It is possible that you may not be able to

receive calls when an Internet connection

is active. This depends on the mobile phone

and the mobile phone network used.

Conditions for access

USA: to use Mercedes-Benz apps and Inter-

net access, mbrace must be activated and

operational. Furthermore, mbrace must be

activated for Mercedes-Benz apps and Inter-

net access. Take note of the connection pri-

orities. An emergency call has the highest pri-

ority. 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 dur-

ing a service call.
Canada: a mobile phone must be connected
via Bluetooth
