and  
.
Some functions may contain links to websites that are administered by third parties. Volkswagen AG does not assume ownership of third-party sites accessed  
through links and is not responsible for their content.  
Some functions may contain third-party information that originates from third-party providers. Volkswagen AG is not responsible for the accuracy, currentness,  
and completeness of this non-proprietary information, and for ensuring that the rights of third parties are not violated.  
The radio stations and owners of the data carriers and audio sources are responsible for the transmitted content.  
Parking ramps, garages, underpasses, tunnels, tall buildings, mountains and valleys or electrical devices such as battery chargers can also interfere with cell  
phone, GPS and radio signal reception.  
Foil stickers or stickers with a metal layer placed on the antenna and on the windows can impair radio reception.  
Read and follow the applicable manufacturer's operating instructions when using cell phones, data carriers, external devices, and external audio and media  
sources.  
WARNING  
The factory installed radio with integrated hardware is networked with the control units installed in the vehicle. Therefore if the radio is improperly repaired or  
improperly removed and installed, there is an increased risk of accident and injury.  
Never replace the radio with a used radio from a scrap vehicle or from recycling.  
Only let the radio be removed and installed or repaired by suitably qualified professionals and have it replaced if necessary. Volkswagen recommends  
contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.  
WARNING  
The Infotainment system's central processor is networked with the control modules installed in the vehicle. As a result, if the central processor is incorrectly  
repaired, removed or reinstalled, there is an increased risk of accident and injury.  
171  
Never replace the central processor with a used central processor from a scrap vehicle or from recycling.  
Always have the central processor repaired, removed and reinstalled by suitably qualified professionals. Volkswagen recommends contacting an  
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.  
WARNING  
Driver distraction can cause accidents and injuries. Reading information on the screen, operating the Infotainment system and connecting, inserting or removing  
a data carrier or audio source while driving can distract from traffic and cause accidents.  
Always drive attentively and responsibly.  
WARNING  
Displays and information on the screen may be difficult to read if the lighting conditions are unfavorable or if the screen is damaged or dirty.  
Never allow displays and information on the screen to cause you to engage in behavior that poses a safety risk. Always drive attentively and responsibly.  
WARNING  
Setting the volume too high prevents warning chimes from being heard from outside and can cause hearing damage. This is true even if you are exposed to a  
loud volume for only a short time.  
Adjust the volume settings in the Infotainment system so that audible signals from outside the vehicle (such as sirens on emergency service vehicles)  
can still be heard.  
WARNING  
Sudden volume fluctuations may occur when the audio or media source is changed or connected.  
Reduce the volume level before changing or connecting an audio or media source.  
WARNING  
The following conditions may prevent or cause interruptions to emergency calls, phone calls, and data transmission:  
If you are in a location with no or very poor cell phone or GPS reception.  
If you are in a location where there is good cell phone and GPS reception, but the telecommunications provider's mobile communications network is  
malfunctioning or unavailable.  
If the vehicle components required for emergency calls, phone calls, and data transmission are damaged, not operating, or have insufficient power.  
If the cell phone battery is drained or if the battery charge level is too low.  
WARNING  
Radio stations can broadcast messages about disasters and dangers. It may not be possible to receive or send messages under the following conditions:  
If you are in a location with no radio reception, or insufficient reception.  
If the radio station's frequency bands are malfunctioning or not available.  
If the speakers and vehicle components required for radio reception are damaged, not operating, or have insufficient power.  
WARNING  
In some countries and mobile networks, emergency calls can only be made under the following conditions:  
A cell phone with an unlocked SIM card and sufficient calling credit is connected to the vehicle's phone interface.  
Adequate network coverage is available.  
WARNING  
Using a cell phone or CB radio inside the vehicle without a separate outside antenna that is installed correctly may create electromagnetic energy that exceeds  
permissible limits. This may be dangerous to your health and that of your vehicle occupants. This also applies if the exterior antenna is not installed correctly.  
Keep the cell phone or radio equipment antenna at least approximately 8 inches (20 cm) away from any active medical implants, such as pacemakers,  
172  
because cell phones can impair the function of active medical implants.  
Do not place a cell phone or radio equipment that is turned on directly above or in the immediate vicinity of any active medical implants, for example by  
keeping the cell phone in a shirt pocket.  
Immediately switch off cell phones or radio equipment if you suspect there is interference with an active medical implant or other medical device.  
WARNING  
Unsecured or incorrectly mounted cell phones, external devices, and accessories can be thrown through the vehicle interior and cause injury in the event of  
sudden driving or braking maneuvers or a collision.  
Secure cell phones, external devices and accessories outside of the airbag deployment zone or stow them securely.  
Arrange cables for external devices and audio sources so that they are not in the way of the driver.  
WARNING  
Driving recommendations and traffic signs displayed in the navigation system may differ from the actual traffic situation.  
Traffic signs, signal systems, and traffic regulations take priority over the driving recommendations and displays in the navigation system.  
Adapt your speed and driving style to the visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.  
Certain events, such as road closures, can considerably increase the original estimated driving time and distance to the destination, or navigation there  
may be temporarily impossible.  
NOTICE  
Radiation from cell phones that are switched on can interfere with sensitive technical and medical devices, potentially causing malfunctions or damage to the  
devices.  
Always switch off the cell phone in areas with special regulations relating to or prohibiting the use of cell phones.  
NOTICE  
Setting the volume too high and excessively loud or distorted playback can damage the speakers.  
Select the volume setting so that the speakers are not damaged.  
User information  
Refer to ⇒  
and Safety instructions.  
The Infotainment system must start completely before all displays can appear and functions can be performed. The length of time that it takes for the system to  
start depends on the scope of functions in the Infotainment system, and it can take longer to start at low and high temperatures.  
Observe local regulations and legal requirements when using the Infotainment system and corresponding accessories, such as a headset or headphones.  
For the Infotainment system to function correctly, it must be switched on and the vehicle must be set to the current date and time.  
A function key or button not appearing on the screen does not indicate a device error, but is due to the country-specific equipment on your vehicle.  
Some Infotainment system functions can only be selected when the vehicle is stationary. In some countries, the selector lever must also be in the P or N  
position. This is not a malfunction, but rather compliance with legal regulations.  
Some countries may have restrictions regarding the use of Bluetooth® devices. Information can be obtained from the local authorities.  
Light pressure or touching the screen is sufficient to operate the Infotainment system.  
If the 12 V battery has been disconnected, switch on the ignition before switching on the Infotainment system.  
Displays on the screen may vary due to differences in the settings, and the Infotainment system may function differently than described in this manual.  
In some countries, the Infotainment system will switch off automatically when the engine stops and if the 12 Volt vehicle battery charge level is low.  
In some vehicles with a parking system, the volume of the current audio source may be automatically lowered when you shift into reverse. The volume  
reduction level can be adjusted.

Media mode  
Introduction  
The term “audio sources” is used in general for data carriers that may contain files, such as music tracks, audio books, and other audio files. These can be played  
back via media drives and wired or wireless connections to the Infotainment system.  
The wired and wireless connections that are available depend on the country and the device.  
Volkswagen is not responsible for damaged or lost files on audio sources and data carriers.  
The owner of the audio sources and data carriers is responsible for the information that is transmitted.  
Restrictions and instructions for data carriers  
Dirty, overheated or damaged data carriers are not to be used. Read and heed the information provided by the manufacturer.  
Difference in quality between data carriers from different manufacturers can cause problems with media playback.  
Wrong configuration of data carriers can lead to the data carriers being unreadable.  
The storage volume, condition (copy and delete processes), file system, folder structure and the amount of saved data can increase the time taken to read data  
carriers.  
Playlists only define the order of play and refer to the saved location of the media files within the folder structure. No media files are saved in playlists. To play a  
playlist, the media files must be present in the data storage device memory location, to which the playlist refers.

Video DVDs you have recorded yourself may not play or their function may be limited.  
DVD region codes  
DVD compatibility is often defined by “regional codes” which limit the video playback to certain regions (for example, USA and Canada). Such DVDs can only be  
played in devices that are coded for this region.  
The DVD drive in the device is configured to read the regional code that is used in the country where the vehicle was delivered.  
Navigation  
Introduction  
The current vehicle position is determined by a global satellite system. All measured values and possible traffic reports are compared with the available map  
material to enable optimum navigation to your destination.  
Audible navigation aids and graphic representations lead you to your destination.Audible navigation aidsAcoustic navigation announcements and graphic displays  
lead you to your destination.  
Depending on the country, it may not be possible to select some Infotainment system functions on the screen when driving above a certain speed. This is not a  
malfunction, but rather compliance with legal regulations.  
WARNING  
Only adjust settings, enter destinations, or change navigation information when the vehicle is stationary.  
WARNING  
Driving recommendations and traffic signs displayed in the navigation system may differ from the actual traffic situation.  
Traffic signs, signal systems, and traffic regulations take priority over the driving recommendations and displays in the navigation system.  
Always adjust your speed and driving style to road, traffic, weather, and visibility conditions.  
Certain events, such as road closures, can considerably increase the original estimated driving time and distance to the destination, or navigation there  
may be temporarily impossible.  
If a turn was missed during route guidance and it is not possible to turn around, continue driving until the navigation system offers an alternative route.  
The quality of the driving directions provided by the Infotainment system depends on the available navigation data and any reported traffic incidents.  
Voice guidance  
Navigation messages are acoustic driving directions for the current route.  
The type and frequency of navigation messages depends on the driving situation, like the start of the route guidance, whether you are driving on a highway or  
roundabout, and your settings.  
If the destination cannot be reached exactly, for example, because it isn't in a digitized area, there will be a navigation announcement that the “Destination area” ha  
been reached. Messages about the direction and distance to your destination will also be displayed on the screen.  
During dynamic route guidance, reported traffic incidents on the route are announced. There will be another announcement if the route is recalculated due to a  
traffic incident.  
You can adjust the volume during a traffic announcement. All other navigation announcements will then play at that volume.  
Navigation messages will not be given if the Infotainment system is muted.  
Navigation restrictions  
If the Infotainment system cannot receive data from GPS satellites, for example in a tunnel or in an underground garage, navigation will still be possible using the  
vehicle's sensors.  
In areas that are not digitized or only partially digitized in the Infotainment system memory, the Infotainment system will still try to provide route guidance.  
If navigation data is missing or incomplete, the vehicle position may not be determined accurately. This may result in navigation that is not as accurate as usual.  
Routing is subject to ongoing changes, like new streets, construction zones, road closures, or changes to street names or house numbers. Using outdated  
navigation data can lead to errors or uncertainty when using route guidance.

After route guidance has started, the route to the first journey destination is calculated.  
Depending on your chosen settings, three alternative routes may be suggested when route guidance has started fig. 118. These three routes are calculated to  
offer you a choice between ꢀeconomical, ꢀfast and ꢀshort.  
Route criteria: Meaning  
Blue route : takes you on the most economical route.  
Red route : fast route to the destination, even if detours are necessary.  
Orange route : short route to the destination, even if the travel time is longer. Route guidance may include roads that are not commonly used, such as side  
roads.  
1. Choose your route by tapping on the right of the map.  
The setting for route criteria in the Route options menu changes accordingly.  
If no route is selected, route guidance starts automatically after one minute based on your chosen settings in Route options.  
Note: With trailer recognition active, the arrival time (ETA) suggested by route guidance is calculated based on a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h), depending  
on the country. This results in a longer travel time than with trailer recognition deactivated.  
Voice guidance (navigation announcements)  
203  
The first navigation announcement is given after the route has been calculated. There will be up to three navigation announcements before a turn, such as “Turn lef  
soon”, “Turn left in 900 feet (300 meters)”, and “Turn left now”.  
1. Press the control knob to repeat the last navigation announcement.  
The type of road and the driving speed determine the distances that are announced. Navigation announcements are given much earlier on highways, for example,  
than during city driving.  
In the case of multi-lane roads, branching roads, and traffic circles, appropriate navigation announcements will be given, such as “Exit traffic circle at the second  
exit”.  
Upon reaching the destination, there will be a navigation announcement indicating that the “destination” has been reached.  
If the destination cannot be reached precisely because it is located in a non-digitized area, there will be a navigation announcement indicating that the “destination  
area” has been reached. The direction of the specified destination and the distance to it is also indicated. Navigation continues “offroad”.  
During dynamic route guidance, reported traffic incidents on the route are announced. There will be another announcement if the route is recalculated due to a  
traffic incident.  
The volume during a navigation announcement can be adjusted to a defined minimum and maximum volume using the rotary knob and push-button. All other  
navigation announcements will then play at that volume.  
If a turn was missed during route guidance and it is not possible to turn around, continue driving until the navigation system offers an alternative route.  
The quality of the driving directions provided by the Infotainment system depends on the available navigation data and any reported traffic incidents.  
Mobile phone interface  
Introduction  
Using the phone interface, you can connect your cell phone to the Infotainment system and control the phone functions via the Infotainment system. The sound is  
played back via the vehicle speakers.  
The functions described in the following information can be opened on the Infotainment system screen if a cell phone that is turned on is paired and connected to  
the system. The functions that are available depend on the cell phone that is used.  
You can connect multiple cell phones to the Infotainment system at the same time. However, only one device is active at a time and can be used to make calls. The  
second connected device, or any other connected devices, can receive calls via the Infotainment system and be used to play media.  
The phone interface functions will not be available if there is no cell phone paired and connected with the interface.  
High speeds, poor weather and road conditions, a lot of background noise (even outside the vehicle), and the network quality can impair phone calls in the vehicle.  
The phone interface may contain a compensator which offsets disruptions to the cell phone reception and also improves the transmission and reception  
performance of the cell phone.  
Prior to the first use  
Follow all safety precautions ⇒ Safety instructions.  
Check if your cell phone is suitable and if the Bluetooth® function is supported.  
Activate Bluetooth® in the cell phone and set it to visible.  
Pair and connect the cell phone to the Infotainment system.  
You generally only need to pair a device (such as a cell phone) once. You can reestablish the connection to the Infotainment system at any time via Bluetooth or  
Wi-Fi, without re-pairing your device.  
Only use compatible Bluetooth® devices.  
Most electrical devices are shielded against high-frequency signals. However, in some rare cases, electronic devices may not be shielded against high-  
frequency signals from the mobile phone interface. Interference can result from this.  
Observe any country-specific regulations when using a headset.

Deactivate the automatic keypad lock and screen saver.  
You will need to enter information using the cell phone keyboard during the pairing process. Refer to the operating instructions for the cell phone.  
Bluetooth® technology  
Some cell phones are detected automatically and connect when the ignition is switched on if the device has been previously connected to the system. For this to  
happen, the cell phone and the Bluetooth® function on the cell phone must be switched on, and all active Bluetooth ® connections to other devices must be  
disconnected. It may be necessary to input other information on the cell phone.  
There is no cost for the Bluetooth® wireless connection.  
Bluetooth® profiles  
If a cell phone is connected to the phone interface, data can be exchanged via one of the Bluetooth ® profiles listed in the information that follows.  
The availability of Bluetooth® profiles depends on the country, the vehicle equipment and the cell phone.  
Bluetooth® profile: description  
Hands-Free Profile  
HFP  
If a cell phone is connected to the phone interface via HFP, calls can be made wirelessly through the hands-free system.  
Message Access Profile  
MAP  
If a cell phone connected to the phone interface supports the MAP function, text messages and e-mails can be received, displayed,  
and sent through the phone interface.  
Phonebook Access Profile  
PBAP  
PBAP allows access to the phonebook in a connected cell phone.  
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile  
Profile for transmitting audio signals in stereo quality (music playback).

AVRCP  
NOTICE  
If authorization takes place via the cell phone, the “Message Access Profile” (MAP) and the “Phonebook Access Profile” (PBAP) will be automatically connected  
with the “Hands-Free Profile” (HFP). If the cell phone is connected with the “Advanced Audio Distribution Profile” (A2DP), the “Audio Video Remote Control  
Profile” (AVRCP) will be automatically connected as well.  
Coupling, connecting and managing  
Before the phone interface can be used, an initial pairing process with the cell phone is required in order to make both devices available to each other. A user profile  
is created in the phone interface. The cell phone is uniquely assigned to it.  
®
Each cell phone must be paired initially with the phone interface via Bluetooth  
.
Several cell phones can be paired with the Infotainment system, but only one cell phone can be connected to the Infotainment system at a time.  
When the Infotainment system is switched on, it will automatically try to connect to the cell phones that were most recently connected. If the system cannot connect  
to these cell phones, the phone interface will attempt to connect to the next cell phone on the list of paired cell phones.  
The maximum range of a Bluetooth® connection is about 33 feet (11 meters). The Bluetooth ® connection will be disconnected if this distance is exceeded. The  
device will automatically reconnect once the cell phone is within Bluetooth® range.  
Pairing takes several minutes. Pairing can only take place when the vehicle is stationary.  
For additional information on pairing and connecting cell phones, contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.  
To help prevent unauthorized use, visibility should be deactivated on the cell phone after successfully pairing.  
When running a device search, select a location where there are likely to be few visible cell phones.

The Infotainment system and the cell phone will now be paired with each other. In some cases, you may need to enter additional information on both the cell phone  
and in the Infotainment system in order to complete the pairing process.  
1. Confirm the pairing on the cell phone if necessary.  
2. Depending on the cell phone: Enter the PIN shown on the Infotainment system screen on the cell phone and confirm.  
Or: compare the PIN displayed on the Infotainment system screen with the PIN displayed on the cell phone. If it is the same, the code must be confirmed on  
both devices.  
Once pairing has completed successfully, the PHONE main menu is displayed and the phonebook, call lists, and text messages stored in the cell phone are loaded  
automatically. A confirmation on the cell phone may be necessary.  
The amount of time needed for the transfer depends on the amount of data stored on the cell phone. After the transfer is complete, the data will be available in the  
Infotainment system.  
Bluetooth® coupling via NFC  
NFC is not available in all countries and on all vehicle models.

Types of phone interface  
Some symbols and functions are only available during a phone call.  
Depending on your vehicle equipment, you can choose between two types of mobile phone interface:  
Phone interface basic configuration.  
Convenience phone interface.  
Phone interface basic configuration  
The phone interface basic configuration uses the Bluetooth® Hands-Free Profile ( HFP) for transmission. This enables the use of phone functions via the  
Infotainment system and played back via the vehicle speakers.  
If a cell phone is connected to the phone interface via Bluetooth® Hands-Free Profile (HFP), calls can be made wirelessly through the hands-free system.  
The exterior vehicle antenna cannot be used for this.  
Convenience phone interface  
Just like the basic configuration of the phone interface, the Convenience phone interface uses the Bluetooth® Hands-Free Profile.  
The Convenience phone interface can be equipped with the wireless charging function ⇒ Wireless charging function.  
In order to use the features of the wireless charging function, you need to place a suitable cell phone correctly in the storage compartment. This will then connect  
the cell phone to the vehicle antenna. This improves reception and call quality.  
Wireless charging function  
Fig. 119 Diagram: storage compartment with a liner pad for wireless charging. The symbol on the liner mat may look different in some vehicles.  
The wireless charging function depends on the vehicle equipment and is not available in all countries.  
The wireless charging function uses electromagnetic induction to transfer energy wirelessly over short distances.  
The maximum charging power is 5 watts.  
Only Qi-capable cell phones without a protective case and a maximum total length of approximately 140 mm may be placed on the wireless charging shelf.  
The Qi standard allows suitable Qi-capable cell phones to be charged wirelessly. Wireless charging is not available in all countries and all vehicle models.  
In some vehicles, a “phone symbol” on the liner mat indicates the center position for the wireless charging function fig. 119.  
To charge a Qi-capable cell phone, place it in the center of the storage compartment with the display facing up fig. 119. The charging process starts automatically  
after that. The operating instructions or the cell phone manufacturer will indicate if the cell phone supports the Qi-standard.  
The Infotainment system installed at the factory informs you when the charging process is starting and if there are any foreign objects with metal components, such  
as coins, keys, etc., in the storage compartment. Remove foreign objects immediately.  
If the cell phone is not positioned correctly or if it is too large, it may not be detected correctly or detected at all. The system may then notify you of a foreign object  
on the surface. Correcting the position on the surface may correct the malfunction.  
Qi-capable cell phones that are too large cannot be charged wirelessly.  
208  
WARNING  
Metal objects on the shelf can become very hot. This may cause burns to the skin or a fire.  
Do not place metal objects or objects with metal components on the wireless charging shelf.  
NOTICE  
If any ID cards or credit cards are placed on the shelf, data stored on the magnetic strips or the chip could become unusable.  
Do not place any ID cards, credit cards, etc. with magnetic strips or with a chip on the wireless charging shelf.
