It is possible to create user accounts for different vehicle users in your vehicle. This allows personalised vehicle settings, e.g. for the
air conditioning system, to be saved in a user account.
User selection after switching on the ignition
If user accounts have been created in the vehicle, a welcome menu opens when the ignition is switched on. The vehicle user can select
a user account in this welcome menu. If the selected user account has been protected with an S-PIN, the S-PIN must be entered.
If you activate the Save S-PIN option, you will no longer be asked to enter your S-PIN for user account selection. However, remember
that third parties can then access your personal data.
The settings stored in the user profile will be loaded in the vehicle as soon as a user has been selected.
Automatic assignment of a user account to the vehicle key
Once a user account has been created successfully in the vehicle, the vehicle settings are automatically assigned to the vehicle key
active in the vehicle. When the vehicle is opened with a vehicle key to which a user account has been assigned, the user account
assigned to the vehicle key is offered for selection in the welcome menu. If the user account is changed, the vehicle settings of the
selected user account are assigned to the active vehicle key.

Description of user roles
The following user roles are available in the vehicle:
Primary user
—The “primary user” role is intended for the vehicle keeper or for users who do not just have temporary authorisation to use the
vehicle, such as a lessee or company car driver. The primary user has unrestricted rights and can assign additional rights to other
users of the vehicle by inviting them as secondary users. If a new primary user legitimises themselves for the vehicle, the previous
primary user will automatically lose their primary user role.
Secondary user
—The “Secondary user” user role is intended for users who also use the vehicle regularly. Secondary users derive their role from the
primary user and must be invited for the vehicle by the primary user. The primary user can withdraw the permissions to use the
online services from a secondary user at any time. The procedure for inviting secondary users is described in this owner’s manual
(→ Manage users).
Guest users
—The “Guest user” user role is intended for users who use a vehicle occasionally or only once. A guest user can log in themselves in
every vehicle with service capability. Involvement of the primary user is not necessary. The guest user has only restricted access to
certain services.
Guest
—The “Guest” user account is a non person-specific account that exists locally in the vehicle and cannot be synchronised with the
server. The “Guest” user account is intended for anonymous users. These are persons who have access to the vehicle but do not log
in. This user account exists only once in vehicles with online personalisation and cannot be deleted. If the “Guest” user account is
activated in the vehicle, e.g. by deleting a currently selected user account, all users who are logged in on the vehicle are temporarily
logged out. The current vehicle settings are saved in the “Guest” user account and are kept until a person-specific user account is
selected again.
