Switch off ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery! If according to factory rules  disconnecting the battery has to be avoided, it is usually sufficient to put the vehicle is  sleep-mode. In case the sleep-mode does not show success, disconnect the battery with a  resistor lead.

Place of installation is at the backside of the navigation unit:

A-class: On the A-pillar on the driver’s side

GLE, GLS: Below passenger seat

Sprinter: Behind the factory monitor

The vehicle is very responsive to disconnected vehicle parts while battery is connected.  Therefore the error memory of the vehicle must be deleted after installation.
