Call priority
If other service calls such as a Roadside
Assistance call or Information call are ac-
tive, an Emergency call is still possible. In
this case, the Emergency call will take pri-
ority and override all other active calls.
i
The indicator lamp in the Information
button ¡ remains illuminated in red for
approximately 10 seconds during the system
self-check after switching on ignition (together
with the SOS button and the Roadside
Assistance button ).
See “System self-check” (
page 263) when the
indicator lamp does not come on in red or stays
on longer than approximately 10 seconds.
If the indicator lamp in the Information
button ¡ is flashing continuously and there
was no voice connection to the Response Center
established, then the Tele Aid system could not
initiate an Information call (e.g. the relevant cel-
lular phone network is not available). The
message
Call failed
appears in the multi-
function display.
Information calls can be terminated using the
button
t on the multifunction steering
wheel or the respective button for ending a tele-
phone call on the audio system or COMAND*
head unit.
!
If the indicator lamps do not start flashing
after pressing one of the buttons or remain illu-
minated (in red) at any time, the Tele Aid system
has detected a malfunction or the service is not
currently active, and may not initiate a call. Visit
your Mercedes-Benz Center and have the
system checked or contact the Response Center
at 1-800-756-9018 (in the USA) or
1-888-923-8367 (in Canada) as soon as possi-
ble.
i
The indicator lamp in the respective button
flashes until the call is concluded. Calls can only
be terminated by a Response Center or Custom-
er Assistance Center representative, except
Roadside Assistance and Information calls,
which can also be terminated by pressing the
t button on the multifunction steering wheel
or the respective button for ending a telephone
call on the audio system or COMAND* head unit.
!
If the indicator lamp continues to flash or
the system does not reset, contact the Response
Center at 1-800-756-9018 (in the USA) or
1-888-923-8367 (in Canada), or Mercedes-Benz
