Information on the emergency call system
USA only: Your vehicle is equipped with the Emer-
gency Call System ("eCall"). This feature can help
save lives in the event of an accident. eCall in no
way replaces assistance provided from dialing 911.
eCall only functions in areas where mobile phone
coverage is available from the wireless service pro-
viders. Insufficient network coverage from the
wireless service providers may result in an emer-
gency call not being transmitted.
eCall is a standard feature in your Mercedes-Benz
vehicle. In order to function as intended, the sys-
tem relies on the transmission of data detailed in
the Transmitted Data section that follows
(
/
page 227). To disable eCall, a customer must
visit an authorized Mercedes-Benz Service depart-
ment to deactivate the vehicle's communication
module.
Deactivation of this module prevents the activa-
tion of any and all Mercedes me connect services.
After the deactivation of eCall, automatic emer-
gency call and manual emergency call will not be
available.
The ignition must be switched on before an auto-
matic emergency call can be made.
%
eCall is activated at the factory.
%
eCall can be deactivated by an authorized
Mercedes-Benz dealer. Please note that in the
event ownership of the vehicle is transferred
to another owner in its deactivated state, eCall
will remain deactivated unless the new owner
visits an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership
to reactivate the system.
Overview of the emergency call system
eCall can help to reduce the time between an acci-
dent and the arrival of emergency services at the
site of the accident. It helps locate an accident site
in places that are difficult to access. However,
even if a vehicle is equipped with eCall, this does
not mean the system is ON. As such, eCall does
not replace dialing 911 in the event of an accident.
An emergency call can be made automatically
(
/
page 227) or manually (
/
page 227). 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.
