Abstract: A method for guiding a motor vehicle includes: guiding, in a first operating mode, the motor vehicle in an automated manner by a driver assistance system; subsequently guiding, in a second operating mode, the motor vehicle in a nonautomated fashion by a driver; and transitioning from the first operating mode to the second operating mode by adjusting, by a pedal actuator, a gas pedal of the motor vehicle such that at a beginning of the second operating mode, the gas pedal assumes a transfer pedal position that corresponds to the vehicle movement of the motor vehicle at the end of the first operating mode.

Abstract: An arrangement for controlling highly automated driving of a vehicle includes: a vehicle guiding device autonomously guiding the vehicle, an evaluation device evaluating a condition of a driver of the vehicle, and a control device controlling activation and deactivation of the vehicle guiding device. The control device activates or deactivates the vehicle guiding device on the basis of the remaining autonomous driving time during which the vehicle can be autonomously controlled by the vehicle guiding device and the reaction time of the driver.

Abstract: A cockpit for installation in a motor vehicle between two A-pillars includes a printed board having electronic components connected to a crossmember via a pipe. The pipe is filled with a heat-absorbing fluid and conducts away heat generated by the electronic components to the crossmember.

Abstract: A vehicle information system having a mode of operation for vehicle navigation and a mode of operation for telecommunication is presented. The system includes a database and a control and regulation unit that includes a processor configured for storing and executing control commands. The system further includes a display device connected to the control and regulation unit, an input apparatus connected to the control and regulation unit, and a data store which can store data records, image files, and control commands which can be stipulated for the data records.

Abstract: Plug connections used to connect at least two modules of a motor vehicle cockpit to a main cable harness each comprise a first plug element and a second plug element which is designed as a suitable mating piece for the first plug element. Each of the first plug elements is electrically connected to the main cable harness and each of the second plug elements is electrically connected to a module cable harness which is part of one of the at least two modules. In order to simplify mounting of the modules, the plug connections are of identical design and are formed in a self-finding manner. The first plug element is in each case mechanically connected to the body of the motor vehicle and is arranged in an end region of the body, and the second plug element is mechanically fixed to an outer face, which is directed toward the end region of the body, of the respective module.

Abstract: A cable harness for connecting electrical components in a cockpit of a motor vehicle to an on-board motor-vehicle electrical system has a cockpit cable harness with a single main connection point to the on-board vehicle electrical system. The electrical components belong to a respective one of at least two modules, and the cockpit cable harness has a module connection point to each of the at least two modules. The electrical components are connected to the module connection point by a module cable harness.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement of groups of electronic components in the cockpit of a motor vehicle having a first group of electronic components for controlling a first vehicle function mounted on a first printed circuit board (9). According to the invention the printed circuit board (9) is fixed directly onto a support and/or a front panel (1) of the cockpit.

Abstract: A vehicle (1) having a sound-radiating element (10) for emitting sound waves into a passenger compartment (2) and having an air duct (6) for the air conditioning of the passenger compartment (2), the air duct (6) having an air duct inner wall (7) facing the passenger compartment (2). To reduce the installation space for the sound-radiating element and to simplify the assembly, the sound-radiating element (10) has the air duct inner wall (7) and an oscillation exciter (9) arranged on the air duct inner wall (7), for exciting oscillation of the air duct inner wall (7).

Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle (1) having a loudspeaker (9) for emitting sound waves (10, 11) into a passenger compartment (2) and having an air duct (7) for the air conditioning of the passenger compartment (2), the air duct (7) having an air duct opening (6) which faces the passenger compartment (2). In order to reduce the installation space for the loudspeaker (9), the invention proposes that the loudspeaker (9) is arranged in the air duct (7) in such a manner that the sound waves (10, 11) can be emitted through the air duct opening (6) into the passenger compartment (2).
