The concept

Personal Profile concept

You can set several of your vehicle's functions to suit your personal needs and preferences.

  • The settings are automatically saved in the profile currently activated.
  • When the vehicle is unlocked, the profile that was last detected and called up with the remote control is used.
  • Your personal settings will be recognized and called up again even if the vehicle has been used in the meantime by someone else with another remote control.

The individual settings are stored for three Personal Profiles and one guest profile.
