Updating the digital map
Introduction
The digital map becomes outdated in the
same way as conventional road maps.
Optimal route guidance can only be provided
by the navigation system in conjunction with
the most up-to-date map software.
Information about new versions of the digital
map can be obtained from an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. You can have the
digital map updated at the center with a DVD,
or you can update the map yourself.
