medical aids such as cardiac pacemakers.
In addition, there are components ins talled in

on a par with permanent magnets. These fields
can be found, forex ample, in the area around

use permits thete mp orary or permanent docu‐
mentation of tech nical information about the

main tenance requirements and tech nical events
or faults.
Depending on theve hicle equipment, thefo llow‐

R operating status of sy stem components,
such as fill le vels, tyre pressure or battery

R malfunctions or faults in impor tant sy stem
components, such as lights or brakes
R system reactions in special driving situations,
such as airbag deployment or the inter ven‐

re ad out and used. They can be read out by
service network emplo yees, such as workshops
and manufacturers or third parties, such as
breakdown services. The same is true in the
case of warranty claims and quality assurance
measures.
In general, there adout is per form ed via the
legally prescribed port forth e diagnostics con‐
nection in theve hicle. The operational data that
are read out document tech nical states of the
ve hicle or of individual components and assist in
th e diagnosis of malfunctions, compliance with
wa rranty obligations and quality impr ovement.
To that end, these data, in particular information
about component loads, tech nical events, mal‐
functions and other faults may be transmit ted
along with theve hicle identification number to
th e manufacturer. Furthermore, the manufac‐
turer is subject toproduct liability. Forth is rea‐
son the manufacturer also uses operational data
from theve hicle, forex ample, forre calls. These da
