Nav system

Am I too dumb to figure out how to enable it or does the MB Nav system not show street names on the map. My 06 R171 is the 5th Nav system I've owned and the first not to show street names.

It shows street names on mine. Have you tried zooming in? The street name should also be listed on top of the screen whenever you need to follow the command.

The street name appears at the top. On 2 prior Infiniti's and one BMW, the street names actually appear on the streets themselves when you've got it zoomed to the closest views. Really helpful at times.
