Ev Event dat ent data r a recor ecorders ders
USA only US A only: :
This vehicle is equipped with an event data
recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near crash-like situa-
tions, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in understand-
ing how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR
is designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such
data as:
How various systems in your vehicle were
R
operating
Whether or not the driver and front passenger
R
seat belts were buckled/fastened
How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the
R
accelerator and/or brake pedal and
How fast the vehicle was traveling
R
This data can help provide a better understanding
of the circumstances in which accidents and inju-
ries occur. NOTE: EDR data is recorded by your
vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;
no data is recorded by the EDR under normal driv-
ing conditions and no personal data (e.g. name,
gender, age and accident location) is recorded.
However, other parties, such as law enforcement,
General notes
could combine EDR data with the type of person-
ally identifying data routinely acquired during a
crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equip-
ment is required, and access to the vehicle or the
EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manu-
facturer, other parties that have the special equip-
ment, such as law enforcement, can read the
information by accessing the vehicle or the EDR.
EDR data may be used in civil and criminal mat-
ters as a tool in accident reconstruction, accident
claims and vehicle safety. Since the Crash Data
Retrieval (CDR) tool that is used to extract data
from the EDR is commercially available,
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC ("MBUSA") expressly
disclaims any and all liability arising from the
extraction of this information by unauthorized
Mercedes-Benz personnel.
MBUSA will not share EDR data with others with-
out the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the
vehicle is leased, without the consent of the les-
see. Exceptions to this representation include
responses to subpoenas by law enforcement; by
federal, state or local government; in connection
with or arising out of litigation involving MBUSA or
