NOTES
This data includes, for example:
• Status messages of the vehicle 
and its individual components, 
for example wheel rotation 
speed, wheel speed, decelera-
tion, lateral acceleration, fas-
tened seat belt indicator.
• Ambient conditions, for example 
temperature, rain sensor signals.
The data is only processed within 
the vehicle itself and is usually tran-
sient. The data is not saved after 
the vehicle is switched off.
Electronic parts, for example con-
trol devices and vehicle keys, con-
tain components for saving 
technical information. Information 
on vehicle condition, component 
load, maintenance requirements, 
events or errors can be saved tem-
porarily or permanently.
This information generally docu-
ments the condition of a compo-
nent, a module, a system or its 
environment, for example:
• Operating states of system com-
ponents, for example, fill levels, 
tyre inflation pressure, battery 
status.
• Malfunctions and faults of impor-
tant system components, for 
example, lights and brakes.
• Responses of the vehicle to par-
ticular driving situations, for 
example triggering of an airbag, 
activation of the drive stability 
control systems.
• Information on vehicle-damag-ing events.
The data is required so that the 
control units can perform their func-
tions. It is also used for detecting 
and rectifying malfunctions, and 
helps the vehicle manufacturer to 
optimise vehicle functions.
The majority of this data is transient 
and is only processed within the 
vehicle itself. Only a small propor-
tion of the data is stored in event or 
error memories in response to spe-
cific circumstances.
When service work is being carried 
out, for example repairs, service 
operations, warranty work and 
quality assurance measures, this 
technical information can be read 
out from the vehicle together with 
the vehicle identification number.
Any authorized Toyota retailer or 
Toyota authorized repairer, or any 
reliable repairer can read out the 
information. The legally required 
on-board diagnostics (OBD) socket 
in the vehicle is used to read out 
the data.
The data is collected, processed 
and used by the relevant organisa-
tions in the service network. The 
data documents the technical con-
ditions of the vehicle and helps in 
locating errors, complying with war-
ranty obligations and improving 
quality.
Furthermore, the manufacturer has 
product monitoring obligations to 
meet in line with product liability
