Navigation data  
The Infotainment system has an internal navigation data memory. Depending on the country, the required navigation  
data is already pre-installed.  
In order to carry out route guidance correctly and make full use of the functions offered, the Infotainment system  
always requires up-to-date navigation data.  
NOTICE  
If you use obsolete data, navigation may be impaired. Current routes cannot be determined or route guidance leads  
to the wrong destination.  
Always keep navigation data up-to-date.  
Online navigation data – expansion  
Regions in the navigation data that are not used by the user may be removed from the system under certain  
circumstances, for example if there is limited memory space in the navigation data memory. If these regions should  
be needed again at a later point in time, the navigation system will download them again on request. No VW Connect  
contract or VW Connect Plus contract is required for this. The service depends on the vehicle equipment and is  
available only in some countries.

2. Establish an internet connection, if this does not already exist.  
3. Depending on the country, also select “Online mode with location data” in the privacy settings (→ Privacy
