storage Electronic control units
Electronic control units are ins
talled in your vehi‐
cle. Some of these are necessary forth e safe
operation of your vehicle, while some assist you
when driving (driver assis tance sy stems). In addi‐
tion, your vehicle pr ovides com fort and enter tain‐
ment functions, which are also made possible by
electronic cont rol units.
The elect ronic control units contain da tamemo‐
ri es which can temp orarily or permanently store
te ch nical information about theve hicle's operat‐
ing state, component loads, main tenance requ ire‐
ments and tech nical events or malfunctions.
In general, this information documents thest ate
of a component part, a module, a sy stem or the
sur roundings such as:
R operating states of sy stem components (e.g.
fl uid le vels, battery status, tire pressure)
R status messages concerning theve hicle and
its individual components (e.g. number of
wheel revo lutions/speed, deceleration, lateral
acceleration, display of thefast ened seat
belts)
R malfunctions or defects in impor tant sy stem
components (e.g. lights, brakes)
R information on events leading tovehicle dam‐
age
R system reactions in special driving situations
(e.g. airbag deployment, inter vention of sta‐
bility control sy stems)
R ambient conditions (e.g. temp erature, rain
sensor)
In addition toprov iding the actual cont rol 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 theve hicle
itself. Only a small portion of the data is stored in
th eeve nt or malfunction memo ry.
When your vehicle is serviced, tech nical da ta
from theve hicle can be read out byservice net‐
wo rkemplo yees (e.g. workshops, manufacturers)
or third parties (e.g. breakdown services). Serv‐ ices include
repair services, maintenance pro‐
cesses, warranty claims and quality assurance
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 par‐
ties collect, process and use this data. They
document tech nical statuses of theve hicle,
assist in finding malfunctions and impr oving qual‐
ity and are transmitted tothe manufacturer, if
necessar y.Fu rthermore, the manufacturer is sub‐
ject toproduct liability. Forth is, the manufacturer
re qu ires tech nical da tafrom vehicles.
Malfunction memories in theve hicle can be reset
by a service outlet as part of repair or mainte‐
nance work.
Depending on the selected equipment, you can
import data into vehicle con venience and info‐
ta inment functions yourself.
This includes, forex ample:
R multimedia data such as music, films or pho‐

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

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. smartphone, USB flash drive
or MP3 pla yer). If this data is stored in theve hi‐
cle, you can dele teit at any time. This data is

If yo ur vehicle has a wireless network connection,
data can be exchanged between your vehicle and
ot her sy stems. The wireless network connection
is enabled via theve hicle's transmission and
re ception unit or via connected mobile end devi‐
ces (e.g. sma rtphones). Online functions can be
used via this wireless network connection. These
include online services and applications/apps,
which are pr ovided bythe manufacturer or by
ot her pr oviders.
Manu factu rer's own services
In the case of the manufacturer's online services,
th e manufacturer describes the functions in a
suitable place (e.g. operating instructions, manu‐
fa cturer's website) and pr ovides the associated
information subject todata pr otection legislation.
Pe rsonal identification data may be used topro‐
vide online services. The data exchange forth is
ta ke s place via a secure connection, e.g. with the
manufacturer's IT sy stems intended forth e pur‐
pose. The collecting, processing, and use of per‐
sonal identification data be yond the pr ovision of
services occurs exclusively on the basis of a legal
permit or af ter due consent.
Generally, you can activate or deactivate the
services and functions (partly subject toafe e). In
some cases, this also applies tothe whole data
connection of theve hicle. Excluded from this are
special legally prescribed functions and services.
Services of third parties
If it is possible touse online services from other
pr ov iders, these services are subject tothe data
pr otection and term s of use of there sponsible pr

Please ask there spective service pr ovider for
de tails on the type, extent and pu rpose of the
collection and use of personal da tainthe cont ext

Recorders USA onl
y:
This vehicle is equipped with an event da ta
re corder (EDR). The main pu rpose of an EDR is to
re cord, in cer tain crash or near crash-like situa‐
tions, su chas an air bag deployment or hitting a
ro ad obs tacle, da tathat will assist in unde rsta nd‐
ing how a vehicle's sy stems per form ed. The EDR
is designed torecord da tarelated tovehicle
dynamics and saf ety sy stems for a short period
of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed torecord such
da ta as:
R How various sy stems in your vehicle were
operating;
R Whe ther or not the driver and passenger
saf ety belts werebuckled/fas tened;
R How far (if at all) the driver was depressing
th e accelera tor and/or brake pedal; and,
R How fasttheve hicle was tr ave ling.
This data can help pr ovide a better under standing
of the circums tances in whi chcrashes and inju‐
ri es occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your
ve hicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;
no data are recorded bythe EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g.
name, gende r,age and crash location) are recor‐
ded. Ho wever,ot her parties such as law enforce‐
ment could combine the EDR data with the type
of personally identifying data routinely acquired
during a crash in vestigation.
Ac cess totheve hicle and/or the EDR is needed
to read data that is recorded byan EDR, and spe‐
cial equipment is requ ired. In addition totheve hi‐
cle manufacturer, other parties that ha vethe spe‐
cial equipment, such as law enforcement, can
re ad the information byaccessing theve hicle or
th e EDR.
EDR data may be used in civil and criminal mat‐
te rs as a tool in accident reconstruction, accident
claims and vehicle saf ety. Since the Crash Data

WARNING Risk of accident despite
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist does not recognize
th efo llowing road users:
R Road users without lights, e.g. pedes‐
trians
R Road users with poor lighting, e.g. cyclists
R Road users whose lighting is obstructed,
e.g. bya bar rier
On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam
Assist may failto recognize other road users
with their own lighting, or may recognize
th em too late.
In these or similar situations, the automatic
high beam is not deactivated or is activated
despite the presence of other road users. #
Always obser vethe tra ffic carefully and
switch off the high beam in good time. The
Adaptive Highbeam Assist automatically
swit ches between thefo llowing settings:
R Low beam
R High beam
The sy stem de tects that vehicle lights are
approaching in the opposite direction or driving
ahead of theve hicle.
At speeds greater than 19 mp h (30 km/h), a
ch ange is made tothefo llowing setting:
R If no other road users are de tected, the high
beam switches on automaticall y.At
speeds less than 16 mp h (25 km/h) or if there
is suf ficient road lighting, a change is made to
th efo llowing setting:
R The high beam automatically switches off.
Sy stem limitations
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist cannot take thero ad,
we ather or traf fic conditions into consideration.
The de tection of obs tacles can be restricted if:
R Visibility is impaired, e.g. in fog, heavy rain or
snow
R The sensors are dirty or co vered
Ad aptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid. You are
re sponsible for ensuring cor rect vehicle lighting
in accordance with the pr evailing light, visibility
and traf fic conditions.
The sy stem's optical sensor is located behind the
