Call priority

If other service calls such as a
Roadside Assistance call or Information
call are active, an Emergency call is still
possible. In this case, the Emergency call
will take priority and override all other ac-
tive calls.

See system self-check (

page 293) when the

indicator lamp does not come on in red or stays
on longer than approximately 10 seconds.

If the indicator lamp on the Information
button

¡ is flashing continuously and there

was no voice connection to the Response Center
established, then the Tele Aid system could not
initiate an Information call (e.g. the relevant cel-
lular phone network is not available). The mes-
sage

Call failed appears in the multifunction

display.

Information calls can be terminated using
button

t on the multifunction steering wheel

or the respective button for ending a telephone
call on the COMAND headunit.

!

If the indicator lamps do not start flashing

after pressing one of the buttons or remain illu-
minated (in red) at any time, the Tele Aid system
has detected a malfunction or the service is not
currently active, and may not initiate a call. Visit
an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center and have
the system checked or contact the Response
Center at 1-800-756-9018 (in the USA) or
1-888-923-8367 (in Canada) as soon as possi-
ble.

i

The indicator lamp in the respective button

flashes until the call is concluded. Calls can only
be terminated by a Response Center or Custom-
er Assistance Center representative except
Roadside Assistance and Information calls,
which can also be terminated by pressing
button

t on the multifunction steering wheel

or the respective button for ending a telephone
call on the COMAND headunit.

!

If the indicator lamp continues to flash or

the system does not reset, contact the Response
Center at 1-800-756-9018 (in the USA) or
1-888-923-8367 (in Canada), or Mercedes-Benz
Customer Assistance at 1-800-FOR-MERCedes
(1-800-367-6372) in the USA or Customer Ser-
vice at 1-800-387-0100 in Canada.

When a Tele Aid call has been initiated, the

COMAND system audio is muted and the select-
ed mode (radio or CD) pauses. The optional cel-
lular phone (if installed) switches off. If you must
use this phone, the vehicle must be parked. Dis-
connect the coiled cord and place the call. The
COMAND navigation* system (if engaged) will
continue to run. The multifunction display in the
instrument cluster is available for use, and spo-
ken commands are only available by pressing the
RPT button on the COMAND unit. A pop-up win-
dow will appear in the COMAND display to indi-
cate that a Tele Aid call is in progress.
