Cobra Connex ICD31
Cobra Connex is a sophisticated vehicle tracking system with a 24 hour
Secure Operating Centre (SOC) theft monitoring and stolen vehicle
recovery service.
Should your car be stolen, the SOC will instantly be able to pinpoint the
exact location of your car using the latest GPS and GSM technology.
Police liaison is conducted nationally and in Sabah and Sarawak by
the SOC.
Once located, the police will know the speed at which your car is
travelling, the road it’s on and even the direction of travel - vital
information to help them track and recover your car without engaging
in a potentially dangerous high-speed pursuit.
In short, Cobra Connex gives you the best chance of ensuring your
Mercedes remains your Mercedes.
Introduction
To reduce the possibility of the car being broken into or stolen, the
following precautions should always be taken when leaving the car
unattended.
• Close all windows. The smallest gap could present an opportunity
to a thief. Take all valuables with you, or lock them in the glove box
or boot compartment.
• Never leave the driver card in the car, refer to information under
the heading “Driver card” on page 4.
• If towing, transporting or servicing the car, refer to information under
the heading “Transportation and service procedures” on page 5.
• Ensure all doors and boot compartment are locked and the anti-theft
alarm system is armed.
• Always park in an area where there is GSM network coverage - you
can verify this with your mobile phone.
• At night, park in a well illuminated area.

Cobra Connex ICD31
2 driver cards are supplied with the system.
The driver card should always be carried separately from the car keys
e.g. in your pocket, wallet or purse.
Cobra Connex recognises you as the authorised driver by detecting
your unique driver card when you are within approximately 1 - 5 meters
from your car. The ADR LED will blink when the driver card is out of
range and goes off when the driver card is detected.
If your vehicle is driven without the driver card, vehicle tracking and
recovery procedure is started automatically. You will receive a theft
alert on your mobile phone followed by a call from the SOC – and if
theft is conrmed, the SOC will initiate stolen vehicle recovery (SVR)
procedure on your car i.e. liaising with the police and continuously
updating it’s location for them to recover and return your car to you as
quickly as possible.
Driver card
The driver card has to be switched on for it to work. To switch on, briey
press the button on the driver card until the LED starts to blink.
To switch the driver card off to conserve the battery – for example if it
is to be stored and not used, press and hold the driver card button for
around 8 seconds until the LED goes off.
Automatic Driver Recognition (ADR) overview
As many as 4 driver cards can be used with the system at any one
time. If additional driver card is required, contact any Cycle and Carriage
Bintang Dealer.
To reduce the risk of car theft, lost driver card should immediately be reported
to Connex Customer Service where the lost card will be excluded from the
system. You will need to purchase a new driver card to replace the lost one.

If the car is driven with the ADR LED still blinking, vehicle tracking and
recovery procedure is automatically started and you will receive an SMS
theft alert followed by a call from the SOC.
WARNING

The driver card should not be left in the car as this will compromise the ADR
protection function. In case of valet parking or servicing at a service dealer,
keep the driver card with you.

Important
WARNING
!
Never leave the driver card in the car.
The driver card should always be carried with you. If it is left in the car,
the ADR function is compromised and in case of a theft by stealing or
duplicating your car keys, the system will not be able to generate theft
alerts.
Driving the car
With your unique driver card with you, the ADR LED should be off
when you turn or press the ignition on to start the car. If the ADR LED
is still blinking, this means your driver card has not been detected by
the system.

1-5 meters of you approaching the car. If it is still blinking, briey press
the button on the driver card to manually switch the ADR LED off before
starting the car.
