Introduction
VW Car-Net Ready
Your vehicle is equipped with VW Car-Net hardware, including a three-button module in the roof console. In order to use the VW Car-Net services, you need a
subscription to them and to activate them. Many of the services come at an additional cost. Some services may be offered as a trial subscription for a limited period
of time.
VW Car-Net requires a mobile network connection and GPS signal availability.
WARNING
Using apps while driving can distract from traffic. Driver distraction can cause serious accidents and fatal injuries.
Only use apps and functions when the vehicle is stationary.
Always drive attentively and responsibly.
Once you have registered with VW Car-Net, positional information from the vehicle is transmitted every time one of the VW Car-Net buttons is tapped. This
also occurs in the event of an automatic emergency call or periodically in conjunction with using the VW Car-Net functions. Volkswagen has the capability to
determine the exact position of the vehicle at any time, should this be required legally, by order or compulsory measure, or be necessary in emergencies,
provided that the VW Car-Net equipment has not been deactivated. For further information, please contact the VW Car-Net Response Center on 1-833-648-
2735. Calls may be monitored or recorded.
Volkswagen collects, processes, shares and transmits information about you and your vehicle in compliance with the VW Car-Net terms and conditions and
privacy provisions. For more information, please visit our website at:
