For technical reasons mixed Startkeys are no longer available as of January 2024. Either a Daimler Truck or a Mercedes-Benz Start Key needs to be chosen:

Customers selecting a Daimler Truck Start Key:

• Please inform Mercedes-Benz AG until the latest May 2023 (via XSF or email xentry.customer.support@mercedes-benz.com) by naming your system number and stating that you wish not to use a Mercedes-Benz Startkey.

• The Daimler Truck Startkey will need to be ordered at Daimler Truck AG directly. You will receive an update regarding the ordering process.

• You will keep your current rental device until the end of the recommended period of use of 42 months, but at most until the end of 2025. Rental devices will be returned to the current hardware contract partner, Mercedes-Benz AG until the end of 2025. As of January 2024, the new Daimler Truck software will be installed remotely on your devices.

Customers selecting a Mercedes-Benz Start Key:

• In this case no further action is required.
