R
malfunctions and defects in important system
components, e.g. lights, brakes
R vehicle reactions and operating conditions in
special driving situations, e.g. airbag deploy-
ment, intervention of stability control sys-
tems
R ambient conditions, e.g. outside temperature
These data are of an exclusively technical nature
and can be used to:
R assist in detecting and rectifying faults and
defects
R analyse vehicle functions, e.g. after an acci-
dent
R optimise vehicle functions
The data cannot be used to trace the vehicle's
movements.
When your vehicle is serviced, technical infor-
mation can be read from the event data memory
and fault data memory.
Services include, for example:
R repair services
R service processes
R warranty events
R quality assurance
The information is read out by employees of the service network (including the manufacturer)
using special diagnostic testers. You can obtain
more information there, if required.
After a fault has been rectified, the information
is deleted from the fault memory or is continu-
ally overwritten.
During vehicle operation, certain situations may arise in which these technical data – in conjunc-
tion with other information and, if applicable,
after consultation with an approved assessor –
may be linked to an individual person.
Examples include:
R accident reports
R damage to the vehicle
R witness statements
Further additional functions that have been con-
tractually agreed upon with the customer allow
certain vehicle data to be conveyed by the vehi-
cle as well. The additional functions include, for example, vehicle location in the event of an
emergency. Copyright information

ment wallet and, including updates, on the fol-
