If you wish to operate your vehicle in another country or re gion, you may be required to adapt your vehi cle to meet different prevailing operating con ditions and homologation requirements. You should also be aware of any applicable war ranty limitations or exclusions for such country or region. In such case, please contact Cus tomer Relations for further information.

Maintenance

Maintain the vehicle regularly to sustain the road safety, operational reliability and the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

Specifications for required maintenance meas ures:

MINI Maintenance system.

Service and Warranty Information Booklet for US models.

Warranty and Service Guide Booklet for Canadian models.

If the vehicle is not maintained according to these specifications, this could result in serious damage to the vehicle. Such damage is not covered by the MINI New Vehicle Limited War ranty.

Data memory

General information

Electronic control devices are installed in the vehicle. Some of these are necessary for the ve hicle to function safely or provide assistance during driving, for instance driver assistance systems. Furthermore, control devices facilitate comfort or infotainment functions.

Electronic control devices contain data memo ries, which are able to temporarily or perma nently store information about the condition of the vehicle, component load, maintenance re quirements, technical events or faults.

This information generally records the state of a component, a module, a system or the environ ment, for instance:

Operating states of system components, e.g., fill levels, tire inflation pressure, bat tery status.

Status messages for the vehicle and its indi vidual components, e.g., wheel rotational speed, wheel speed, deceleration, trans verse acceleration, engaged safety belt in dicator.

Online Edition for Part no. 01402983278 - X/17

Information

Malfunctions and faults in important system components, for instance lights and brakes.

Information on vehicle-damaging events.

Responses by the vehicle to special situa tions such as airbag deployment or en gagement of the stability control systems.

Ambient conditions, e.g., temperature, rain sensor signals.

The data is required to perform the control de vice functions. Furthermore, it also serves to recognize and correct malfunctions, and helps the vehicle manufacturer to optimize vehicle functions. The majority of this data is transient and is only processed within the vehicle itself. Only a small proportion of the data is stored in event or fault memories and, if needed, in the vehicle key.

Reading out data

When servicing, for instance during repairs, service processes, warranty cases, and quality assurance measures, this technical information can be read out from the vehicle together with the vehicle identification number. A dealer’s service center or another qualified service cen ter or repair shop can read out the information. The socket for OBD Onboard Diagnosis re quired by law in the vehicle is used to read out the data. The data is collected, processed, and used by the relevant organizations in the serv ice network. The data documents the technical conditions of the vehicle, helps in locating faults and improving quality, and is transferred to the vehicle manufacturer, if needed.

Furthermore, the manufacturer has product monitoring duties to meet in line with product liability law. To fulfill these duties, the vehicle manufacturer needs technical data from the vehicle. Fault and event memories in the vehi cle can be reset when a dealer’s service center or another qualified service center or repair shop performs repair or servicing work.

Data on the scope of servicing work performed and maintenance records are stored in the ve

hicle by means of the service history and trans ferred to the vehicle manufacturer. The vehicle owner can contact a dealer's service center to object to the data being stored and transferred to the vehicle manufacturer. This objection ap plies for as long as the vehicle owner remains the proprietor of the vehicle.

Data entry and data transfer into the vehicle

General information

Depending on the vehicle equipment, some data can be transferred into the vehicle when using comfort and infotainment functions, for instance:

Multimedia data such as music, films or photos for playback in an integrated multi media system.

Address book data for use in conjunction with an integrated hands-free system or an integrated navigation system.

Entered navigation destinations.

Data on the use of Internet services.

This data can be stored locally in the vehicle or is found on a device that has been connected to the vehicle, e.g., a smartphone, USB stick or MP3 player. If this data is stored in the vehicle, it can be deleted at any time. This data is only transmitted to third parties if expressly desired. This depends on the personal settings selected for using online services.

Depending on the vehicle equipment, the fol lowing comfort and individual settings can be stored in the vehicle and modified at any time, for instance:

Settings for the seat and steering wheel po sitions.

Suspension and climate control settings.

Individual settings, for instance lighting in the car's interior.

10

Online Edition for Part no. 01402983278 - X/17

 

Information

Control via mobile devices

Depending on the vehicle equipment, mobile devices connected to the vehicle, for instance smartphones, can be controlled via the vehicle control elements. The sound and picture from the mobile device can be played back and dis played through the multimedia system. Certain information is transferred to the mobile device at the same time. Depending on the type of connection, this includes, for instance position data and other general vehicle information. This optimizes the way in which selected apps, for instance navigation or music playback, work.

There is no further interaction between the mo bile device and the vehicle, for instance active access to vehicle data. How the data will be processed further is determined by the provider of the particular app being used. The extent of the possible settings depends on the respective app and the operating system of the mobile device.

Services

General information

If the vehicle has a wireless network connec tion, this enables data to be exchanged be tween the vehicle and other systems. The wire less network connection is realized via an invehicle transmitter and receiver unit or via personal mobile devices brought into the vehi cle, for instance smartphones. This wireless net work connection enables 'online functions' to be used. These include online services and apps supplied by the vehicle manufacturer or by other providers.

Services from the vehicle manufacturer

Where online services from the vehicle manu facturer are concerned, the corresponding functions are described in the appropriate place, for instance the Owner's Manual or man ufacturer's website. The relevant legal informa tion pertaining to data protection is provided

there too. Personal data may be used to per form online services. Data is exchanged over a secure connection, for instance with the IT sys tems of the vehicle manufacturer intended for this purpose. Any collection, processing, and use of personal data above and beyond that needed to provide the services must always be based on a legal permission, contractual ar rangement or consent.

In addition, the vehicle manufacturer evaluates anonymized information on transport infra structure and how the infotainment system is used. This information cannot be traced back to individual vehicles or people. Evaluating the data enables the manufacturer to further im prove its products or services, for instance by incorporating the most up-to-date traffic bulle tins. The data transfer feature can be deacti vated in the vehicle. Certain services and func tions, some of which are subject to a charge, can be deactivated by the driver. It is also pos sible to activate or deactivate the data connec tion as a whole. That is, with the exception of functions and services required by law such as Assist systems.

Services from other providers

When using online services from other provid ers, these services are the responsibility of the relevant provider and subject to their data pri vacy conditions and terms of use. The vehicle manufacturer has no influence on the content exchanged during this process. Information on the way in which personal data is collected and used in relation to services from third parties, the scope of such data, and its purpose, can be obtained from the relevant service provider.

Event Data Recorder EDR

This vehicle is equipped with an event data re corder EDR. The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situa tions, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in under

Online Edition for Part no. 01402983278 - X/17

11

 

Information

standing 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 fastened.

How far, if at all, the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal.

How fast the vehicle was traveling.

This data can help provide a better understand ing of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.

EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a nontrivial crash situation occurs; no data is re corded by the EDR under normal driving condi tions and no personal data, for instance name, gender, age, and crash location, are recorded.

However, other parties, such as law enforce ment, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely ac quired during a crash investigation.

To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehi cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the ve hicle 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.

Vehicle identification number

The vehicle identification number can be found in the engine compartment, on the right-hand side of the vehicle.

The vehicle identification number can be found on the type label, on the right-hand side of the vehicle.

The vehicle identification number can also be found behind the windshield.
