Guidelines for Car Rescue Crews
Introduction
Preface
Dear Reader,
One of Daimler’s main priorities has traditionally been to guarantee the highest
possible standards of safety. For this reason our vehicles always represent the
state of the art. This also applies, in particular, to vehicle safety.
Our safety concept is as comprehensive as possible and also extends to
providing rescue crews with information about our vehicles and their safety
systems. Rescue crews must be able to gain access to the accident victims
as quickly as possible without exposing them or themselves to avoidable
additional danger. Along with well-founded training, knowledge of the vehicle-
specific accessibility options and the safety systems’ operational and functional
principles is absolutely essential. Mercedes-Benz has been providing this
information in its “Guidelines for Rescue Crews” since March 1994. The
guidelines have been revised and updated regularly ever since. The guidelines
describe standard methods used for extracting accident victims from the vehicle.
However, we would like to emphasize here that these guidelines cannot
claim to be exhaustive and on no account should they, nor are they intended
to, act as a substitute for proper specialist training and the relevant specialized
literature. With this edition, these guidelines now appear in a new form and
with a new content structure. The constant further development of our vehicles,
in particular, in the area of vehicle safety, along with the extensions to our
product range have required a revision of both the content and formal structure
of the guidelines.

Vehicle identification with QR code
The QR code provides rescue crews with quick and direct access through
Internet-capable mobile devices to the digital rescue data sheets (rescue cards)
of all Mercedes-Benz cars and smart vehicles. This requires only a free-of-
charge, freely downloadable app for scanning QR codes. By scanning the QR
code, the current rescue card for the vehicle in question is displayed in the
language configured in the mobile device.
The QR code adhesive labels (rescue stickers) have been attached since 2014
as standard to all new Mercedes-Benz passenger cars and smart vehicles.
Customers whose vehicles do not yet have rescue stickers have been able to
have them retrofitted at any Mercedes-Benz service operation since 2014.
The rescue stickers are available for vehicles as of the 1990 year of manu-
facture. The QR code adhesive labels are affixed to the tank cap and to the
B-pillar on the opposite side of the vehicle. If a serious accident is detected
and the doors are automatically unlocked, the QR code can thus be quickly
found and read with a smartphone or a tablet PC.
