Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or requests. We are here to help you make your vehicle perfect.Adding speed camera alerts to your Mercedes A180 – Automatic Sport can enhance your driving experience and help you stay aware of potential traffic violations. Many users have attempted to do this by downloading files from YouTube videos and transferring them to a USB drive for use in their vehicles. However, some encounter issues where the “Personal Points of Interest” section in the navigation settings does not light up, preventing them from accessing the desired functionality. In this article, we will explore steps to troubleshoot and resolve this problem.

  1. Compatibility of USB Drive: First and foremost, ensure that your USB drive is compatible with your Mercedes A180 – Automatic Sport. Not all USB drives work seamlessly with car infotainment systems. It’s advisable to use a reputable brand like SanDisk, but the key factor is the file system format.
  2. File System Format: Mercedes infotainment systems typically support the FAT32 file system. Formatting your USB drive as FAT32 may resolve the issue of it not being recognized. However, some users have reported success with ExFAT as well. It’s worth trying both formats to see which one works for your vehicle.

To format your USB drive as FAT32 or ExFAT, follow these steps:

    • a. Insert the USB drive into your computer.
    • b. Open the “File Explorer” (Windows) or “Finder” (Mac).
    • c. Locate your USB drive in the list of connected devices.
    • d. Right-click on the USB drive and select “Format…”
    • e. Choose either FAT32 or ExFAT as the file system format. f. Click “Start” or “Format” to begin the formatting process.
  1. Correct Folder Structure: Ensure that the files you downloaded from the YouTube link and want to use for the speed camera alerts are placed in the correct folder structure on your USB drive. Most often, these files should be located in a folder named “PersonalPOI.” Make sure you have organized your files accordingly.
  2. Update Your Infotainment System: Outdated software can sometimes cause compatibility issues. Check if there are any available updates for your Mercedes A180’s infotainment system. Manufacturers often release updates to fix bugs and enhance functionality. Consult your vehicle’s manual or the manufacturer’s website for guidance on how to update the software.
  3. Seek Professional Assistance: If you have tried the above steps and are still facing issues, it might be best to consult with a Mercedes dealership or authorized service center. They can diagnose the problem more accurately and provide a solution specific to your vehicle.

Conclusion: Adding speed camera alerts to your Mercedes A180 – Automatic Sport can be a valuable feature for safe driving. While encountering issues with USB drive recognition in the “Personal Points of Interest” section can be frustrating, following the troubleshooting steps outlined in this article should help you resolve the problem. Remember to ensure USB drive compatibility, use the correct file system format, maintain the proper folder structure, check for software updates, and seek professional assistance if needed. With patience and persistence, you can enjoy the added safety benefits of speed camera alerts in your Mercedes.
