Before troubleshooting or servicing, technicians must be familiar with all telematics functions, operating 
specifics and the particular service plan which the customer subscribes to.

Telematics, technical features 

Telematics is an in-vehicle communication system that uses cellular and Global Positioning System (GPS) 
technologies to provide the customer with safety, security and convenience services. 

GPS is a "constellation" of 24 satellites that orbit the earth and constantly broadcast radio signals. The 
Telematics/Telephone Control Module receives GPS data, decodes it, and transmits the vehicle's location to the 
service provider's call center via the national cellular network. 

Telematics services for Volkswagen customers are provided by On Star(R) via a dedicated call center. Service 
plans may provide route directions and concierge services as well as emergency or vehicle repair services. For 
details, See Volkswagen Telematics by OnStar(R); Owner's Manual. 

Utilization of available Telematics services/features take place via customer's voice control, See Volkswagen 
Telematics by OnStar(R); Owner's Manual.
