Introduction

We hope you enjoy your new Mercedes-Benz Universal Media Interface! Congratulations on your new Universal Media Interface. These Operating Instructions are valid for vehicles of the W/S 204 model series which are equipped with a Universal Media Interface. These instructions will teach you how to use your Universal Media Interface in combination with your AUDIO 20 and provide you with important tips and advice. First of all, familiarise yourself with your Universal Media Interface and read the Operating Instructions before driving off. This will enable you to enjoy your Universal Media Interface to the full and help you to avoid dangers to you and others.

Mercedes-Benz continuously adapts its Universal Media Interface to the state of the art and therefore reserves the right to make changes in design, equipment, and technology. You cannot, therefore, base any claims on the data, illustrations, or descriptions contained in these Operating Instructions. Any authorized Mercedes-Benz Service Centre will be happy to assist you at any time.
These Operating Instructions are a part of the vehicle’s equipment. You should therefore always keep them in the vehicle and hand them over to the new owner if you sell the vehicle.

System Overview

Note The AUX input on the audio system must be activated in order to use the voice and audio playback of the Universal Media Interface.

Navigation system

Risk of an accident For safety reasons only enters a destination when the vehicle is stationary. Otherwise, you could be distracted from the road and traffic situation and cause an accident in which you and/or others could be injured.

The Universal Media Interface calculates route guidance to the destination without taking account of e.g.:

  • Traffic lights
  • Stop and give way signs
  • Parking or stopping prohibited signs
  • Lane narrowing
  • Other road and traffic controls and regulations

The Universal Media Interface may give incorrect driving recommendations if the actual road situation differs from the data on the digital map. For example, if the traffic routing has been changed or the direction of a oneway road has been reversed. For this reason, you must always observe applicable road and traffic controls and regulations during your journey. Road and traffic controls and regulations always have priority over the system’s navigation commands.

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The digital maps generated by the map software become outdated in the same way as conventional road maps.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. Information about new map software versions can be obtained from any Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.

Information via satellite signals

The navigation system must receive satellite signals for route guidance. The system may not be able to acquire satellite signals inside multi-story car parks or in the vicinity of tall buildings or trees.

FM traffic radio

Displaying traffic obstructions

Note

A TMC radio station transmits free-of-charge TMC traffic reports in addition to the radio program. The TMC traffic radio receiver can receive current TMC traffic reports and take them into consideration for dynamic route guidance. The navigation system is thus able to reroute around a traffic jam, for example. There may be differences between the reports received and the actual traffic situation.

  2. Select Detour.
  3. Select Less and More to set the length of the block.
  4. Select Start. The Universal Media Interface calculates an alternative route.

You can receive traffic information using the TMC traffic radio receiver.

If there are TMC traffic messages, colored arrows are displayed along the course of the traffic jam:
