bracket, → or stow it in a storage compartment so that it cannot slip around, e.g. in the centre console. Customer information In case of support for SIM card access mode (rSAP) technology for telephone interfaces, use a compatible mobile phone. In case of support for LTE mobile communications standard, using a SIM card with LTE data option. Information recorded in the control units Your vehicle is fitted with electronic control units. In order to ensure the safe operation of the vehicle, some control units are needed to control. Some control units are required for the safe func- tioning of your vehicle, others support you when driving (driver assist systems).
In addition, the ve- hicle also provides comfort and infotainment sys- tem, which are also realized through the elec- tronic control unit. Two-way radios Observe legal requirements and the manufactur- er's operating instructions for operating two-way radios. The retrofitting of two-way radios re- quires authorisation. Ask a qualified workshop for further information on installation of a two-way radio. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership. Electronic control units are equipped with tem- porary or long-term storage of data on vehicle status, component load, maintenance require- ments, as well as technical content and faults.
Depending on the technical equipment, the fol- lowing data is stored: WARNING Mobile telephones that are not secured or not properly secured could be flung through the vehicle interior in the event of a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre or accident and cause serious injuries. – Operating states of system components, e.g. filling levels, tyre pressure, status of the vehi- cle battery. ● Secure or stow a mobile telephone and ac- cessories safely and outside the deployment zone of the airbags such as telephone cages, notepads, portable navigators and phone ac- cessories. – Vehicle status information, e.g.
speed, deceler- ation, lateral acceleration, number of wheel revolutions and display of closed seat belts. – Faults or malfunctions in important system components, e.g. lights, brakes. WARNING – Information on events which damaged the ve- hicle. If a mobile telephone or two-way radio that is not connected to an external aerial is used, electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle could exceed limit values. This also applies to external aerials which have not been correctly installed. This can endanger the health of the driver and the vehicle occupants. – System reactions to specific driving situations, e.g. triggering of an airbag, intervention of the stability control systems.
– Ambient conditions, e.g. temperature and rain. ● Keep a distance of around 20 cm between a device’s aerial and an active medical implant, e.g. a pacemaker. In addition to the application of the control unit functions themselves, these data are also used by the company to identify and troubleshoot faults and optimize vehicle functions. Much of this data is temporary and applied only inside the vehicle. Only a small part of the data is kept in the failure memory and, if necessary, in the vehicle keys. ● Do not carry device which is operationally ready close to or directly above an active medical implant, e.g. in a breast pocket.
● Switch off the device immediately if you sus- pect it may be interfering with an active medical implant or any other medical device. Read event data recorder This vehicle is equipped with an event data re- corder for reading the data stored in the event memory, → event memory records fault data and data that deviates from the specified value of the control unit.
