sonal data
Every vehicle is identi/ed bya unique vehicle
identi/cation number. Depending on the countr y,
th is vehicle identi/cation number can be used by,
fo re xamp le, go vernmental authorities todeter-
mine the identity of theow ner. There are other
possibilities touse data collected from theve hicle
to identify theow ner or driver, suc hasth e licence
plate number.
Therefore, data generated or processed bycont rol
units may be attributable toa person or, under
cer tain conditions, become attributable toa per-
son. Depending on which vehicle data are availa-
ble, it may be possible tomake inferences about,
fo re xamp le,your driving behaviour, your location,
yo ur route or your use patterns.

Fo rexamp le,this may be the case during the
in ve sti gation of a criminal o.ence. Go
vernmental entities are themsel ves, in individ-
ual cases and within the applicable legal frame-
wo rk, authorised toread out data from theve hi-
cle. In the case of an accident, information that
can help with an in vesti gation can, therefore, be

This is data rega rding the operation of theve hicle,
which ha vebeen processed bycont rol units.
This includes thefo llowing data, fore xa mpl e:
R vehicle status information suc hasth e speed,
longitudinal acceleration, lateral acceleration,
number of wheel revo lutions or thefa stened
seat belts display
R ambient conditions, su chas temp erature, rain
sensor or distance sensor
Generall y,the use of these data is temp orar y;
th ey will not be stored be yond the period of oper-
ation and will only be processed within theve hicle
itself. Control units oTen contain data memories
fo rve hicle keys,fo re xamp le. Their use permits the
te mp orary or permanent documentation of tech ni-
cal information about theve hicle's operating state, component loads, main
tenance requ ire-
ments and tech nical events or faults.
Depending on theve hicle equipment, thefo llo w-
ing data are stored:
R operating status of system components,
suchas /ll le vels, tyre pressure or battery sta-
tus
R malfunctions or faults in impor tant system
components, suc has lights or brakes
R system reactions in special driving situations,
suchas airbag depl oyment or the inter vention
of stability cont rol systems
R information on events leading tovehicle dam-
age
In cer tain cases, it may be requ ired tostore da ta
th at wo uld ha veotherwise been used only temp o-
rari ly. This may be the case if theve hicle has
de tected a malfunction, fore xamp le.
If yo u use services, suc hasre pair services and

and manu
facturers or third parties, suc has break-
down services. The same is true in the case of
wa rranty claims and quality assurance measures.
In general, there adout is per form ed via the legally
prescribed port forth e diagnostics connection in
th eve hicle. The operational data that are read out
document tech nical states of theve hicle or of
individual components and assist in the diagnosis
of malfunctions, compliance with warranty obli ga-
tions and quality impr ovement. Tothat end, these
data, in particular information about component
loads, tech nical events, malfunctions and other
fa ults may be transmitted along with theve hicle
identi/cation number tothe manufacturer. Fur-
th ermore, the manufacturer is subject toproduct
liability. Forth is reason the manufacturer also
uses operational data from theve hicle, fore xa m-
ple, forre calls. These data can also be used to
ex amine the customer's warranty and guarantee
claims.
Fa ult memories in theve hicle can be reset by a
service outl etor at your requ est as part of repair
or maintenance work. Conv

em in an accident How
there straint system works depends on the
se verity of the impact de tected and the apparent
type of accident:
R Frontal impact
R Rear impact
R Side impact
R Rollover
The activation thre sholds forth e components of
th ere straint system are de term ined based on the
ev aluation of the sensor values measured at vari-
ous points in theve hicle. This process is pre-e mp-
tive in nature. The triggering/deployment of the
components of there straint system must take
place in good time at the start of the collision.
Fa ctors which can only be seen and measured
aTer a collision has occur red cannot play a deci-
sive role in airbag deployment. Nor do they pro-
vide an indication of airbag deployment.
The vehicle may be deformed signi/cantly without
an airbag being depl oyed. This is the case if only
parts which are relatively easily deformed are

A person in
the front passenger seat could

ve hicle interior, especially if the person is sit-
ting too close tothe cockpit.
If th e front passenger seat is occupied, alw ays
ensure that:
R the classi/cation of the person in the front
passenger seat is cor rect and the front
passenger airbag is enabled or disabled in
accordance with the person in the front
passenger seat.
R the front passenger seat has been mo ved
as far back as possible.
R the person is seated cor rectl y. #
Both before and during the journe y,
