Overview of transferred vehicle data
When using Smartphone Integration, certain vehi-
cle data is transferred to the mobile phone. This enables you to get the best out of selected mobilephone services. Vehicle data is not directly acces-
sible.
The following system information is transmitted:
= Sosware release of the multimedia system
= System ID (anonymized)
The transfer of this data is used to optimize com-
munication between the vehicle and the mobile phone.
To do this, and to assign several vehicles to the
mobile phone, a vehicle identiNer is randomly gen-
erated.
This has no connection to the vehicle identiNca-
tion number (VIN) and is deleted when the multi-
media system is reset (  page 230).
The following driving status data is transmitted: = Transmission position engaged
= Distinction between parked, standstill, rolling
and driving
= Day/night mode of the instrument display
= Drive type
The transfer of this data is used to alter how con- tent is displayed to correspond to the driving sit-
uation.
The following position data is transmitted:
= Coordinates
= Speed
= Compass direction=Acceleration direction
This data is used by the mobile phone to improve
the accuracy of the navigation (e.g. for continua-
tion in a tunnel).
Mercedes-Benz emergency call system
Information on the Mercedes-Benz emergency
call system
Your vehicle is equipped with the Mercedes-Benz emergency call system ("eCall"). This feature can
help save lives in the event of an accident. eCall
in no way replaces assistance provided from dial-
ing 911.
Mercedes-Benz eCall only functions in areas
where mobile phone coverage is available from
the wireless service providers. *nsuPcient net-
work coverage from the wireless service providers may result in an emergency call not being trans-
mitted.
eCall is a standard feature in your Mercedes-Benz vehicle. In order to function as intended, the sys-tem relies on the transmission of data detailed in
250MBUX multimedia system

the "Mercedes-Benz emergency call system datatransmission" section that follows (  page 252).
To disable eCall, a customer must visit an author- ized Mercedes-Benz Service department to deac-
tivate the vehicle\bs communication module.
Deactivation of this module prevents the activa-
tion of any and all Mercedes me connect serv-
ices. Aser the deactivation of eCall, automatic
emergency call and manual emergency call will not be available.
The vehicle must be switched on before an auto-
matic emergency call can be made.\beCall is activated at the factory.\beCall can be deactivated by an authorized
Mercedes-Benz dealer. Please note that in the
event ownership of the vehicle is transferred
to another owner in its deactivated state,
eCall will remain deactivated unless the new owner visits an authorized Mercedes-Benz
dealership to reactivate the system.Overview of the Mercedes-Benz emergency call
system
eCall can help to reduce the time between an
accident and the arrival of emergency services at
the site of the accident. It helps locate an acci-
dent site in places that are diPcult to access.
However, even if a vehicle is equipped with eCall,
this does not mean the system is ON. As such, eCall does not replace dialing 911 in the event of
an accident.
An emergency call can be made automatically or
manually.
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.
