In addition toprov iding the actual control unit
function, this data assists the manufacturer in
de tecting and rectifying malfunctions and opti‐
mizing vehicle functions. The majority of this
data is temp orary and is only processed in the
ve hicle itself. Only a small portion of the data is
st ored in theeve nt or malfunction memor y.
When your vehicle is serviced, tech nical da ta
from theve hicle can be read out byservice net‐
wo rkemplo yees or third parties. Services
include repair services, maintenance processes,
wa rranty events and quality assurance meas‐
ures, forex ample. The read out is per form ed via
th e legally prescribed port for OBD ("on-board diagnostics") in
theve hicle. The respective
service network locations or third parties col‐

Malfunction memories in theve hicle can be

The EDR is designed torecord data related to
ve hicle dynamics and saf etysy stems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed torecord
such data as:
RHowvarious sy stems in your vehicle were
operating
RWhe ther or not the driver and front
passenger seat belts werebuckled/fas tened
RHow far (if at all) the driver was depressing
th e accelera tor and/or brake pedal and,
RHow fasttheve hicle was tr ave ling
This data can help pr ovide a better under stand‐
ing of the circums tances in which accidents and
inju ries occur. NOTE: EDR data is recorded by
yo ur vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation
occurs; no data is recorded bythe EDR under
normal driving conditions and no personal data
(e.g. name, gende r,age and accident location) is
re corded. Ho wever,ot her parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine EDR data with the
type of pe rsonally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash inve stigation. Ac
cess totheve hicle and/or the EDR is needed
to read data that is recorded bythe EDR, and
special equipment is requ ired. In addition tothe
ve hicle manufacturer, other parties that ha vethe
special equipment can also read the information.
such as law enforcement
, canread the informa‐
tion byaccessing theve hicle or the EDR.
EDR data may be used in civil and criminal mat‐
te rs as a tool in accident reconstruction, acci‐
dent claims and vehicle saf ety. Since the Crash
Data Retrie val (CDR) tool that is used toextract
da ta from the EDR is commercially available,
Mercedes-Benz US A,LLC ("MBUSA") expressly
disclaims any and all liability arising from the
ex traction of this information byunauthorized
Mercedes-Benz personnel.
MBUSA willnot share EDR data withot hers with‐
out the consent of theve hicle owner or, if the
ve hicle is leased, without the consent of the les‐
see. Exceptions tothis representation include
re sponses tosubpoenas bylaw enforcement; by
fe deral, state or local go vernment; in connection
with or arising out of litigation in volving MBU SA
or its subsidiaries and af filiates; or, as required
by law. Wa
rning: the EDR is a component of the
Re stra int Sy stem Module. Tamp ering with, alter‐
ing, modifying or removing the EDR component
may result in a malfunction of theRe stra int Sys‐
