Useful features
Automatic Maintenance Call
The 2007 S-Class is equipped with a fea-
ture which considerably enhances the care
of your vehicle. Just prior to your vehicle
reaching a maintenance milestone Tele Aid
will initiate a message informing the ser-
vice center, important vehicle mainte-
nance information and the vehicle is due
for a service appointment. The message is
transmitted in the background with no
driver interaction necessary. This feature
allows your preferred Mercedes-Benz Cen-
ter to significantly improve the process of
arranging your service appointment and
ensures that your vehicle receives the best
possible care.Stolen Vehicle Recovery services
In the event your vehicle was stolen:
Report the incident to the police.
The police will issue a numbered
incident report.
Pass this number on to the
Mercedes-Benz Response Center along
with your password issued to you when
you subscribed to the service.
The Response Center will then attempt
to covertly contact the vehicle’s
Tele Aid system. Once the vehicle is
located, the Response Center will
contact the local law enforcement and
you. The vehicle’s location will only be
provided to law enforcement.

operating up to three separately controlled
devices. It provides a convenient way to re-
place up to three hand-held remote con-

er devices compatible with HomeLink
