ve
hicle itself. Control units of ten contain da ta
memories forve hicle keys,fo rex ample. Their
use permits thete mp orary or permanent docu‐
mentation of tech nical information about the
ve hicle's operating state, component loads,
main tenance requirements and tech nical events
or faults.
Depending on theve hicle equipment, thefo llow‐
ing data are stored:
R operating status of sy stem components,
such as fill le vels, tyre pressure or battery
st atus
R malfunctions or faults in impor tant sy stem
components, such as lights or brakes
R system reactions in special driving situations,
such as airbag deployment or the inter ven‐
tion of stability control sy stems
R information on events leading tovehicle
damage
In cer tain cases, it may be requiredtostore data
th at wo uld ha veotherwise been used only tem‐
porarily. This may be the case if theve hicle has
de tected a malfunction, forex ample. If
yo u use services, such as repair services and
maintenance work,st ored operational data as
we ll as theve hicle identification number can be
re ad out and used. They can be read out by
service network emplo yees, such as workshops
and manufacturers or third parties, such as
breakdown services. The same is true in the
case of warranty claims and quality assurance
measures.
In general, there adout is per form ed via the
legally prescribed port forth e diagnostics con‐
nection in theve hicle. The operational data that
are read out document tech nical states of the
ve hicle or of individual components and assist in
th e diagnosis of malfunctions, compliance with
wa rranty obligations and quality impr ovement.
To that end, these data, in particular information
about component loads, tech nical events, mal‐
functions and other faults may be transmit ted
along with theve hicle identification number to
th e manufacturer. Furthermore, the manufac‐
turer is subject toproduct liability. Forth is rea‐
son the manufacturer also uses operational data
from theve hicle, forex ample, forre calls. These da
ta can also be used toexamine the cus tom‐
er's warranty and guarantee claims.
Fa ult memories in theve hicle can be reset by a
service outlet or at your requ est as part of repair
or maintenance work.
Con venience and inf otainment functions
Yo u can store con venience settings and individ‐
ual settings in theve hicle and change or reset
th em at any time.
Depending on theve hicle equipment, this
includes thefo llowing settings, forex ample:
R seat and steering wheel positions
R suspension and climate control settings
R individual settings, such as interior lighting
Depending on the selected equipment, you can
import data into vehicle inf otainment functions
yo urself.

R the6 restra int sy stem warning lamp

WARNING Risk of injury duetomalfunc‐
tions in there stra int sy stem
Components in there stra int sy stem may be
activated unintentionally or not deploy as
intended in an accident. #
Have there stra int sy stem checked and
re paired immediately at a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop. Fu
nction of there stra int sy stem in an acci‐
dent How
there stra int sy stem works is de term ined by
th e se verity of the impact de tected and the type
of accident anticipated:
R Frontal impact
R Rear impact
R Side impact
R Rollover
The activation thre sholds forth e components of
th ere stra int sy stem are de term ined based on
th eev aluation of the sensor values measured at
va rious points in theve hicle. This process is pre-
em ptive in nature. The triggering/deployment of
th e components of there stra int sy stem must
ta ke place in good time at thest art of the colli‐
sion.
Fa ctors whi chcan only be seen and measu red
af te r a collision has occur red do not play a deci‐
sive role in the deployment of an airbag. Nordo
th ey prov ide an indication of airbag deployment.
The vehicle may be deformed significantly with‐
out an airbag being deplo yed. This is the case if only parts which are
relatively easily deformed
are af fected and thera te ofvehicle deceleration
is not high. Con versely, an airbag may be
deplo yedev en though theve hicle suf fers only
minor deformation. If very rigid vehicle parts
such as longitudinal members are hit, this may
re sult in suf ficiently high le vels of vehicle decel‐
eration.
Depending on the de tected deployment situa‐
tion, the components of there stra int sy stem can
be activated or deplo yed independently of each
ot her:
R Front seat belt tensioner: frontal impact, rear
impact, side impact, rollo ver
R Rear seat belt tensioner: frontal impact, rear
impact, rollo ver
R Driver's airbag, front passenger airbag: fron‐
tal impact
R Knee airbag: frontal impact
R Side airbag: side impact
R Window airbag: side impact, rollo ver,frontal

Self-test of automatic front passenger airbag
shutoff
When
the ignition is switched on, a self-test is
per form ed during which the two PASSENGER
AIR BAG ON and OFF indicator lamps light up
simul taneously.
The status of the front passenger airbag is dis‐
pla yed via thePA SSENGER AIR BAG indicator
lamps af terth e self-tes t:
R ON is lit: the front passenger airbag may
deploy during an accident.
The indicator lamp goes out af ter appro x‐
ima tely 60 seconds.
R ON and OF F are not lit: the front passenger
airbag may deploy during an accident.
R OFF is lit: the front passenger airbag is disa‐
bled. It will then not be deplo yed in theev ent
of an accident.
If th ePA SSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamp is
off, on lythePA SSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp sho ws thest atus of the front passenger
airbag. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp may be lit continuously or be off. If
th ePA SSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
and the6 restra int sy stem warning lamp
light up simultaneousl y,the front passenger seat
may not be used. Also in this case, do not fit a
ch ild restra int sy stem tothe front passenger
seat. Ha vethe automatic front passenger airbag
shutoff checked and repaired immediately at a
qu alified specialist workshop.
St atus display
If th e front passenger seat is occupied, ensure,
bo th before and during the journe y,that thest a‐
tus of the front passenger airbag is cor rect for
th e cur rent situation.
Af terfitting a rear wa rd-facing child restra int
sy stem tothe front passenger seat:
PA SSENGER AIR BAG OFF must be lit continu‐
ousl y. &
WARNING Risk of injury or death when
using a rear wa rd-facing child restra int
sy stem while the front passenger airbag
is enabled
If yo u secure a child in a rear wa rd-facing
ch ild restra int sy stem on the front passenger
seat and thePA SSENGER AIR BAG OFF indi‐
cator lamp is off, the front passenger airbag
can deploy in theev ent of an accident.
The child could be stru ck bythe airbag.
Alw ays ensure that the front passenger air‐
bag is disabled. The PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF indicator lamp must be lit.
NEVER use a rear wa rd-facing child restra int
sy stem on a seat with an ENABLED FRONT
AIRB AG. This can result in the DEAT H of or
SERIOUS INJU RYtotheCH ILD. When
fitting a child restra int sy stem tothe front
passenger seat, obser vetheve hicle-specific
information (/ page 68).
Depending on thech ild restra int sy stem and the
st ature of thech ild, thePA SSENGER AIR BAG
OFF indicator lamp may be off. In this case, do 50
