This function is only available if the
vehicle is equipped with a mobile
service module.
You can use the "Vehicle Homepage" when
the vehicle has connected to the Internet
via the mobile service module. The mobile
service module uses GSM (Global System for
Mobile Communications) and transfers the
required data via radio transmission. The
vehicle automatically detects if a connec-
tion to the Internet via the mobile service
module is available or not. No pre-settings
need to be done.
In order to use data transfer via the mobile
service module you do not need a SIM card
and no contract.

There may be service limitations if the
vehicle is located for example in a
underground garage. Service limita-
tions may also appear in areas with poor

standard. Data is transmitted via phase L1
and the neutral conductor of the power line.
In order for the vehicle to access the Inter-
net, you require a commercially available
adapter of the "HomePlug AV" standard.
This adapter must also have an encryption
button so that it can be configured to com-
municate with the vehicle. Connect the
adapter to the power supply as well as your
Internet connection. If the adapter is con-
nected to different phase than L1, a phase
coupler must be additionally installed.
Only in this way can stable communication
be guaranteed. For questions, consult a
qualified electrician.

If you already have a powerline network
installed, the vehicle can be integrated
into it.
To establish a connection between the
vehicle and a powerline adapter, carry out
the following:
