Mercedes-BenzEmergency call system
Information on the Mercedes-Benz emer‐
gency call system
The Mercedes-Benz emergency call system only
functions in areas where mobile phone coverage
is available from the relevant contract partner.
Insufficient network coverage from the relevant
contract partner may result in an emergency call
not being transmitted.
The ignition must be switched on before an auto‐
matic emergency call can be made.
%
The Mercedes-Benz emergency call system is
activated at the factory. Using the Mercedes-
Benz emergency call system is free of charge.
Overview of the Mercedes-Benz emergency
call system
The Mercedes-Benz emergency call system can
help to decisively reduce the time between an
accident and the arrival of emergency services at
the site of the accident. It helps locate an acci‐
dent site in places that are difficult to access.
The emergency call can be triggered automati‐
cally (
/
page 294).
You also have the option of triggering the emer‐
gency call manually (
/
page 294). Only make
emergency calls if you or others are in need of
rescue. Do not make an emergency call in the
event of a breakdown or a similar situation.
Message in the media display:
SOS NOT READY
: the ignition is not on or there is
a malfunction with the emergency call system.
This does not necessarily indicate a total failure
of the emergency call system. Emergency calls
can still be transmitted.
The display refers only to the vehicle and does
not take account of the availability of mobile
phone networks and the Mercedes-Benz emer‐
gency call centre.
The functionality of the emergency call system on
the vehicle can be seen when the
SOS NOT
READY
display goes out when the ignition is
switched on.
During an active emergency call,
G
appears in
the display.
You can find more information on the regional
availability of the Mercedes-Benz emergency call
system at: http://www.mercedes-benz.com/

If an emergency call is unavailable due to a
technical problem in the vehicle, a message
to this effect will appear on the multifunction
display of the instrument cluster.
