The Tele Aid system
(Telematic Alarm Identification on
Demand)
The Tele Aid system consists of three
types of response:
automatic and manual emergency
roadside assistance and
information.
The Tele Aid system is operational provid-
ing that the vehicle's battery is charged,
properly connected, not damaged and cel-
lular and GPS coverage is available.
To activate, press the SOS button, the
Roadside Assistance button • or
the Information button ¡ , depend-
ing on the type of response required.
i
The SOS button is located in the over-
head control panel. The Roadside
Assistance button • and the Infor-
mation button ¡ are located below
the center armrest cover.
Shortly after the completion of your Tele
Aid acquaintance call, you will receive a
user ID and password via first call mail. By
visiting www.mbusa.com and selecting
"Tele Aid" (USA only), you will have access
to account information, remote door un-
lock and more.
!
The Tele Aid system utilizes the cellular
network for communication and the
GPS (Global Positioning System) satel-
lites for vehicle location. If either of
these signals are unavailable, the Tele
Aid system may not function and if this
occurs, assistance must be summoned
by other means.
System self-check
Initially, after turning the key in the steer-
ing lock to position 2, malfunctions are de-
tected and indicated (the indicator lamps
in the SOS button, the Roadside Assis-
tance button • and the Information
button ¡ stay on longer than
10 seconds or do not come on).

Warning!
If the indicator lamps in the SOS button, in
the Roadside Assistance button, and/or in
the Information button do not come on dur-
ing the system self-check or if any of these
indicators remain illuminated constantly in
red after the system self-check, a malfunc-
tion in the system has been detected.
If a malfunction is indicated as outlined
above, the system may not operate as ex-
pected. Have the system checked at the
nearest Mercedes-Benz Center as soon as
possible.
