Description and operation Your vehicle is fitted at the factory with a ser-

the engine and gearbox management. In ad-

airbag systems.
Therefore, while the vehicle is being driven,

faults or deviations from the theoretical val-
ues, only this data is stored. Normally, the
warning lamps on the instrument panel light

The storing of the data allows specialised
workshops to detect and repair faults. Stored
data may include:
