The radio communications connection required for Volkswagen Car-Net services is provided by the user's mobile end device, e.g. mobile telephone, SIM card reader. This network signal allows Volks-wagen Car-Net services to receive data online, pass on vehicle data online and transmit additional information, new functions or extended vehicle functions. Volkswagen Car-Net offers the driver or user support functions based on vehicle data to-gether with data obtained from the Internet and IT systems.
The use of Volkswagen Car-Net and the necessary mobile network connection may be subject to a fee. Due to the potentially high volume of data in use, Volkswagen recommends using a mobile phone tariff which includes a data flatrate. For more information contact your mobile telephone provider.
Depending on the service, Volkswagen Car-Net can be operated via the factory-fitted radio or navi-gation system, via mobile devices or via the online customer portal (www.volkswagen-commercial-vehicles-camet.com).
Availability
Volkswagen Car-Net services can be subject to a limited period or changed, set, deactivated, reacti-vated and expanded without prior notice.
Content, scope and provider of Volkswagen Car-Net services can vary. They may also be specific to the vehicle and country/market. Some Volkswagen Car-Net services also depend on availability of service offered by third parties.
Volkswagen Car-Net services can be subject to re-gion-specific limitations. This means that a service may not be available in all parts of a country. This applies in particular to large countries such as Russia. Availability also depends on the network coverage in each country.
Determining the current vehicle position
Some services require the exact location of the ve-hicle in order to provide functions. Depending on the service installed the current vehicle position will be transmitted to the service provider. The driver can choose this option or this will take place auto-matically. When automatic transmission is selec-ted, the current location can also be transmitted at regular intervals.
Lending or selling the vehicle to others
When the vehicle is being sold or lent, the owner or rentaUieasing firm must inform the purchasing or lending party about Volkswagen Car-Net services installed in the vehicle and their functions.
Interferences
The following situations could lead to the interrup-tion of a data transfer or operation of Volkswagen Car-Net services, or impairment of one of the serv-ices which has been installed:
• High speeds
• Areas with insufficient mobile and GPS recep-tion
• Maintenance, repairs, software updates and technical changes to your service provider's tele-communication networks and databases
• Impairment or interruption to mobile and GPS reception, for instance due to weather, tunnels, ga-rages, car parks, underpasses or intensive use of the mobile network
• In countries where Volkswagen Car-Net serv-ices are not available
• A fault in the vehicle electrical system
• Vehicle battery empty or voltage too low
• If the control unit for the Volkswagen Car-Net service or the compatible radio navigation system is not working properly
Exchanging your system
If the factory-fitted radio-navigation system is dam-aged or must be exchanged in a vehicle with Volkswagen Car-Net services installed, go to a qualified workshop. This may entail re-registering or re-activating the Volkswagen Car-Net services.
Necessary registration
Use of Volkswagen Car-Net services requires reg-istration, authentication and activation of a contract only if Volkswagen Car-Net services for the rele-vant vehicle can also be activated on the customer portal. Further information about this can be found on the Internet at (www.volkswagen-commercial-vehicles-carnet.com) or obtained from a Volkswa-gen dealer.
If Volkswagen Car-Net services can only be activa-ted using the radio navigation system, registration on the customer portal is not required.
Volkswagen recommends seeking advice from a Volkswagen dealership before using and activating Volkswagen Car-Net services. Your Volkswagen dealership can provide information on the country-specific range of services and the compatibility of the radio or navigation systems.
If a Volkswagen Car-Net service is activated for a vehicle, the person who has entered Into the mobile telephone contract Is obliged to provide information to each driver of the vehicle re-garding the transmission and reception of data .-
