I’m sure a really stupid question but when the guides say plug in the battery charger what do they mean?
Am toying with trying the manual update but any idea if it will fix the bing bonging ‘emergency assist/travel assist’ alerts that have come back after being fixed a year ago with new steering wheel.
Losing the car for a whole day to get it looked at is a huge pain as inevitably involves having not take a day off work.

So the OUG1 software update is for the telematic OCU unit which you will find behind the AID display. It updates the software to 144.
Has nothing to do with the infotainment system…

Then what is it supposed to fix? I'm getting confused with all this updates talk here..

Still didn't get the OUG1.

A display appeared on my infotainment screen saying that an update was going to take place and various functions (including something to do with travel assist) would not be available for ten minutes. Unfortunately several times this message appeared less than ten minutes before the end of my journey. Eventually today a message appeared saying that the software update had been completed.

Does anyone know what this update included?

The update popped up for me too when I moved my car in the driveway. Will probably be installed later when I will drive to work.
