location based services

Mercedes-Benz Search & Send¹ is a new and convenient way to plan your trip destinations ahead of time. Using familiar Yahoo!^® Local Maps and Google^™ Maps web sites from the comfort of your home or office computer, you can search for a destination online, then send it right to your Mercedes-Benz.

Once you're in your vehicle, simply push the i-button and your destination will be downloaded directly to the vehicle's navigation system via your Mercedes-Benz Tele Aid System². You'll be prompted to either start route guidance immediately or save the information for later use in your navigation memory. Instead of spending time inputting data into your navigation system, your destinations will be available whenever you need them.

Where Internet convenience meets engineering excellence
Your time is valuable and having options is important. Mercedes-Benz Search & Send gives you the flexibility to plan trips when you want — whether you're on a lunch break or surfing the Web while you relax at home — along with the freedom to access your destinations at any point along your route. Best of all, you can share this feature with colleagues, friends, or family, so they can send destinations to you while you're on the road.

And, like so many other ground-breaking automotive innovations, Mercedes-Benz is first to offer this functionality in the United States on select vehicles.
