Overview of emergency call systems
Both the Mercedes-Benz emergency call system as well as the 112 emergency
call system (EU eCall) can help to reduce the time between an accident and
the arrival of emergency services at the site of the accident. They help locate
an accident site in places that are difficult to access.
Both emergency call systems can initiate an emergency call automatically
(/page525) or manually (/page526).
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.
INDICATORS IN THE DISPLAYS
THE FOLLOWING MESSAGES APPEAR ON THE CENTRAL DISPLAY OR THE
MEDIA DISPLAY OF BOTH EMERGENCY CALL SYSTEMS:
R
SOS NOT READY
: the vehicle is not switched on or the emergency call
system is malfunctioning. This does not necessarily indicate complete
failure of the emergency call system. Emergency calls can still be trans‐
mitted.
The display only refers to the vehicle and does not take account of
the availability of mobile phone networks and the Mercedes-Benz emer‐
gency call centre.
