Crash event data
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDRis to record, in certain crash or near crash-likesituations, such as an air bag deployment orhitting a road obstacle, data that will assist inunderstanding how a vehicle's systems per-formed. The EDR is designed to record datarelated to vehicle dynamics and safety sys-tems for a short period of time, typically 30seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle isdesigned to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passengersafety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depress-ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal;and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under- standing of the circumstances in whichcrashes and injuries occur.NOTE
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;no data are recorded by the EDR undernormal driving conditions and no personaldata (e.g., name, gender, age, and crashlocation) are recorded. However, otherparties, such as law enforcement, couldcombine the EDR data with the type ofpersonally identifying data routinelyacquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to thevehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition tothe vehicle manufacturer, other parties, suchas law enforcement, that have the specialequipment, can read the information if theyhave access to the vehicle or the EDR. Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with a number of computers whose task is to con-tinuously control and monitor the vehicle’soperation. They can also register informationduring normal driving conditions if they detecta fault relating to the vehicle’s operation andfunctionality. Some of the stored informationis required by technicians when carrying outservice and maintenance to enable them todiagnose and rectify any faults that haveoccurred in the vehicle and to enable Volvo tofulfill legal and other regulatory requirements.This information may be stored in the vehi-cle’s computers for a certain period of time.
