DATA RECORDING

A large number of electronic components
of your vehicle contain data storage
modules temporarily or permanently
storing technical data about the condition
of the vehicle, events and errors.

In general, this technical information
documents the condition of parts,
modules, systems or the environment:
•

Operating conditions of system
components (e.g. filling levels).

•

Status messages of the vehicle and its
individual components (e.g. number of
wheel revolutions/rotational speed,
deceleration, lateral acceleration).

•

Malfunction and defects in important
system components (e.g. lighting and
brake system).

•

Vehicle reactions in particular driving
situations (e.g. inflation of an airbag,
activation of the stability regulation
system).

•

Environmental conditions (e.g.
temperature).

These data are exclusively technical and
help identification and correction of errors
as well as optimisation of vehicle
functions. Motion profiles indicating
travelled routes cannot be created with
these data.
