Mercedes-Benz GLC : Mercedes-Benz emergency call system / Triggering an automatic Mercedes‑Benzemergency call
Requirements:
- The ignition is switched on.
- The starter battery is sufficiently charged.
The Mercedes‑Benz emergency call system triggers
an emergency call automatically in the following
cases:
- After activation of the restraint systems such
as airbags or Emergency Tensioning Devices
after an accident
- After an automatically initiated emergency
stop by Active Emergency Stop Assist
The emergency call has been made:
The SOS button in the overhead control panel
flashes until the emergency call is finished.
It is not possible to immediately end an automatic
emergency call.
If no connection can be made to the emergency
services either, a corresponding message
appears in the media display.
Dial the local emergency number
on your
mobile phone.
If an emergency call has been initiated:
- Remain in the vehicle if the road and traffic
conditions permit you to do so until a voice
connection is established with the emergency
call center operator.
- Based on the call, the operator decides
whether it is necessary to call rescue teams
and/or the police to the accident site.
- If no vehicle occupant answers, an ambulance
is sent to the vehicle immediately.

accident site in places that are difficult to
access...
