Mercedes-Benz GLC : System settings / Information on important system updates

Important system updates may be necessary for the security of your multimedia system's data. Install these updates, or else the security of your multimedia system cannot be ensured.

A system update consists of three steps:

  • Downloading or copying of the data required for installation
  • Installation of the downloaded system update
  • Activation of the downloaded system update by restarting the system

If automatic software updates are activated, the system updates will be downloaded automatically.

The multimedia system provides a message when a system update is available.

You have the following selection options:

  • Accept and Install

    The system update will be downloaded in the background.

  • Information

    Information about the pending system update is displayed.

  • Later

    The system update can be downloaded manually at a later time.

Deep system updates

Deep system updates access vehicle or system settings and can therefore only be carried out when the vehicle is stationary and the ignition is switched off.

If the download of a deep system update is completed and the downloaded system update is ready for installation, you will be informed of this after the next ignition cycle, for example.

Park the vehicle safely in a suitable location before starting the installation.

Requirements for the installation:

  • The ignition is switched off.
  • Notes and warnings have been read and accepted.
  • The electric parking brake is applied.

If all requirements have been fulfilled, the downloaded system update is installed. The multimedia system cannot be operated while the downloaded system update is being installed and vehicle functions are restricted.

If errors should occur during the installation, the multimedia system automatically attempts to restore the previous version. If restoration of the previous version is not possible, a symbol appears on the media display. Consult a qualified specialist workshop to resolve the problem.
