Press the control button for Settings.

To display the map with satellite pictures, turn the rotary pushbutton to Google Earth and press the rotary pushbutton.
For this map display the system uses data packets received online in the form of satellite pictures and combines these pictures with the road network from the standard Link map display. The MMI hard drive has a memory capacity of 2 GB for temporarily storing the map/navigation data received online (corresponds to map/navigation data for about 4000 km of route guidance). You can also use the loaded satellite pictures for route guidance without an active data connection as long as these pictures are stored on the hard drive.
Google Street View
With Google Street View, you can explore many locations all over the world virtually from the perspective of a pedestrian. Google Street View is available as soon as the symbol -1- Fig. 1 is shown in the legend.
To start Google Street View, turn the rotary pushbutton to select a scale below 30 m.
The following functions are available:
- Exploring a destination step-by-step - press the rotary pushbutton when the symbol -2- Fig. 2 is visible
- Zooming in/out of the current display (up to 4x) - turn rotary pushbutton to right/left -3-
- Rotating the view to the left/right or moving it up/down - move the joystick in the direction required
Additional information
In the Map content menu Link, you can activate the function to show additional information on the MMI display such as Panoramio photos of landmarks/special destinations. To show the map content, move the crosshairs onto an item on the map and press the rotary pushbutton. In the Additional information menu, you can now look at pictures of landmarks or special destinations, for example.
