildings or trees.

Risk of accident
For safety reasons, only enter a destination
when the vehicle is stationary. Study manual
and select route before driving.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is co-
vering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.
The Universal Media Interface calculates the
route to the destination without taking ac-
count of the following, for example:
• Traffic lights
• Stop and right-of-way signs
• Parking or stopping prohibited areas
• Lane merging
• Other road and traffic rules and regulations
• Narrow bridges
The Universal Media Interface may give incor-
rect navigation commands if the data in the
digital map does not correspond with the ac-
tual road/traffic situation. Maps do not cover
all areas nor all routes within an area. For ex-
ample, if the traffic routing has been changed
or the direction of a one-way road has been
reversed.
For this reason, you must always observe ap-
plicable road and traffic rules and regulations
during your journey. Road and traffic rules
and regulations always have priority over the
navigation commands generated by the sy-
stem.
G
Risk of accident
Navigation announcements are intended to
direct you while driving without diverting your
attention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of con-
sulting the map display for directions. Con-
sulting the symbols or map display for
directions may cause you to divert your atten-
tion from driving and increase your risk of an
accident.
