Personal Profile
The concept
Using Personal Profile, individual settings for
several drivers can be saved and called up
again at a later time.
General information
There are three profiles with which personal ve‐
hicle settings can be stored. Every remote con‐
trol has one of these profiles assigned.
If the vehicle is unlocked using a remote con‐
trol, the assigned personal profile will be acti‐
vated. All settings stored in the profile are auto‐
matically applied.
If several drivers use their own remote control,
the vehicle will adjust the personal settings dur‐
ing unlocking. These settings are also restored,
if the vehicle has been used in the meantime
by a person with a different remote control.
Changes to the settings are automatically saved
in the profile currently activated.
If another profile is selected via the onboard
monitor, the settings saved in it will be applied
automatically. The new profile is assigned to
the remote control currently used.
There is an additional profile available that is
not assigned to any remote control: It can be
used to apply settings in the vehicle without
changing the personal profiles.
Adjusting
The settings for the following systems and func‐
tions are saved in the active profile. The scope
of storable settings is country- and equipment-
dependable.
▷Unlocking and locking.▷Lights.▷Radio.▷Instrument cluster.▷Programmable memory buttons.▷Volumes, tone.▷Control Display.▷Climate control.▷Navigation.▷Park Distance Control PDC.▷Rearview camera▷Head-up Display.▷Driving Dynamics Control.▷Intelligent Safety.
Profile management
Opening profiles
Regardless of the remote control in use a differ‐
ent profile may be activated.
On the Control Display:
1. "Settings"2."Profiles"3.Select a profile.
The following functions are executed:
▷All settings stored in the called-up profile
are automatically applied.
▷The called-up profile is assigned to the re‐
mote control being used at the time.
▷If the profile is already assigned to a differ‐
ent remote control, this profile will apply to
both remote controls. It cannot be differen‐
tiated anymore between the settings for
the two remote controls.
Renaming profiles
A personal name can be assigned to every pro‐
file to avoid confusion between the profiles.
On the Control Display:
1. "Settings"2."Profiles"
The current profile is selected.
3.Open "Options".4."Rename current profile"Seite 36CONTROLSOpening and closing36

Resetting profiles
The settings of the active profile are reset to
their default values.
On the Control Display:
1. "Settings"2."Profiles"
The current profile is selected.
3.Open "Options".4."Reset current profile"
Exporting profiles
Most settings of the active profile can be ex‐
ported.
This can be helpful for securing and retrieving
personal settings, before delivering the vehicle
to a workshop, for example. Profiles can be
taken to another vehicle equipped with the
Personal Profile function.
Export is made via the USB port to a USB de‐
vice.
Popular file systems for USB devices are sup‐
ported. FAT32 and exFAT are the recom‐
mended formats for profile export. Other for‐
mats may not support the export.

ported via the USB interface.
Existing settings are overwritten with the im‐
ported profile.

vehicle temporarily and do not have their own
profile.
