NEW Important
Note
The VOLKSWAGEN Infotainment system is an
electronic system for centrally controlling and
operating a large number of functions such as
climate, navigation, mobile phone etc.
The aim of this programme is provided interested
readers with an overview of the components
belonging to the Infotainment system as well as
the operation and display functions of the Info-
tainment system.
Due to the complexity of the system, this Self-
Study Programme cannot achieve the depth of
an operating manual but it can serve as a refer-
ence guide within the structure of the system.
As the Infotainment system is subject to continu-
ous development, this Self-Study Programme can
only describe the current version of the functions.
For more information about the inclusion of the
Infotainment system within the onboard power
supply, please refer to SSP272 "The Phaeton
Onboard Power Supply".
You will find in detail information about climate
control in SSP271 "The Phaeton Heating and
Air Conditioning System".
The Self-Study Programme presents the design
and function of new developments. The contents
will not be updated.
Please always refer to the relevant Service literature
for up-to-date inspection, adjustment and repair
instructions.

●Telemetrics
(traffic congestion warning, alternative routes)
●Trip data
(distance data, fuel consumption,
refueling stops)
●Climate
(regulation of heating and air conditioning
system, solar roof function, auxiliary heating)
●Running gear settings

Introduction

The actual functions that are available in a vehicle is mainly dependent on the equipment
of the Phaeton.

The Infotainment system mainly consists of the
following, besides the operating units in the dash
panel, the steering wheel and in the rear:
- the MF display in the dash panel insert,
- the navigation computer and the CD-ROM
the CD player in the glove box,
- the aerials in the rear window, and
- the microphone for language input and car
phone functions.
The microphone is mounted in the console in the
headlining.
These main elements are interlinked in the CAN
databus Infotainment system.
This data network is one of a total of three
CAN databus networks in the Phaeton:
- Drive CAN databus
- Convenience CAN databus
- Infotainment system CAN databus
All three networks interchange information. This
allows the Infotainment system to access a large
number of sensors and actuators.

Rear information display and operating unit
The buttons on this unit only allow
access for controlling the rear
climate zones.
Outlook
An extended rear operating unit is conceivable
as part of further development of the Infotain-
ment system.
Similar to the front information display and oper-
ating unit the functions in the operating menu are
selectable from a function key line. There is also
a rotary/push knob to select entries from the
menu display or to confirm selection by pressing
the button.
Submenus or special functions are also activated
via function keys whose functions may change
from menu to menu.
At the bottom of the operating unit there is a
socket to plug in headphones.

Navigation computer with CD-ROM
This is housed in the glove box together with the
CD player of the audio system.
CD player with CD changer
It can handle 6 CDs and has a shock memory.
Severe shocks may cause the reading head to
jump to another position. The shock memory has
the function of returning the reading head to the
place where it was directly before the shock. The
car occupants will not hear the interruption since
the CD player buffers the music read by the
reading head for about 10 seconds before it
plays back.
Aerials
All aerials are recognisable by thin lines at the
top of the rear window.
The control unit for the aerials is fitted under the
cover in the headlining just in front of the rear
window.

Climate line
The climate line buttons have fixed functions. In addition to these buttons there are a number of
different settings provided by the function keys. The buttons in the climate line are always active
no matter what main Infotainment system menu is currently in the screen.
