Why Update Mercedes Navigation Maps?
Mercedes-Benz navigation relies on up-to-date map data for accurate routing, POIs, charging stations, and traffic updates. Regular updates ensure your car always finds the most efficient routes.
How Mercedes Map Updates Work
Mercedes vehicles download map and navigation updates via USB or over-the-air (OTA) if supported. Updates install when the system is idle to ensure smooth operation.
Check for Navigation Updates
1. Go to Settings → Navigation → Map Update on your vehicle's infotainment system.
2. Connect to Wi-Fi (if OTA) or prepare a USB stick for the update.
3. Follow on-screen instructions to install the latest maps.

Troubleshooting Map Update Issues
