Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Vehicle registration
Mercedes-Benz may ask its Service Centres to
carry out technical inspections on certain vehi-
cles. The quality or safety of the vehicle is
improved as a result of the inspection.
Mercedes-Benz can inform you about vehicle
inspections only if it has your registration data.
It is possible that your vehicle has not yet been
registered in your name in the following cases:
if your vehicle was not purchased at an
R
authorised specialist dealer.
if your vehicle has not yet been inspected at a
R
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
It is advisable to register your vehicle with a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Inform Mercedes-Benz as soon as possible
about any change in address or vehicle owner-
ship. You can do this at a Mercedes-Benz Ser-
vice Centre, for example.
Correct use
If you remove any warning stickers, you or oth-
ers could fail to recognise certain dangers.
Leave warning stickers in position.

Data stored in the vehicle
QR code for rescue card
The QR code is secured in the fuel filler flap and
on the opposite side on the B-pillar. In the event
of an accident, rescue services can use the QR
code to quickly find the appropriate rescue card
for your vehicle. The current rescue card con-
tains, in a compact form, the most important
information about your vehicle, e.g. the routing
of the electric cables.
You can find more information under
www.mercedes-benz.de/qr-code.
Data stored in the vehicle
Many of the electronic components in your vehi-
cle can store data.
These data memories temporarily or perma-
nently store technical information about:
the vehicle's operating state
R
events
R
faults
R
In general, this technical information docu-
ments the state of a component, a module, a
system or the surroundings.
These include, for example:
operating conditions of system components –
R
for example, fluid levels
status messages concerning the vehicle and
R
its individual components – for example,
wheel rotational speed, vehicle speed, decel-
eration in movement, lateral acceleration,
accelerator pedal position
malfunctions and defects in important system
R
components, for example, lights, brakes
vehicle reactions and operating conditions in
R
special driving situations – for example, air-
bag deployment, intervention of stability con-
trol systems
ambient conditions – for example, outside
R
temperature
These data are of an exclusively technical nature
and can be used to:
assist in detecting and rectifying faults and
R
defects
analyse vehicle functions, e.g. after an acci-
R
dent
optimise vehicle functions
