Introduction  
The current vehicle position is determined by a global satellite system. In order to enable optimum navigation to your  
destination, all measured values and possible traffic information are compared with the available map material.  
Acoustic 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.  
If you sell or lend the vehicle, Volkswagen recommends resetting the Infotainment system to the factory settings  
(→ First steps in the Infotainment system). This only deletes all personal data, such as information about navigation.  
Please note additional information on this in the chapter on the online services, which are available depending on the  
country .  
WARNING  
If settings are adjusted, destinations entered and changes made to navigation information while driving, the driver  
may be distracted and cause accidents and injuries.  
Always drive attentively and responsibly.  
Only adjust settings, enter destinations, or change navigation information when the vehicle is stationary.  
If you missed a turn on your route, the navigation system may recalculate the  
route.  
The quality of the driving directions depends on the available navigation data and, depending on the country,  
any reported traffic incidents.  
Depending on the vehicle and country, before using the online services of the navigation, select “Online  
mode” and a mode with location data in the privacy settings (→ Privacy settings).  
In order to use online services, e.g. Online Traffic Information, the corresponding online service needs to be  
activated and, depending on the country, the privacy settings need to be adapted . Only then can online traffic  
information, for example, be displayed in the navigation system. If no online traffic information is available,  
the following symbol will be displayed depending on the vehicle equipment:  
.

Navigation restrictions  
If the Infotainment system cannot receive data fromGPS  
satellites, for example in a tunnel, 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.  
The road layout is subject to constant changes, e.g. construction sites. Using outdated navigation data can lead to  
errors or uncertainty when using route guidance.  
Function descriptions  
Voice guidance  
Navigation messages are acoustic driving directions for the current route. The type and frequency of navigation  
messages depends on the settings and the driving situation, such as the start of the route guidance and whether you  
are driving on a highway or roundabout.  
If the destination cannot be reached exactly, for example because it is not in a digitized area, there will be a  
navigation announcement that the Destination area has been reached. Messages about the direction and distance to  
your destination will also be displayed on the screen.  
Depending on the vehicle equipment and in some countries, reported traffic incidents on the route are announced  
during dynamic route guidance. There will be an additional navigation announcement if the route is recalculated due  
to a traffic incident or a change in driving style.  
You can adjust or mute the volume during a traffic announcement. All other navigation announcements will be given  
at that volume or will be muted.  
Navigation messages will not be given if the Infotainment system is  
muted.

certain data, such as frequently driven routes and positioning data.  
Delete saved data  
1. Tap  
Basic functions Delete usage pattern.  
2. Tap confirm to delete the data.  
Learning usage patterns  
While driving, the Navigation system saves routes traveled and destinations reached in order to create automatic  
destination suggestions. Destinations are learned with reference to the time of day and the day of the week.  
The navigation system can suggest pre-learned routes. Selecting one of the suggested routes will cause route  
guidance to begin.  
The route guidance follows the selected route until you deviate from it. The route will then be recalculated and will  
lead back to the selected route via the most direct path.  
Relevant traffic disruptions are taken into consideration in route guidance. If an alternative route and the navigation  
data are available, relevant disruptions will be avoided.  
If you are driving a pre-learned route without active route guidance, the destination is added to the route plan. Route  
guidance does not need to be actively started for a journey to a pre-learned destination. You are warned about traffic  
disruptions if necessary and an estimated arrival time is displayed.  
You can activate or deactivate this function at any time as well as delete the saved data for this function.

Navigation data  
The Infotainment system is equipped with an internal navigation data storage medium. Depending on the country,  
the required navigation data may already be installed.  
The Infotainment system always requires up-to-date navigation data to ensure that route guidance can be  
implemented correctly and that the functions provided are fully available.  
NOTICE  
If you use outdated navigation data, there may be adverse effects on the navigation system. It may not be possible  
to determine up-to-date routes, or route guidance may guide you to an incorrect destination.  
Always ensure that your navigation data is kept up-to-date.  
Navigation Data Online – Additional Information  
Regions in the navigation data that you do not use can be removed from the system under certain circumstances, e.g.  
navigation data memory low on space. If you subsequently need these regions again at a later time, the navigation  
system will download them again on request. No contract for mobile online services is required for this purpose. This  
service depends on the vehicle equipment and is only available in some countries.  
1. Switch the ignition on.  
2. Establish an Internet connection if you have not already done so.  
3. Depending on the country, also select the “Share my position” mode in the privacy settings (→ Privacy settings).
