Condition Based Service CBS
Sensors and special algorithms take into account the driving conditions of your vehicle.
Based on this, Condition Based Service determines the maintenance requirements.
The system makes it possible to adapt the amount of maintenance you need to your user profile.
Detailed information on service requirements, refer to page 77, can be displayed on the Control Display.
Service data in the remote control
Information on the required maintenance is continuously stored in the remote control. Your service center will read out this data and suggest the right array of service procedures for your vehicle.
Therefore, hand your service specialist the remote control that you used most recently.
Storage periods
Storage periods during which the vehicle battery was disconnected are not taken into account.
If this occurs, have a service center update the time-dependent maintenance procedures, such as checking brake fluid and, if necessary, changing the engine oil and the microfilter/activated- charcoal filter.
