2. Installation
Switch off ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery! If according to factory rules
disconnecting the battery has to be avoided, it is usually sufficient to put the vehicle is
sleep-mode. In case the sleep-mode does not show success, disconnect the battery with a
resistor lead.
Place of installation is at the backside of the navigation unit:
A-class: On the A-pillar on the driver's side
GLE, GLS: Below passenger seat
Sprinter: Behind the factory monitor
The vehicle is very responsive to disconnected vehicle parts while battery is connected.
Therefore the error memory of the vehicle must be deleted after installation.
