Remote door lock
If you have forgotten to lock your vehicle
and are no longer near it, you can have it
locked remotely through the Response
Center.
The vehicle can be remotely locked within
4 days after the ignition has been switched
off.
̈ 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 pass-
word which you provided when you
completed the subscriber agreement.
When you are inside your vehicle the next
time and switch on the ignition, the mes-
sage
Tele Aid Doors locked by remote
control
will appear on the multifunction
display.
Automatic Maintenance Call
The C-Class is equipped with a feature that
considerably enhances vehicle care. Just
prior to reaching a vehicle maintenance
milestone, Tele Aid transmits important ve-
hicle maintenance information that alerts
your authorized Mercedes-Benz Center of
required service. This is automatic and
does not require driver intervention. This
feature allows your preferred
Mercedes-Benz Center to significantly im-
prove the process of arranging your ser-
vice appointment and ensures that your
vehicle receives the best possible care.
Stolen Vehicle Recovery services
In the event your vehicle was stolen:
̈ Report the incident to the police.
The police will issue a numbered
incident report.
̈ Pass this number on to the
Mercedes-Benz Response Center along
with your password issued to you when
you subscribed to the service.
The Response Center will then attempt
to covertly contact the vehicle’s
Tele Aid system. Once the vehicle is
located, the Response Center will
contact the local law enforcement and
you. The vehicle’s location will only be
provided to law enforcement.
Once the vehicle is unlocked, a Response Center
specialist might attempt to establish voice con-
tact with the vehicle occupants.
If the trunk lid handle was pulled for more than
20 seconds before door unlock authorization
was received by the Response Center, you must
wait 15 minutes before pulling the trunk lid han-
dle again.
