ment, systems, and functions that are currently

Service data in the vehicle key
Additional information:
Information on the service notifications is con-
tinuously stored in the vehicle key. An author-
ized service center can read this data out and

Maintenance system
Therefore, hand the service advisor the vehicle
key with which the vehicle was driven most
recently.
Principle
The maintenance system provides service no-
tifications and thereby provides support in
maintaining road safety and the operational
reliability of the vehicle.
Stationary periods
Stationary periods during which the vehicle
battery was disconnected are taken into ac-
count.
General information
Some maintenance measures are time-de-
pendent, e.g., replacing operating fluids. Have
this maintenance work updated by an author-
ized service center or another qualified service
center or repair shop.
In some cases, scopes and intervals of the
maintenance system may vary according to
the country version. Replacement work, spare
parts, fuels and lubricants, and wear materials
are calculated separately. Further information
is available from an authorized service center
or another qualified service center or repair
shop.

Condition Based Service
Principle
The manufacturer of the vehicle recommends
that maintenance and repair be performed by
an authorized service center or another quali-
fied service center or repair shop. Records of
regular maintenance and repair work should
be retained.
Condition Based Service determines the main-
tenance recommendation using sensors and
special algorithms that take into account the
operating conditions of the vehicle.
The maintenance recommendation is deter-
mined according to the individual usage profile
of the vehicle.
