Overview of transferred vehicle data
When using Smar
tphone Integration, certain vehi-
cle data is transferred to the mobile phone. This
enables you to get the best out of selected mobile
phone services. Vehicle data is not directly acces-
sible.
The following system information is transmitted:
= Sosware release of the multimedia system
= System ID (anonymised) The transfer of this data is used to optimise com-
munication be

tween 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 312).
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 =
A cceleration 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 available emergency call systems

tems. This will be explained in the "Data trans-
f
er" section ( page 337).
= Both emergency call systems are included as
standard equipment in your vehicle and are
activated at the factory. =
The use of bo th emergency call systems is
exempt from charges.
= Both emergency call systems only function in
areas in which the mobile phone network pro-
viders oMer mobile phone coverage. For both systems,
insuPcient ne twork cover-
age from the mobile phone network providers
can result in an emergency call not being
transmitted.
DiMerences be
tween the Mercedes-Benz emergency call system and 112 emergency call system (EU eCall) Mercedes-Benz emergency call system
112 emergency call system (EU eCall)
= The Mer
cedes-Benz emergency call system is permanently logged in to
the mobile phone network.
= Automatic and manual Mercedes-Benz emergency calls are transmitted
to a Mercedes-Benz emergency call centre.
In the event that the emergency call centre of the Mercedes-Benz emer-
gency call system cannot be reached (e.g. due to a lack of network cov-
erage), the 112 emergency call is carried out automatically. =
If y ou decide to use the 112 emergency call system (EU eCall), then the
system only logs in to the mobile phone network aser the triggering of a
manual or automatic emergency call.
= The 112 emergency call system (EU eCall) transmits automatic and
manual emergency calls directly to public coordination centres. %
The 112 emergency call system (EU eCall) in
y
our vehicle meets the delegated regulation
EU 2017/79. Proper and full functionality of
the 112 emergency call system (EU eCall)
depends on circumstances beyond the inOu-
ence of Mercedes-Benz AG. This includes mobile network coverage and the technical
infr astructure of the public reception centres
in the respective countries.
% Please observe that in the event of a repair
g

enuine Mercedes-Benz batteries must be
used which have been certiNed pursuant to the delegated regulation EU 2017/79 (Appen-
dix I). Ot

her manufacturers are also permitted
provided their batteries are certiNed accord-
ing to the delegated regulation EU 2017/79.

Benz emer
gency call system and using only the MBUX multimedia system

112 emergency call system (EU eCall). Contact
addr
ess for carrying out deactivation of the
Mercedes-Benz emergency call system are the
local dealers.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the activation of the
Mercedes-Benz emergency call system for the fol-
lowing reasons:
= In emergency situations when abroad, you can
also get support in a language you speak.
= Several transmission technologies are used to
accelerate the transfer of the accident data
and improve reliability of the transmission.
= The Mercedes-Benz emergency call system is
permanently logged in to the mobile phone
network, which ensures faster placement of
the emergency call and faster transfer of the
accident data.
Measures for rescue, recovery or towing away
can then be initiated in quickly.
= With a Mercedes-Benz emergency call, the
accident data is only transferred to the public
coordination centre with the approval of the
customer. In the event of an automatically triggered
emer gency call in which there is no voice con-
tact, the accident data is transmitted immedi-
ately to the public emergency call centre.
= Should the Mercedes-Benz emergency call
centre not be available, the 112 emergency
call is carried out automatically. Overview of emergency call systems
Both the Mercedes-Benz emergency call system
as w
ell 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 acci-
dent site in places that are diPcult to access.
Both emergency call systems can initiate an emer-
gency call automatically (  page 337) or man-
ually ( page 337).
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. Messages on the display
The f

ollowing messages appear in the display of
both emergency call systems:
= SOS NOT READY : the vehicle is not switched
on or the emergency call system is malfunc-
tioning. This does not necessarily indicate
complete failure of the emergency call system.
Emergency calls can still be transmitted.
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.
The functional readiness of the emergency call
system on the vehicle can be seen when the
SOS NOT READY display disappears once the
vehicle is switched on.
= S: The icon appears in the display during
an active emergency call.
% If there is a malfunction in the emergency call
sy

stem (e.g. a fault with the speaker, micro-
phone, airbag, SOS button), a corresponding
message appears on the instrument display. 336
