These include, for example: Depending on the equipment in the vehicle, this includes, for example: – Vehicle status information, e.g. speed, deceler- ation, lateral acceleration, number of wheel revolutions and display of closed seat belts. – Media files for playback of music, films or pho- tos in an Infotainment system. – Ambient conditions, e.g. temperature, rain, and distance. – Address book data for use with a hands-free system or navigation system. As a rule, this data is volatile and is not stored beyond the operating time and is only processed in the vehicle itself. Control units often contain data storage devices (including vehicle keys).
These are used to document information regard- ing the vehicle status, component load levels, maintenance requirements, technical events and faults on a temporary or permanent basis. Vehicle fault information Based on user complaints, repairman will collect information reflecting complaints such as noise, service fluid leakage, warning lights, hardware defects and other information through photos, videos or recordings of varying duration to sup- port the analysis of your complaint. Depending on the technical equipment, the fol- lowing data is stored: Event Data Recorder – Operating states of system components, e.g. filling levels, tyre pressure, status of the vehi- cle battery.
This vehicle is equipped with an event data re- corder. – Faults or malfunctions in important system components, e.g. lights, brakes – System reactions to specific driving situations, e.g. triggering of an airbag, intervention of the stability control systems. The event data recorder’s main job is to record data in accidents or situations similar to an acci- dent, e.g. when an airbag is triggered or when the vehicle collides with an obstacle on the road, which then supports analysis of how a vehicle system behaved. The event data recorder is in- tended to record data relating to driving dynam- ics and the restraint system for a short period of 10 seconds or less. Such as:
– Information on events which damaged the ve- hicle. – The electric vehicle is in the state of charging the high voltage battery, and the remaining mileage is estimated. – How various systems in your vehicle have functioned. In special cases, e.g. when the vehicle has detec- ted a malfunction, it may be necessary to store data that would normally only be volatile. – Whether the driver and front passenger seat belts were fastened/secured. – The extent to which the driver pressed the brake or accelerator pedal. Information on the convenience functions and infotainment system You can store convenience settings (personalisa- tion) in the vehicle and change or reset them at any time.
– How fast the vehicle was travelling. This data helps to obtain a better understanding of the circumstances in the situations where ac- cidents and injuries have occurred. Depending on the equipment in the vehicle, this includes, for example: – Settings of the seat and steering wheel posi- tions. Data from driver assist systems is also recorded. In addition to information about whether the systems were switched on or off, available only to a restricted extent or inactive, it is also possi- ble to determine whether these functions steered, accelerated or braked the vehicle in the above-described situations. Depending on the vehicle equipment, these systems include the following:
– Running gear and air conditioning settings. – Personalised settings such as mirror adjust- ment or background lighting. Depending on the equipment installed, you may be able to store your own data in the vehicle's In- fotainment system. 182.5C1.TRO.74 Customer information 217
