Protection of the environment
General notes
Environmental note
H
Daimler's declared policy is one of comprehensive environmental protection.
Our objectives are to use the natural
resources which form the basis of our existence on this planet sparingly and in a
manner which takes the requirements of
both nature and humanity into consideration.
You too can help to protect the environment by operating your vehicle in an environmentally-responsible manner.
Energy consumption and the rate of
engine, transmission, brake and tire wear
depend on the following factors:
R
operating conditions of your vehicle
R
your personal driving style
You can influence both factors. Therefore,
please bear the following in mind:
Operating conditions:
R
observe the correct tire pressure.
R
avoid carrying unnecessary weight.
R
remove the roof rack once you no longer
need it.
R
a regularly serviced vehicle will contribute to environmental protection. You
should therefore adhere to the service
intervals.
R
all maintenance work should be carried
out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
R
drive carefully and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front.
R
avoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
braking.
R
monitor the vehicle's energy consumption.
High-voltage battery
Environmental note
H
Have a defective high-voltage battery disposed of in an environmentally-responsible manner. Contact a specialist workshop
that is qualified to work on smart electric
drive vehicles and has the necessary specialist knowledge and tools to carry out the
work required. smart recommends that you
use a smart Center for this purpose.
Environmental concerns and recommendations
Wherever the Operator's Manual requires
you to dispose of materials, first try to regenerate or re-use them. Observe the relevant
environmental rules and regulations when
disposing of materials. In this way you will
help to protect the environment.
smart genuine parts
Environmental note
H
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned
major assemblies and parts which are of
the same quality as new parts. They are
covered by the same Limited Warranty
entitlements as new parts.

operating efficiency of the restraint systems.
Have aftermarket accessories installed at
a qualified specialist workshop.
Only smart genuine parts or parts of the same
quality may be used. In addition, only
approved wheels, tires and accessories for
the particular type of vehicle may be used.
Always specify the vehicle identification
number (VIN) when ordering smart genuine
parts.
Using parts, tires, wheels or safety-relevant
equipment not approved by smart could
jeopardize the operational safety of the vehicle. Safety-relevant systems, such as the
brake system, may malfunction.
Genuine smart parts are subject to strict
quality control. Each part has been specially
developed, manufactured or selected for
smart vehicles and fine-tuned for them.
Therefore, only genuine smart parts should
be used.
More than 300,000 different genuine smart
parts are available for smart models.
All smart centers maintain a supply of genuine smart parts for necessary service and
repair work. In addition, strategically located parts delivery centers provide quick and
reliable parts service.
Warranty for the smart Audio-System
and smart Media-System
The smart sales organization provides a warranty for a period of 24 months without a
kilometer limit for the smart Audio-System
and the smart Media-System.
The warranty issuer is the respective sales
organization in the country in which the
accessory or replacement part was purchased (see list in the Maintenance Booklet).
Vehicle equipment
This Operator's Manual describes all models
and all standard and optional equipment
available for the vehicle at the time of publication of this Operator's Manual. Countryspecific differences are possible. Please note
that the vehicle equipment may differ from
certain descriptions and illustrations provided in this manual. This also applies to

Data stored in the vehicle
Information from electronic control
units
Your vehicle is equipped with electronic
control units. Some of them are necessary for
your vehicle to function safely, some provide
support when driving (driver assistance
systems). In addition, your vehicle offers
comfort or entertainment functions which
are also made possible with electronic control units.
Electronic control units contain data memories which can permanently or temporarily
store technical information on vehicle condition, component stress, service requirements as well as technical incidents and
malfunctions.
>> Introduction.
25
This information generally documents the
condition of a component, a module, a system
or the surroundings, for example:
R
operating states of system components
(e.g. fluid levels, battery status, tire pressure)
R
status messages of the vehicle or its individual components (e.g. wheel revolutions/speed, deceleration in movement,
lateral acceleration, display of seat belts
fastened)
R
malfunctions and defects in key system
components (e.g. the lights and brakes)
R
information on incidents in which the
vehicle is damaged
R
reactions of the systems in specific driving situations (e.g. deployment of an air
bag, use of stability control systems)
R
ambient conditions (e. g. temperature, rain
sensor)
In addition to the provision of control unit
functions, this data serves to detect and rectify malfunctions as well as to optimize vehicle functions by the manufacturer. Most of
this data is volatile and is only processed in
the vehicle itself. Only a small proportion of
the data is stored in event or error memories.
When service work is done on your vehicle,
the technical data from the vehicle can be
read out by service network staff or third
parties. Service work is, for example, repair
work, maintenance, warranty claims and
quality assurance measures. The data is read
out using the legally prescribed OBD (European On-board Diagnostics) connector in the
vehicle. The respective workshop of service
network or third parties collect, process and
use the data. The data documents technical
states of the vehicle, help in finding errors
and in improving quality and are transferred
to the manufacturer if necessary. In addition,
the manufacturer is subject to product liability. For this purpose, the manufacturer
requires technical data from vehicles.
Malfunction memories in the
vehicle can be
reset by a service outlet during repairs or
service work.
Depending on the equipm
ent selected, you
can enter data in comfort and infotainment
functions of the vehicle.
This includes, for example:
R
multimedia data, such as music, films or
photos for playback in an integrated multimedia system
R
address book data for use in an integrated
hands-free system or an integrated navigation system
R
navigation destinations entered
R
data on the use of Internet services
This data can be saved locally in the vehicle
or it is located on a device which you have
connected to the vehicle. As long as this data
is saved in the vehicle, you can delete it at
any time. Transfer of this data to third parties only occurs at your request, especially
as part of online services according to the
settings you have selected.
You can save comfort settings/individualization in the vehicle and change them at any
time.
Depending on the equipment, these include,
for example:
R
settings of the seat and steering wheel
positions
R
chassis and climate control settings
R
individualization such as interior lighting
As long as your vehicle is suitably equipped,
you can connect your mobile phone or
another mobile end device with the vehicle.
You can operate these devices via the control
elements integrated in the vehicle. Images
and sound from the mobile phone can played
back via the multimedia system. At the same
time, certain information is transferred to
your mobile phone.
This includes, depending on the type of integration, for example:
R
general vehicle information
R
position data
This allows the use of selected mobile phone
apps, e.g. navigation or music playback.
There is no further interaction between
mobile phone and vehicle; in particular there
is no active access to vehicle
data. How data
is further processed is determined by the
provider of the specific app used. Which settings you can make, if any, depends on the
specific app and the operating system of
your mobile phone.
