Introduction to navigation

Navigation data
All navigation data required for navigation is stored in the unit navigation data memory.
Street routing is subject to ongoing changes like, for example, new streets, street names or street numbers. The route guidance may be inaccurate or incorrect if the navigation data is no longer up to date. You should therefore have the unit navigation data memory updated by a Volkswagen dealer-ship on a regular basis. The updates are subject to a fee.
Possible errors in navigation
When the navigation system cannot receive any data from GPS satellites (dense canopy of trees, tunnel, underground car park), navigation can still continue using the vehicle sensors.
In areas that are not or only incompletely digitized on the data medium (such as one-way streets and street type not sufficiently captured), the navigation system also tries to enable route guidance.
Please remember that the navigation may sometimes not be so accurate as usual if the precise vehi-cle position cannot be determined.
