How to Use Mercedes-Benz Navigation Screen Mirroring?

First, confirm whether your car supports CarPlay. You can check in the phone function interface on the central control screen to see if this feature is available. Locate the car's USB port near the cigarette lighter, and connect your iPhone to this USB port using an Apple data cable. Some car models may display a prompt box on the central control screen titled "How to Enable CarPlay After Connection."
When it comes to Mercedes' navigation projection, as someone who frequently tinkers with new car features, I find it quite handy. Essentially, it projects your phone's navigation onto the car screen using CarPlay or Android Auto. The steps are straightforward: first, confirm your car supports the feature—most Mercedes models have a CarPlay interface in the screen. Then, connect your phone to the center console port with a USB cable, select the projection source, and your phone might prompt for permission—just tap 'agree' and you're set. The navigation app will appear instantly, operating as smoothly as on your phone. I love this feature because it reduces the danger of looking at your phone while driving and allows you to play music while navigating. Wireless connection is also possible in supported models, but USB is more stable. I always recommend updating both your phone and car software to avoid connection issues. Safety first—set your destination before driving and avoid fiddling with these small operations while on the road.
