About this document
■ Data protection
Regulation (EU) 165/2014 and Imple-
mentation Regulation (EU) 2016/799 as
amended place several requirements on
the DTCO4.1 in terms of data protec-
tion. In addition, the DTCO4.1 fulfils the
requirements of the General Data Pro-
tection Regulation (EU) 2016/679, as
amended.
This particularly affects:
• The driver's consent to the processing
of personal ITS data è Personal ITS
data [}10]
• The driver's consent to the processing
of personal VDO data è Personal
VDO data [}10]
The first time the driver card is inserted
into the DTCO4.1, the equipment will
prompt whether the driver consents to
the processing of his personal data.
IMPORTANT
Further information relating to data pro-
tection, particularly with respect to data
collection and data usage, are available
from your employer and/or client.
Please note that Continental Automot-
ive Technologies GmbH acts solely as
a processor in accordance with your
employer/client.
IMPORTANT
Please note that any given consent can
be revoked at any time. Any data pro-
cessing based on your consent carried
out up to the revocation is not affected
by this.
è Changing settings to personal ITS
data [}92]
è Changing settings to personal VDO
data [}93]
IMPORTANT
The data is saved in the tachograph
and, after reaching the maximum data
volume, systematically overwritten one
by one, starting with the oldest entries –
after one year at the earliest.
External devices communicating with the
tachograph can access the data de-
scribed below, provided the driver has
consented to the recording.
IMPORTANT
Further data protection information re-
garding personal data can be found un-
der https://www.fleet.vdo.de/meta-nav-
igation/faq/.

For your safety
■ Basic safety information
WARNING
Distraction due to device mes-
sages
There is a risk of distraction if mes-
sages are displayed on the device
while driving or if the card is automatic-
ally ejected.
• Do not let yourself get distracted by
this, but focus all of your attention on
the traffic.
CAUTION
Risk of injury at the card drawer
You and others may sustain an injury
on an open card drawer.
• Only open the card drawer to insert
or remove a tachograph card.
ATTENTION
Carry out training on theDTCO4.1
Pursuant to Regulation (EU) 165/2014,
road transport operators are obliged to
train their drivers in the use of digital
tachographs and to provide proof of
such training.
Failure to comply can result in a fine
and extended liability in the event of
damage.
• Have your drivers attend regular
training.
ATTENTION
Avoid damage to theDTCO4.1
In order to prevent the DTCO4.1 from
getting damaged, please note the fol-
lowing points:
• Authorised persons installed and
sealed the DTCO4.1. Do not carry
out any repairs at the DTCO4.1 and
the supply lines.
• Insert only the corresponding tacho-
graph cards into the card drawer.
• Use only paper rolls with approval
mark which have been approved
and recommended by the manufac-
turer (original VDO printer paper).
è Replacing the printer paper
[}119]
• Do not use sharp or pointed objects
to operate the keys.

ATTENTION
Do not damage sealings and seals
Otherwise, the DTCO4.1 is in non-
compliant condition and the data is no
longer reliable.
ATTENTION
Do not manipulate data
It is forbidden to falsify, suppress or
destroy tachograph recordings, the
tachograph cards and the printed docu-
ments.
ATTENTION
Do not change the DTCO4.1 and
surroundings
• Any person making changes to the
tachograph or the signal feed in a
way that influences the recording
and memory of the tachographs, es-
pecially if done with fraudulent inten-
tions, violates legal regulations.
• It is not permitted to carry out any
changes within 80mm, especially
through devices with magnetic radi-
ation (e.g. DVD players).
It is not permitted to attach any
metallic or electric parts.
• When operating devices which are
not part of the vehicle's standard
equipment, it must be ensured that
they do not interfere with the func-
tion (especially the GNSS reception)
of the tachograph .
This may result in corresponding
entries in the error memory (tacho-
graph,driver card).
► DTCO4.1 ADR (ex variant)
For better clarity, all details (particularit-
ies in relation to the operation and relev-
ant safety information) regarding the ex
version ADR have been summarised in
one single chapter.
RISK OF EXPLOSION!
Risk of explosion due to residual
voltages and open interfaces
In explosive areas, operating the but-
tons of the DTCO4.1, inserting cards,
opening the printer drawer or opening
the front interface, posts an explosion
risk.
• Please observe the instructions for
the transport and handling of haz-
ardous goods in explosive environ-
ments.

■ Legal requirements
ATTENTION
Legal requirements of other coun-
tries
This instruction manual does not list the
legal requirements of individual coun-
tries, and these must also be observed.
The use of tachographs is regulated by
the following regulations and directives:
• Regulation (EU) 165/2014
• Regulation (EC) 561/2006
• Directive 2006/22/EC
The most recent versions apply.
By means of these Regulations, the
European Parliament assigns a number
of duties and responsibilities to the driver
of the vehicle as well as to its owner
(contractor).
In addition, the respective national laws
must also be observed.
Without any claim to completeness or
validity, the following key points can be
highlighted:
► Driver card: Obligations of the
driver
• The driver must ensure that the driver
card and the tachograph will be used
properly.
• Behaviour in the event of malfunctions
of the tachograph:
– Continuing the journey is possible
in exceptional cases.
The driver must write down on a
separate sheet or on the back of
the printout any details about the
activities which are no longer prop-
erly recorded or printed by the
tachograph.
è Recording activities manually
[}56]
– If a return to the contractor's site
cannot occur within a week, the
tachograph must be repaired dur-
ing the journey by an authorised
specialist workshop.
• Documents to be carried during mixed
operation (use of vehicles with record
sheet and digital tachograph):
– Driver card
– Daily printouts
– Tachograph charts
– Hand-written records
è Driver / vehicle change [}62]
IMPORTANT
A printable version of the form is avail-
able in the Internet.
• In case of loss, theft, damage or mal-
function of the driver card:
The driver must create a daily printout
at the start and at the end of the jour-
ney and include personal details. If
necessary, the availability and other
working times must be amended by
handwritten entries.
