Data recording
As part of Volvo's commitment to safety and
quality, certain information is recorded regar-
ding vehicle operation, functionality and inci-
dents.
US market only:
EDR
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 designed to record
data related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time, 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 brake
pedal; and,
•
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data
are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-
trivial crash 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 identifying data
routinely acquired during a crash 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.
ASDR
This vehicle is equipped with an Active Safety
Data Recorder (ASDR). This data recorder can
record information related to the usage of the
car, functional errors and active safety
actuations (e.g. auto brake). The information
saved is used by technicians for service and
maintenance to diagnose and repair possible
faults that has occurred in the vehicle and to
fulfil certain legal requirements. The registered
data can also, in congregated form, be used
for research- and product development –
purposes to continuously improve the safety
and quality of Volvo Cars. For more
information contact your local Volvo retailer.
