In addition toprov iding the actual control unit
function, this data assists the manufacturer in
de tecting and rectifying faults and optimising
ve hicle functions. The majority of this data is
te mp orary and is only processed in theve hicle
itself. Only a small portion of the data is stored
in theev ent or fault memor y.
When your vehicle is serviced, tech nical da ta
from theve hicle can be read out byservice net‐
wo rkemplo yees (e.g. workshops, manufactur‐
ers) or third parties (e.g. breakdown services).
Services include repair services, maintenance
processes, warranty claims and quality assur‐ ance measures,
forex ample. The read out is per‐
fo rm ed via the legally prescribed port forthe
diagnostics connection in theve hicle. The
re spective service network locations or third
parties collect, process and use the data. They
document tech nical statuses of theve hicle,
assist in finding faults and impr oving quality and
are transmit tedto the manufacturer, if neces‐
sar y.Fu rthermore, the manufacturer is subject
to product liability. Forth is, the manufacturer
re qu ires tech nical da tafrom vehicles.
Fa ult memories in theve hicle can be reset by a
service outlet as part of repair or maintenance

Depending on the selected equipment, you can
import data into vehicle con venience and info‐

This includes, forex ample:

R address book data for use in connection with
an integrated hands-free sy stem or an inte‐
grated navigation sy stem R

R data about the use of internet services
This data can be sa ved locally in theve hicle or it
is located on a device which you ha veconnected
to theve hicle (e.g. a smartphone, USB flash
drive or MP3 pla yer). If this data is stored in the
ve hicle, you can dele teit at any time. This data
is sent tothird parties only at your requ est, par‐
ticular lywhen you use online services in accord‐
ance with the settings that you ha veselected.
Yo u can store or change con venience settings/

R suspension and climate control settings
R customisations such as interior lighting
If yo ur vehicle is accordingly equipped, you can

reless network connection
If yo ur vehicle has a wireless network connec‐

yo ur vehicle and additional sy stems. The wire‐ less network connection is enabled via
theve hi‐

Online functions can be used via the wireless
network connection. This includes online serv‐

Manu factu rer's se rvices
Re garding online services of the manufacturer,
th e individual functions are described bythe
manufacturer in a suita ble place (e.g. Owner's
Manual, website of the manufacturer) along with
th ere leva nt da taprotection information. Per‐
sonal data may be used forth e pr ovision of
online services. Data is exch anged via a secure
connection, e.g. the manufacturer's designated
IT sy stems. Personal data is collected, pro‐
cessed and used via the pr ovision of services
exc lusively on the basis of legal permissions or
with prior consent.
The services and functions (sometimes subject
to afe e) can usually be activated or deactivated.
In some cases, this also applies tothe entire

R Before starting your journe y,adjust your seat
co rrectly; the driver's seat and front
passenger seat should be mo ved as far back
as possible. When doing so, alw
ays obser vethe informa‐

(/ page 102).
R Onlyhold thesteering wheel bythesteering
wheel rim. This allow sth e airbag tobe fully
deplo yed.
R Alw ays lean against the seat backrest when
th eve hicle is in motion. Do not lean forw ards
or against the door or side windo w.You may
ot herwise be in the deployment area of the
airbags.
R Alw ayske ep your feet on thefloor. Do not
put your feet on the cockpit, forex ample.
Yo ur feet may otherwise be in the deploy‐
ment area of the airbag.
R Ifch ildren are tra velling in theve hicle,
obser vethe additional no tes (/ page 53).
R Alw aysstow and secure objects cor rectl y. Objects in
theve hicle interior may pr event an
airbag from functioning cor rectly. Each vehicle
occupant must alw ays make sure of thefo llow‐
ing in particular:
R There are no people, animals or objects
between theve hicle occupants and an air‐
bag.
R There are no objects between the seat, door
and door pillar (B-pillar).
R There are no hard objects, e.g. coat hangers,
hanging on the grab handles or coat hooks.
R There are no accessory parts, such as mobile
navigation devices, mobile phones or cup
holders, attached totheve hicle within the
deployment area of an airbag, e.g. on the
cockpit, on the door, on the side window or
on the side wall trim.
In addition, no connecting cables, tensioning
st ra ps or retaining stra ps must be routed or
attached totheve hicle within the deploy‐
