The digital tachograph DTCO 4.0 is a re-
cording device to monitor and register
speed, kilometres driven and driving
times and rest periods.
This document describes the operation
of the digital tachograph DTCO 4.0.
The data prepared by this tachograph
supports you in your daily tasks:
• It helps you, the driver, among other
things, to comply with the social legis-
lation relating to road transport.
• It helps you, the contractor, to keep
an eye on the driver and vehicle us-
age (by means of suitable evaluation
programmes).
In the case of the ADR version of the
DTCO 4.0, this must only be operated in
accordance with the requirements of
ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU.
IMPORTANT
The DTCO 4.0 can be used for a max-
imum of 15 years, after which period
the certificate will expire.
Once the certificate has expired, the
tachograph must be replaced.
