Information about new versions of the digital
map can be obtained from an authorized

map updated there using a data medium, or you
can update it yourself.
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.
