Service impairment or interruption
Apps
Volkswagen Car-Net is not available in all countries and is subject to country-specific limitations on
duration of use.
Volkswagen Car-Net allows you to communicate with your vehicle in order to exchange data,
request information or control functions.
In order to be able to use Volkswagen Car-Net, the vehicle has to be ordered with Car-Net and
factory-fitted with the system. Depending on the service or service portfolio, Volkswagen Car-Net
can be operated via the factory-fitted Infotainment system, via a Car-Net portal on the Internet or
using a mobile device.
Information about the Volkswagen Car-Net services, applications, availability, compatible mobile
devices and service portfolio, as well as service descriptions, are available on the Volkswagen
website:
In Europe and Japan: www.volkswagen.com/car-net

hina: www.vwcarnet.com.cn
Before using the Volkswagen Car-Net services for the first time, please read and observe the
information in the relevant service description. This will quickly help you to become familiar with the
services and make you aware of potential risks to yourself and others, and how to avoid them.

WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted.
Always drive carefully and responsibly.

WARNING
Failure to observe the information in the service description can lead to your vehicle breaking down
in traffic, and can cause accidents and serious injuries.
Always use the most up-to-date edition of the relevant service descriptions which is available on the
Volkswagen website.

WARNING
The following conditions can make it impossible to make a telephone call, run a Volkswagen Car-Net
service or transfer data:
If your current location is in an area with no or insufficient mobile communications and GPS
reception. This can also include tunnels, streets with tall buildings, garages, multi-storey car parks,
underpasses, mountains and valleys.
If you are in an area with sufficient mobile communications and GPS reception but the
telecommunications provider's mobile network is overloaded, out of order or unavailable.
If the components in the vehicle required for the services and data transmission are damaged, not
working or do not have sufficient electrical power.
The battery for the mobile device is empty, does not have a sufficient charge level or has no more
call credit.

WARNING
Using computers and mobile devices in public or non-secured LAN and WLAN networks can lead to a
loss of control over your Volkswagen Car-Net services.
In addition to the usual precautionary measures to be taken when using the Internet, you should
protect your computer and mobile device with suitable anti-virus software and regularly update its
signatures.

-Net portal, your computer and mobile device against misuse.

Applications and Volkswagen Car-Net services which are unsuitable or faulty or that are used
incorrectly can cause damage to the vehicle, accidents or serious injury.
Never make changes to applications or Volkswagen Car-Net services.

NOTICE
Volkswagen is not responsible for damage to the vehicle caused by poor quality or faulty third-party
applications, insufficient programming of applications, insufficient network strength, loss of data

Legal requirements

Fig. 144 Symbol for vehicles that send tracking information
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
By concluding a Volkswagen Car-Net contract for your vehicle, you as the contracting party
undertake within the meaning of data protection law to inform each driver that the vehicle can
transmit and receive data online. This also applies if you sell or lend your vehicle.
Failure to observe this obligation to inform can infringe certain rights of vehicle occupants.
GPS tracking: check with all occupants
Some Volkswagen Car-Net services require vehicle data to determine whether the vehicle is
complying with set speed limits, where the vehicle is parked, or whether the vehicle is located within
a defined area. This information can be displayed in the Car-Net portal and in the Volkswagen Car-
Net app.
Therefore, before setting off, ask all occupants if they agree to use of the activated services. If an
occupant does not agree, deactivate the service (if possible) or exclude the occupant from use of the
vehicle. If you do not observe this, you may violate certain rights of the vehicle occupants.
GPS tracking: symbol
If a factory-fitted control unit is used to transmit the vehicle's current location and speed, this
symbol Fig. 144will always be located in the vehicle (e.g. on the roof console). However, the

Fig. 144symbol in the vehicle does not mean that the control unit is not
transmitting the current position or speed of the vehicle.
Personal data
Volkswagen collects, processes and uses the user's personal data in accordance with statutory
requirements. You can access the current data protection policy on the Volkswagen homepage.
Deactivating Car-Net services

Fig. 145 Retrofitted sticker in the vehicle if Volkswagen Car-Net services have been permanently
deactivated.
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
If you sell the vehicle or lend it for a longer period, inform the user about the deactivated services
and deactivated control unit.
If your vehicle is already equipped with the legally required emergency call function eCall, this
function will not be affected by the deactivation described here.
Temporary deactivation
If your vehicle is in a workshop, you may find that the service technicians have deactivated individual
or all services for the duration of the workshop visit. The services will be available again once the
work is complete. Please contact your workshop if necessary. Volkswagen Car-Net portfolios can be
deactivated manually in the Infotainment system. The services can then be run again when the
deactivation is cancelled in the Infotainment system. Deactivated services are marked with a
corresponding indication on the start page of the Car-Net portal.
Permanent deactivation
In order to permanently deactivate Car-Net functions in vehicles with the Security & Service or e-
Remote packages, the online connectivity unit must be deactivated by a qualified workshop at your
request.
Once the on-board connectivity unit has been deactivated, the workshop will attach a sticker
Fig. 145to your vehicle (e.g. on the roof console). The sticker shows that neither the Volkswagen
emergency call service nor the automatic accident notification will work. All other e-Remote and
Security & Service services will also be deactivated.
Service impairment or interruption

Even when the above-mentioned requirements for using the services are met, the functionality of
the Car-Net services can be impaired or interrupted due to factors that lie outside the control of
Volkswagen AG. Such factors include in particular:
s.

transferring mobile data, e.g. from UMTS to EDGE or GPRS
An existing mobile telecommunications standard has been shut down by the telecommunications
provider.
Impairment or interruption to mobile and GPS reception, e.g. due to high speeds, solar storms,
weather, landscape, interfering devices or intensive use of the mobile network in the relevant cells.
Restricted availability, completeness or correctness of information provided by third parties, e.g.
maps.
Countries where Volkswagen Car-Net services are not available.
Apps
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
The Volkswagen Car-Net app can execute Volkswagen Car-Net services in the vehicle and provide
information.
Volkswagen App-Connect allows content from Volkswagen apps and third party apps on mobile
devices to be shown on the Infotainment system screen.
There may be problems with compatibility with third party apps.
A wide range of applications may be available and they may be vehicle-specific and country-specific
o depend on
availability of services offered by third parties.
We are unable to guarantee that the available apps can be run on all mobile devices and all
operating systems.
