WARNING
Refer to your vehicle's warning and indicator lights for the most
current diagnostic information. Always consult this manual for
maintenance guidelines. Failure to heed warning lights and in-
strument cluster text messages can cause the vehicle to break
down in traffic and result in a collision and serious personal
injury.
Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.
Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Park the vehicle at a safe distance from moving traffic and
where no part of the hot catalytic converter and exhaust system
can come into contact with flammable materials under the vehi-
cle, such as dry grass, brush, spilled fuel, etc.
A broken down vehicle presents a high accident risk for itself
and others. Switch on emergency flashers and set up a warning
triangle to warn oncoming traffic.
The Volkswagen Car-Net website (http:// www.vw.com/carnet)
contains the most up-to-date information and instructions about
Volkswagen Car-Net services.
Please regularly visit the website to learn about changes to ser-
vices and new features.
Volkswagen Car-Net features can be modified, discontinued, deac-
tivated, reactivated or expanded without any further notice.
Application software (“apps”)

Page 44 of 578


about how the apps collect, use and share information about you,
your vehicle or your mobile device.
The application software provided may be designed to be used for a
variety of purposes and be specific to your vehicle and country ⇒ .
The content, range of software provided and application software
provider can vary. Some application software is also subject to the
availability of services provided by third parties. In order for some
application software to work, wireless service reception must be
strong enough to handle the data exchange involved (text and data
rates apply).
Application software descriptions may be provided by the service pro-
vider.
Due to the multitude of mobile devices and fast pace of software de-
velopment, the application software provided may not run on all mo-
bile devices and their operating systems. This may even apply for the
same model of a mobile device. For example, application software
may run on version 2 of the device's operating system but not on ver-
sion 3.
Application software can be modified, discontinued, deactivated, re-
activated or expanded without any further notice.
In order for some application software to work, the wireless or cable
connection between the factory-installed Radio or Navigation system
and a compatible, functioning mobile device must be strong enough
and uninterrupted.
NOTICE
Volkswagen is not responsible for vehicle damage caused by
inferior-quality or malicious application software, poorly pro-
grammed application software, insufficient wireless service re-
ception, data loss during transmission or misuse of mobile de-
vices.

WARNING
Always observe traffic rules and posted speed limits and use
common sense. Your good judgment can mean the difference
between arriving safely at your destination and being seriously
injured in a crash or other kind of accident.
Regular service and maintenance of your vehicle is important
both for operational and driving safety and to help prolong your vehi-
cle's service life. Always follow the scheduled maintenance intervals
in the ⇒ Booklet Warranty and Maintenance, especially for changing
the brake fluid. Hard use, frequent stop-and-go driving, driving in very
dusty areas, trailer towing, and other factors may make it necessary
to have the vehicle serviced more frequently. Ask an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for
more information.
