Get Navigation Guide for Volkswagen Tayron SUV First Generation (2018-2025)

Minimise playback.

The current vehicle position is determined by means of a global satellite system. To enable optimal navigation to the destination, all

readings and possible traffic information are compared with the available map material. Acoustic navigation announcements and visual

guidance direct the driver to the destination.

Depending on the country, some Infotainment system functions can no longer be selected when the vehicle is travelling above a

certain speed. This is not a malfunction, but simply a legal requirement.

If you sell or loan the vehicle, Volkswagen recommends resetting the Infotainment system to the factory settings (→ First steps in the

Infotainment system). This is the only way of deleting all personal data, e.g. information used for navigation. For further information,

refer to the section on mobile online services (section availability is country-dependent) .

WARNING

If settings, destination inputs and changes for the navigation system are made while the vehicle is in motion, this can distract the

driver and cause accidents and injuries.

● Drive with your full attention and with responsibility.

● Configure the settings and enter destinations and changes for the navigation only when the vehicle is stationary.

The navigation may recalculate the route if the driver misses a turning.

The quality of the output navigation recommendations depends on the navigation data available and, depending on country,

any reported traffic disruptions.

Depending on the vehicle and country, select “Online mode” and a mode with location data in the privacy settings before using

the mobile online services of the navigation system (→ Privacy settings).

The corresponding prerequisites must be met (→ Traffic information), e.g. the corresponding mobile online service must be

activated and, depending on country, the privacy settings adapted, in order to use the mobile online services, e.g. Online

Traffic Information . Only then will Online Traffic Information be output in the navigation system, for example. If no Online

Traffic Information is available, this is displayed in the Infotainment system (→ Navigation).

Restrictions during navigation

When the Infotainment system cannot receive any data from GPS satellites, e.g. in a tunnel, navigation can still continue using the

vehicle sensors.

In areas that are not or are not completely included in the Infotainment memory, the Infotainment system will also try to enable route

guidance.

If navigation data is unavailable or incomplete, the navigation system may be unable to determine the exact vehicle position. As a

result, the navigation may not be as exact as usual.

The course of the road is subject to constant changes, e.g. roadworks. In the case of obsolete navigation data, there may be errors or

inaccuracies during navigation.

Navigation announcements

Navigation announcements are acoustic driving instructions for the current route. The type and frequency of navigation

announcements depends on the settings and the driving situation, e.g. start of route guidance, driving on a motorway or in a

roundabout.

A navigation announcement informing you that you have reached the destination area is given if the exact destination cannot be

reached, e.g. because it is located in a non-digitised area. In addition, information on the direction and distance to the destination are

displayed on the screen.

Depending on equipment and in some countries, information on reported traffic disruptions on the route is provided during dynamic

traffic avoidance. An additional navigation announcement is given if the route is recalculated due to a traffic disruption or changed

driving style.

The volume of a navigation announcement can be adjusted or muted during output of the announcement. All other navigation

announcements are given with this volume setting or are muted. Further settings for the navigation announcements can be found in

the settings of the navigation system (→ Navigation).

Learning usage patterns

While travelling, the navigation saves the routes travelled and destinations arrived at in order to create suggested destinations

automatically. Destinations are learned depending on the time of day and the day of the week.

The navigation system can suggest learned routes. Route guidance begins when one of the suggested routes is selected.

The route guidance follows the selected route until the vehicle deviates from it. The route is recalculated and will guide you back to the

selected route via a direct alternative.

Relevant traffic disruptions are taken into account in the route guidance. Relevant traffic disruptions will be avoided if an alternative

route and the navigation data is available.

If you drive an already learned route when route guidance is inactive, the destination will be transferred to the route plan. It is not

necessary to actively start route guidance to the learned destination. Warnings may be given about traffic disruptions and a forecast

arrival time will be displayed.

You can activate or deactivate the function at any time and also delete the stored data for the function.

—When starting route guidance, make sure that the stored address of a contact is up-to-date. For this, the update of the phone book

in the Infotainment system must be fully completed (→ Mobile phone interface).

—Wait until the update of the phone book in the Infotainment system is fully completed (→ Mobile phone interface).

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 contract for mobile online services is needed for this. The service

depends on the vehicle equipment and is available only in some countries.

1. Switch on the ignition.

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 settings).

Anyone who uses the vehicle as an anonymous guest must reset the privacy settings each time they start the vehicle

(→ Privacy settings).

Updating navigation data manually

Current navigation data for larger regions, e.g. Western Europe, can be downloaded from the internet at www.volkswagen.com and

stored on a suitable USB data medium available commercially. If you switch off the Infotainment system, installation will be

interrupted and will automatically continue once the unit is switched on again.

1. Download the navigation data and save on a USB data medium.

2. Switch on the vehicle ignition.

3. Connect a USB data storage device to the Infotainment system when the vehicle is stationary.

The navigation data for regions that are currently frequently travelled is automatically updated in the background.

No message appears in the Infotainment system while the navigation data is being updated, or once the update is complete.

When you update navigation data manually, the USB data medium must remain continuously connected. No message appears

to indicate that the update has been completed.

Leave the USB data storage device connected to the Infotainment system for a few days until the navigation data for travelled

regions has been completely downloaded and installed. Installation takes place automatically in the background while driving.

Failure to do so will cancel the update.

If you remove the USB data medium and travel through a new region in offline mode, the navigation data will not be updated as there

is neither a USB data storage device nor an internet connection.
