Step by step.
- 01
Park outdoors in a ventilated area, select Park and verify the hood, doors, windows and sliding roof are closed.
- 02
Lock the vehicle and confirm the panic alarm, hazard lights and anti-theft alarm conditions do not block remote start.
- 03
Open the Mercedes-Benz App, select the linked CLE and send the remote engine-start command.
- 04
Confirm the app reports a successful start; the engine runs for up to ten minutes for that request.
- 05
Stop the engine from the app or by pressing the applicable lock/Mercedes-Benz button on the key.
Important limits
- Never remote-start a combustion engine in a closed garage or other unventilated space.
- Only two consecutive remote starts are permitted before the vehicle must be started once with the key.
- Remote start is blocked when required security, closure, fuel or vehicle-status conditions are not satisfied.
Quick checks.
- ✓If the command fails, check Park, locks, hood, doors, windows, roof, hazard lights and fuel level.
- ✓Confirm the app is linked to the correct vehicle and both phone and vehicle have connectivity.
- ✓After two consecutive attempts, start the vehicle normally with the key before trying Remote Online again.
