Priority of connections: an emergency call
has the highest priority. When a service call,
e.g. a breakdown service call or the MB Info
Call, is active, an emergency call can still be
initiated.
A service call, on the other hand, has priority over a current Internet connection. Therefore,you cannot establish an Internet connection
during a service call.

transmit audio data efficiently. To ensure the
best-possible reception, your mobile phone
should be connected to the vehicle's exterior
antenna via the phone bracket (optional).

net radio. An average 128 kbit per second
data transfer rate can transfer 56 MB of data
in one hour.
