Updating the digital map
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become outdated in the same way as conven-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.
86Map functions
Navigation

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, the
new 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:
Rat an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
Rfor 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.

Procedure and general information
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 (
Ypage 93) and then
authorize it (Ypage 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 (
Ypage 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)
(
Ypage 96).

To ensure an optimum language quality, you can
set the mobile phone's transmission and recep-
tion volume (
Ypage 96).
If the Authorization Failed
message
appears, you may have entered a different pass-
key or exceeded the prescribed time limit.
Repeat the procedure.
iSome mobile phones require a passkey with
four or more digits.
iIf you wish to re-authorize the mobile phone
after de-authorizing it, you can choose
another passkey for it.
Establishing the connection from the
mobile phone
The Bluetooth®device name of the multimedia
system is MB Bluetooth.

XMultimedia system: selectYes.
XMobile phone: confirm the code. Depending
on the mobile phone used, you may have to
confirm the connection to the multimedia sys- tem and for the PBAP and MAP Bluetooth
®
profiles. The prompt to confirm may take up
to two minutes to be displayed. You may also
save the confirmation on the mobile phone
(see the manufacturer's operating instruc-
tions).
The mobile phone is now authorized and con-
nected to the multimedia system. You can
now speak using the hands-free system.
To ensure an optimum language quality, you can
set the mobile phone's transmission and recep-
tion volume (
Ypage 96).
The code is different
XMultimedia system: selectNo.
The process is canceled. Repeat the proce-
dure.
If your mobile phone does not support Secure
Simple Pairing, an input menu is displayed for
the passkey. The passkey is a one- to sixteen-
digit number combination which you can choose
yourself. Enter the same passkey in both the
multimedia system and on the mobile phone and
confirm. Depending on the mobile phone used,
you may have to confirm the connection to the
multimedia system and for the PBAP and MAP
Bluetooth
®profiles.
Reconnecting automatically
The multimedia system always searches for the
last connected mobile phone.
If no connection can be made to the most
recently connected mobile phone, the system
searches for the mobile phone that was con-
nected before that one.
Switching between mobile phones
If you have authorized more than one mobile
phone, you can switch between the individual
phones.
