Customer information327This data includes, for example:● Vehicle status information (e.g. wheel rotation rate, speed,
movement delay, lateral
acceleration, "seatbelts
fastened" display),
● Ambient conditions (e.g. temperature, rain sensor,
distance sensor).
Most of this data is volatile and is processed only in the vehicle itself,and not beyond the operating time.
Moreover, many control units include
data storage device (amongst others the vehicle key). This is used to allow
information to be documented
temporarily or permanently on vehicle
condition, component stress,
maintenance requirements and
technical events and errors.
The following information, for
example, is stored:
● System component operating states (e.g. fill level, tyre
pressure, battery status),
● State of charge of the high voltage battery, estimated range
(in the case of electric vehicles),● Faults and defects in important system components (e.g. lights,
brakes),
● System reactions in special driving situations (e.g. triggeringof an airbag, actuation of the
stability control systems),
● Information on events damaging the vehicle.
In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be
necessary to save data that would
otherwise just be volatile.
When you use services, the operating data saved can be read together withthe vehicle identification number andused if necessary. Staff working for
the service net-work (e.g. garages,
manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.
breakdown services) can read the
data from the vehicle. Services
include repair services, maintenance
processes, warranty cases and
quality assurance measures.
Data is generally read via the OBD
(On-Board Diagnostics) port
prescribed by law in the vehicle. The operating data which has been read
out documents the technical conditionof the vehicle or individual
components and assists with fault
diagnosis, compliance with warranty
obligations and quality improvement.
This data, in particular information on
component stress, technical events,
operator errors and other faults, is
transmitted to the manufacturer
where appropriate, together with the vehicle identification number. The
manufacturer is also subject to
product liability. The manufacturer
potentially also needs operating data
from vehicles for product recalls.
Fault memories in the vehicle can be
reset by a service company when
carrying out servicing or repairs.
Comfort and infotainment
functions
Comfort settings and custom settings can be stored in the vehicle and
changed at any time.
328Customer informationDepending on the equipment level in
question, these include
● Seat and steering wheel position settings,
● Chassis and air conditioning settings,
● Custom settings such as interior lighting.
You can input your own data in the
infotainment functions for your
vehicle as part of the selected
features.
Depending on the equipment level in
question, these include
● Multimedia data such as music, videos or photos for playback in
an integrated multimedia system,
● Address book data for use with an integrated hands-free system
or an integrated navigation
system,
● Input destinations,
● Data on the use of online services.
This data for comfort and
infotainment functions can be stored
locally in the vehicle or be kept on adevice that you have connected to the
vehicle ( e.g. a smartphone, USB stick
or MP3 player). Data that you have
input yourself can be deleted at any
time.
This data can only be transmitted out
of the vehicle at your request,
particularly when using online
services in accordance with the
settings selected by you.
Smartphone integration, e.g.
Android Auto or Apple CarPlay
If your vehicle is equipped
accordingly, you can connect your
smartphone or another mobile device to the vehicle so that you can control
it via the controls integrated in the
vehicle. The smartphone image and
sound can be output via the
multimedia system in this case. At the
same time, specific information is
transmitted to your smartphone.
Depending on the type of integration,
this includes data such as position
data, day / night mode and other
general vehicle information. For moreinformation, please see the operating instructions for the vehicle /
infotainment system.
Integration allows selected
smartphone apps to be used, such as
navigation or music playback. No
further integration is possible
between smartphone and vehicle, in
particular active access to vehicle
data. The nature of further data
processing is determined by the
provider of the app used. Whether
you can define settings, and if so
which ones, is dependent on the app
in question and your smartphone's
operating system.
