Car-to-X-Communication
Car-to-X-Communication overview
Traffic
and Delay
The following requirements apply for using Car-
to-X-Communication:
The vehicle is equipped with a multimedia
R
system featuring navigation and a communi‐
cation module with an activated, integrated
SIM card.
Car-to-X-Communication is activated.
R
% Car-to-X-Communication is available in
selected countries.
The communication module automatically estab‐
lishes an Internet connection once the ignition is
switched on. If there are any hazard warnings,
¡ Traffic
they will be provided shortly thereafter. Depend‐
5
ing on the mobile phone connection, the provi‐
sion takes place from within a second up to
about a minute.
Benefits of Car-to-X-Communication:
Hazards are recognised automatically in the
R
background by the vehicle or may be repor‐
ted by the driver. These are then sent to vehi‐
cles with Car-to-X-Communication in the
immediate vicinity.
If available, current details relating to hazard
R
spots near the vehicle's current position are
received.
This gives you sufficient time to adapt your
driving style to the traffic conditions.
The use of Car-to-X-Communication requires the
regular transmission of vehicle data to Daimler
AG. The data is then immediately pseudony‐
mised by Daimler AG. The vehicle data is deleted
after an appropriate amount of time has elapsed
(several weeks) and is not stored permanently.
% Data which serves as identification is
replaced during the pseudonymisation proc‐
ess. In this way, your identity is protected
against access by unauthorised third parties.
