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
vehicle settings can be stored. Every remote
control 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 au‐
tomatically applied.
If several drivers use their own remote control,
the vehicle will adjust the personal settings
during unlocking. These settings are also re‐
stored, 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 iDrive, the set‐
tings saved in it will be applied automatically.
The new profile is assigned to the remote con‐
trol currently used.
There is an additional guest 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
functions are saved in the active profile. The
scope of storable settings is country- and
equipment-dependable.▷Unlocking and locking.▷Lights.▷Climate control.▷Radio.▷Instrument cluster.▷Programmable memory buttons.▷Volumes, tone.▷Control Display.▷Navigation.▷Park Distance Control PDC.▷Rearview camera.▷Driving Dynamics Control.▷Driver's seat position, exterior mirror posi‐
tion, steering wheel position.▷Intelligent Safety.
Profile management

ferent profile may be activated.

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.

file to avoid confusion between the profiles.

Speed limit detection
The concept
Speed limit detection
Speed limit detection shows the current maxi‐
mum permitted speed in the instrument clus‐
ter. The camera in the area of the interior mir‐
ror detects traffic signs at the edge of the road
as well as variable overhead sign posts. Traffic
signs with extra symbols for wet road condi‐
tions, etc. are also detected and compared
with the vehicle's onboard data, such as for the
rain sensor, and will be displayed depending
on the situation. The system takes into ac‐
count the information stored in the navigation
system and also displays speed limits present
on routes without signs.
Information WARNING

personal responsibility to correctly assess visi‐
bility and traffic situation. There is risk of an ac‐
