Data transfer for Your Volkswagen Golf 4 Door 2023

ces can cause malicious software to be directly  
introduced into the vehicle and its systems.  
Data transfer  
— Only connect media (USB flash and other drives,  
electronic devices, SD and other memory cards,  
etc.) from known and trusted sources to your ve-  
hicle to help prevent malicious software from be-  
ing introduced into your vehicle.  
Cybersecurity  
Your vehicle contains many components that can  
send and receive information. They are connected to  
different networks to make navigation, communica-  
tion, and online services, such as Car-Net, possible.  
— Always make sure that only apps from known and  
trusted sources are installed on smartphones and  
other devices that are connected to your vehicle  
or that are to be installed into vehicle systems.  
These components include:  
— Onboard Diagnostic port  
— Control units with integrated eSIM card  
— Volkswagen Car-Net control unit  
— Mobile phone interface  
— Media control  
WARNING  
The introduction of malicious software into the ve-  
hicle and its systems can impair safety-related ve-  
hicle functions and cause loss of vehicle control,  
a crash, and serious personal injury or death, as  
well as potential data loss. To help minimize the  
potential risk of security breaches:  
— App-Connect  
— WiFi hotspot  
Never connect – or allow others to connect –  
·
— Bluetooth connection  
— USB port  
electronic devices or media such as USB flash  
drives to the vehicle unless you are sure that  
they come from known and trusted sources.  
— SD card slot  
— SIM card slot  
If you believe that your vehicle or its systems  
·
may be infected by malicious software, see an  
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized  
Volkswagen Service Facility right away.  
These are key components equipped with cyberse-  
curity measures that help prevent unauthorized and  
unlawful access to vehicle systems. However, no ve-  
hicle or system is absolutely immune from illegal or  
unauthorized access and misuse, particularly as cy-  
bersecurity risks evolve over time.  
VW Car-Net® Security & Serv-  
ice: Connecting you and your  
vehicle  
Therefore, you may be contacted by Volkswagen or  
an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized  
Volkswagen Service Facility regarding the need to  
update software to help prevent unauthorized and  
unlawful access to vehicle systems. It is important  
that you as the vehicle owner or lessee keep your  
contact information up-to-date so that you can be  
notified.  
Introduction  
VW Car-Net® Ready  
Your vehicle is equipped with VW Car-Net hardware,  
including a 3-button module in the overhead con-  
sole. To begin using Car-Net services, a subscription  
and activation are required. Many of the services re-  
quire a paid subscription; some services may be pro-  
vided through a trial subscription for a limited time.  
You too, can actively help reduce the risk of unau-  
thorized access to vehicle systems and functions:  
— Frequently change passwords using combinations  
of letters, numbers, and symbols that are hard to  
guess.  
— Have the vehicle serviced, repaired, and main-  
tained only by a qualified workshop. Volkswagen  
recommends using an authorized Volkswagen  
dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility  
for this purpose.  
VW Car-Net requires vehicle cellular connectivity  
and availability of vehicle GPS signal.  
WARNING  
Driver distraction causes accidents, collisions and  
serious personal injury! Using application software  
and VW Car-Net features while driving can distract  
the driver from traffic.  
— Never connect any devices that do not come from  
known and trusted sources to the Onboard Diag-  
nostic II port on your vehicle. This port is required  
by law and is used by authorized technicians to  
get information about the performance of your  
vehicle’s emissions controls. Attaching other devi-  
Always drive attentively and responsibly.

Once enrolled in VW Car-Net services please advise  
all who use the vehicle that different kinds of data  
can be sent and received automatically by the vehi-  
cle, including speed, location and more.  
The vehicle has an online connectivity unit (OCU)  
with an integrated SIM card (eSIM). In order to be  
able to use this eSIM, you need to purchase data  
plans via the In-Car Shop.  
The Car-Net features and services and any trial or  
paid subscriptions may be modified, discontinued,  
deactivated, reactivated, or expanded without fur-

Introduction  
Some Infotainment systems can be used as a Wi-Fi  
hotspot for Internet access on up to eight Wi-Fi de-  
vices.  
Bluetooth® Profile rSAP1)  
The Infotainment system is connected to a mobile  
device via the Bluetooth® Profile rSAP. Allow Internet  
connection must be activated in the Network settings  
menu.  
Some Infotainment systems can also use the Wi-Fi  
hotspot on an external Wi-Fi device (Wi-Fi client)  
→ page 210.  
A data connection is required for connecting to the  
Internet and for certain functions, such as using  
External Wi-Fi device1)  
Use the Wi-Fi hotspot on an external mobile device  
→ page 210.  
The Wi-Fi connection is encrypted by default  
with WPA2 encryption for security reasons.  
Volkswagen recommends always using WPA2 en-  
cryption. Observe legal regulations for the country  
where you are operating the vehicle.  
There may be fees for the required data con-  
nection. Volkswagen recommends using a mo-  
bile phone plan with a flat rate data package due to  
the possible volume of data. Information on this can  
be obtained from the mobile phone service provider.  
The Infotainment system can be used as a Wi-Fi  
hotspot for Internet access for up to 4 Wi-Fi devices.  
A data connection, for example through an eSIM  
card, a CarStick, or external Wi-Fi device, is also re-  
quired for connecting to the Internet and for certain  
functions, such as using Volkswagen Car-Net. The  
possible types of data connections depend on the  
country and the Infotainment system being used.  
Depending on your mobile data rate, addition-  
al costs (such as roaming fees) may result  
from downloading and using data packets online,  
especially in other countries.
