underbody, chassis components, wheels or
tyres could be damaged without the damage
being visible. Components damaged in this
wa y can unexpec tedly fail or, in the case of
an accident, no longer withs tand thest ra in

hicle data storage Information from electronic control units
Electronic control units are
fitted in your vehicle.
Some of these are necessary forth e safe opera‐
tion of your vehicle, while some assist you when
driving (driver assis tance sy stems). In addition,
yo ur vehicle pr ovides con venience and enter tain‐
ment functions, which are also made possible by
electronic control units.
Elect ronic control units contain da tamemories
which cantemp orarily or permanently store
te ch nical information about theve hicle's operat‐
ing status, component loads, main tenance
re qu irements and tech nical events or faults. In
general, this information documents thest ate
of a component part, a module, a sy stem or the
sur roundings such as:
R operating statuses of sy stem components
(e.g. fluid le vels, battery status, tyre pres‐
sure)
R status messages concerning theve hicle and
its individual components (e.g. number of
wheel revo lutions/speed, decele ration, lat‐
eral acceleration, display of thefa stened seat
belts)
R malfunctions or defects in impor tant sy stem
components (e.g. lights, brakes)
R information on vehicle damage events
R system reactions in special driving situations
(e.g. airbag deployment, inter vention of sta‐
bility control sy stems)
R ambient conditions (e.g. temp erature, rain
sensor)
In addition toprov iding the actual control unit
function, this data assists the manufacturer in
de tecting and rectifying faults and optimising
ve hicle functions. The majority of this data is te
mp orary and is only processed in theve hicle
itself. Only a small portion of the data is stored
in theeve nt or fault memor y.
When your vehicle is serviced, tech nical da ta
from theve hicle can be read out byservice net‐
wo rkemplo yees or third parties. Services
include repair services, maintenance processes,
wa rranty events and quality assurance meas‐
ures, forex ample. The read out is per form ed via
th e legally prescribed port for OBD ("on-board
diagnostics") in theve hicle. The respective
service network locations or third parties col‐
lect, process and use the data. They document
te ch nical statuses of theve hicle, assist in find‐
ing faults and impr oving quality and are trans‐
mit tedto the manufacturer, if necessar y.Fu r‐
th ermore, the manufacturer is subject toprod‐
uct liability. Forth is, the manufacturer requ ires
te ch nical da tafrom vehicles.
Fa ult memories in theve hicle can be reset by a
service outlet as part of repair or maintenance
wo rk.
They can enter data into theve hicle's con veni‐
ence and inf otainment functions themselves as
part of the selected equipment. 28

R address book data for use in connection with
an integrated hands-free sy stem or an inte‐
grated navigation sy stem
R entered navigation destinations
R data about the use of Internet services
This data can be stored locally in theve hicle or
is located on a device which you ha veconnected
to theve hicle. If this data is stored in theve hi‐
cle, you can dele teit at any time. This data can
only be transmitted tothird parties upon your
requ est with particular rega rd tothe scope of
use of online services according to your selected
settings.
Yo u can store or change con venience settings/
individualisations in theve hicle at any time.

output via the multimedia sy stem. Cer tain infor‐
mation is simultaneously transmitted to your
smartphone.
Depending on there spective integration type,
th is includes, forex ample:
R general vehicle information
R position data
This enables the use of selected smartphone
Apps, e.g. navigation or music playbac k.There is
no fur ther interaction between the smartphone

directly accessible. The type of fur ther data pro‐
cessing is de term ined bythe pr ovider of the App

If yo ur vehicle has a wireless network connec‐
tion, it enables data tobe exc hanged between
yo ur vehicle and additional sy stems. The wire‐
less network connection is enabled via theve hi‐
cle's transmission and reception unit or via con‐
nected mobile end devices (e.g. sma rtphones).
Online functions can be used via the wireless
