Data recording
As part of Volvo's commitment to safety and quality, certain information is recorded regardingvehicle operation, functionality and incidents.
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR isto record, in certain crash or near crash-like sit-uations, such as an airbag deployment or hittinga road obstacle, data that will assist in under-standing how a vehicle's systems performed. TheEDR is designed to record data related to vehicledynamics and safety systems for a short period oftime, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR inthis vehicle is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle wereoperating;
• Whether or not the driver and passengersafety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressingthe accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understand-ing of the circumstances in which crashes andinjuries occur. EDR data is only recorded by the vehicle if a more serious collision situation occurs. No data isrecorded by the EDR under normal driving condi-tions and the EDR never registers who is drivingthe vehicle or the location of a crash or a nearcrash-like situation. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR datawith the type of personally identifying data rou-tinely acquired during a crash investigation. Toread data recorded by an EDR, special equipmentis required, and access to the vehicle or the EDRis needed. Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with a number of computers whose task is to continu-ously control and monitor the vehicle's operation.They can also register some of this informationduring normal driving conditions, most importantlyif they detect a fault relating to the vehicle'soperation and functionality or upon activation ofthe vehicle's active safety systems (e.g. CitySafety and the auto-brake function). Some of theregistered information is required by technicianswhen carrying out service and maintenance toenable them to diagnose and rectify any faultsthat have occurred in the vehicle and to enableVolvo to fulfill legal and other regulatory require-ments. Information thus registered in the vehicleis registered in the vehicle's computers until thevehicle is serviced or repaired. In addition to theabove, the registered information may - on anaggregated basis - be used for research andproduct development purposes in order to contin-uously improve the safety and quality of Volvovehicles. For additional information, please contact Volvo.
