Mercedes-Benz vehicles are equipped with a navigation system that uses an SD card loaded with mapping data to provide turn-by-turn directions and other information to the driver. In order to use the navigation system, the SD card must first be inserted into the slot located on the front of the console. Once the SD card is inserted, the navigation system will boot up and begin loading the map data. The process of loading the map data can take up to several minutes, depending on the size of the SD card and the amount of data that needs to be loaded. Once the map data has been loaded, the navigation system will be ready to use and the driver can input their desired destination.
