long dry grass or other combustible
material, particul arly during dry

sufficient to start a fire.

Introduction

DATA RECORDING
Service data recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle are
capable of collecting and storing diagnostic
information about your vehicle. This potentially
includes information about the performance or
status of various syst ems and modules in the
vehicle such as engine, throttle, steering or
brakes.
In order to properly di agnose and service your
vehicle, Jaguar service and repair facilities may
access vehicle diagnos tic information through
a direct connection to your vehicle.
Event data recording
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data
Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR
is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an air bag deployment or
hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The EDR is de signed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems
for a short period of ti me, typically 30 seconds
or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were
operating.
• Whether or not the driver and passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened.
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing
the accelerator and/or the brake pedal.
• How fast the vehicle was travelling.
• The rotational position of the steering
wheel.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the ci rcumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. Note:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a non-trivial cr ash situation occurs; no
data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g.
name, gender, age and crash location) are
recorded. However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR data with
the type of personally id entifying data routinely
acquired during a cr ash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the
vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special
equipment, can read the information if they
have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
DISABILITY MODIFICATIONS
Occupants with disabili ties which may require
modification of the ve hicle, must contact a
Dealer/Authorised Re pairer before any
modifications are made.
