Remote door unlock
In the case you have your vehicle locked unintentionally
(e.g. key inside vehicle), and the reserve key is not
handy, contact the Mercedes-Benz Response Center at
1-800-756-9018 (in the USA) or 1-888-923-8367 (in
Canada). You will be asked to provide your password
which you provided when you completed the subscriber
agreement.
Then return to your vehicle and pull outside trunk
handle for a minimum of 20 seconds.
The Response Center will then unlock your vehicle with
the remote door unlocking feature.
Note:
The remote door unlock feature is available if the
relevant cellular phone network and GPS signals are
available.
Vehicle location/stolen vehicle tracking services
Should you wish to locate your vehicle, contact the
Mercedes-Benz Response Center at 1-800-756-9018 (in
the USA) or 1-888-923-8367 (in Canada). You will be
asked to provide your password which you provided
when you completed the subscriber agreement.
In the event your vehicle was stolen, report the incident
to the police who will issue a numbered incident report.
Pass this number on to the Mercedes-Benz Response
Center.
The Response Center will then attempt to covertly
contact the vehicle’s Tele Aid system. The electronic key
in the starter switch must be in position 1 or 2 and the
cellular and GPS signals must be available. The
Response Center will contact you at the phone
number(s) provided in the agreement once the vehicle
is located. The Response Center will attempt to contact
the vehicle until located, up to a maximum of 14 days or
until the vehicle location incident report is cancelled by
you.
