It is possible that you may not be able to
receive calls when an Internet connection
is active. This depends on the mobile phone
and the mobile phone network used.
Conditions for access
USA: to use Mercedes-Benz apps and Inter-
net access, mbrace must be activated and
operational. Furthermore, mbrace must be
activated for Mercedes-Benz apps and Inter-
net access. Take note of the connection pri-
orities. An emergency call has the highest pri-
ority. When a service call, e.g. a breakdown
service call or the MB Info Call, is active, an
emergency call can still be initiated. A service
call, on the other hand, has priority over a
current Internet connection. Therefore, you
cannot establish an Internet connection dur-
ing a service call.
Canada: a mobile phone must be connected
via Bluetooth
®

associated connection costs.
