2011 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG ECO mode

Starting route guidance
Before you start a waypoint tour, drive to the immediate vicinity of the required starting point.
x Load stored waypoint tour
x In the Waypoint navigation menu, press the Start function key ⇒ fig. 210.
x In the following menu, select how the waypoint tour should be driven.
“Starting” off in a stored route is not detected by the system automatically.

Function key: Effect
Reverse waypoint tour : Reverses the direction of the displayed waypoint
tour to be driven.
From nearest : Will start the waypoint tour from the nearest waypoint.
Start whole tour : Will start the entire waypoint tour. In the menu that fol-
lows you will have to select how the start point of the waypoint tour should
be reached.
On road : The start point for the route guidance will be reached using
public roads as far as possible.
Off-road : The start point for route guidance will be reached in off-road
mode and any available roads will not be used.

When route guidance starts, the system will switch to the map view.
An audible signal is given when the starting point of the waypoint tour has been reached.
During route guidance
Characteristics of the terrain are ignored during route guidance. A driving recommendation will be given about 55 yards (50 meters) before reaching a turning point. You should therefore drive slowly and follow recommendations for turning as far as possible!
Changes in the direction of travel will be given in relation to the current direction of travel, such as “Please travel in direction 9 o'clock!”.
The tendency of the direction of travel will be shown in the instrument cluster display using arrows.
Stopping route guidance
x Press the Infotainment button NAV in the map display to open the Waypoint navigation menu.
x Press the Stop function key.

Acoustic driving recommendation settings
The volume of an acoustic driving recommendation can be adjusted to a predefined minimum and maximum volume using the volume control D. All additional acoustic driving recommendations are issued at this volume.
The volume of audible navigation recommendations can be preset in the volume settings.
In the Navigation settings menu, you can switch off spoken navigation recommendations or define their level of detail.
Even when navigation information is switched off, you can show them briefly in the map view by press-
ing the setting knob ⇒ fig. 131 (3).
If a turn was missed during route guidance and there is no possibility to turn, continue driving until the navigation system offers an alternative route.
The quality of the announcements given by the unit depends on the navigation data provided.

Advanced navigation settings: Demo mode and manual location
x In the Advanced navigation settings menu, check the check box in the Demo mode function key by pressing it = to start virtual route guidance to the entered destination.
x Press the Enter current position manually function key to select a manual location in the same way you entered a destination
If demo mode is enabled an additional pop-up window opens when you start route guidance.
x Pressing the Demo mode function key starts a “virtual route guidance” to the destination you have entered.
x If you press the Normal mode function key, a “real route guidance” starts.
The sequence of events and the operations in virtual route guidance are similar to those in real route guidance. Once a manual location has been entered, the virtual route guidance starts from that position.
Virtual route guidance is repeated when you reach the fictitious destination and always starts again from the starting point if it is interrupted.
When real route guidance is started following route guidance in demo mode, the unit first has to reori-ent itself. Depending on the number of currently received satellites, this orientation may take some time. Vehicle movement can reduce the re-orientation time.
If the vehicle is moved and the unit can determine its current location by GPS, any manually entered location will be overwritten with the current vehicle location.
Disable demo mode after use, otherwise you will be prompted to choose between virtual and normal route guidance each time you start route guidance.

x Bluetooth remote SIM Access Profiles (rSAP)19: The mobile phone must support rSAP. The telephone control does not use its own SIM card, but rather “borrows” the SIM data of the mobile phone via a Bluetooth connection. The mobile phone logs itself out of the GSM network and logs into the telephone control using the data from the “borrowed” SIM card. The telephone is then controlled exclusively via the controls in the vehicle. The mobile phone goes into standby mode. This Bluetooth profile allows all telephone control functions and the exterior aerial to be used to the full.
x Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile (HFP): If a mobile phone is connected via HFP to the telephone control, you can make calls wireless via the hands-free system. Many other telephone control func-tions are not available. The vehicle's exterior aerial can thus not be used.
x Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP): Bluetooth profile for transferring audio signals
Volkswagen recommends pairing a mobile phone with the telephone control via Bluetooth-rSAP in order to use all telephone control functions.
Components of the telephone control

Fig. 229 3 button module in the roof: Controls for the telephone control.

x To reconnect, deactivate the Bluetooth audio (A2DP) function in the Bluetooth settings menu.
x Connect a mobile phone.
x Activate Bluetooth audio (A2DP).
x Connect audio device via A2DP.
x If necessary, change settings for A2DP on the mobile phone.22
The volume can be changed directly on the mobile phone with several mobile phone models. Volkswagen recommends setting the volume to maximum on the mobile phone and adjusting the volume on the Infotainment System during operation.
On a connected Bluetooth audio source, all warning and service tones, such as touch tones on a mobile phone, should be switched off to avoid interference and malfunctions.
If the device is connected to the telephone control via A2DP, no other devices can be paired. The Bluetooth visibility of the telephone control deactivated for the duration of the active A2DP connection. This is not a fault in the telephone control. In order to pair further devices, deactivate the Bluetooth audio (A2DP) feature in Telephone settings and Bluetooth settings and activate it again after com-pleting the pairing.
Adjusting the volume

x To switch off Tiptronic mode, pull the paddle on the right + /&& toward you and hold it there for about 1 second.
Tiptronic will switch off automatically if the shift paddles have not been used for a while and the selec-tor lever is not in the Tiptronic position.
NOTICE
x During acceleration, the transmission will shift automatically into the next higher gear before reaching maximum engine speed (rpm).
x If you use Tiptronic to shift into a lower gear, the transmission will downshift only when doing so will not over-rev the engine.
Driving with automatic transmission

inputs to help keep the vehicle going in the intended direction. If you are traveling at a speed that causes you to run off the road before ESC can provide any assistance, you may not experience the benefits of ESC.
ESC includes and/or works together with the ABS, BAS, ASR, EDL, and XDL systems (see below). ESC is switched on all the time. In certain situations when you need less traction or additional traction
cannot be achieved, you can switch off ESC by pressing the ASR button ⇒ fig. 253. Be sure to switch ASR on again when you no longer need less traction.
ESC can be switched on and off manually in Off-road Mode ⇒  Off-road mode.
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
ABS helps to keep the wheels from locking up and helps to maintain the driver's ability to steer and control the vehicle. This means the vehicle is less likely to skid, even during hard braking:
x Push the brake pedal down hard and hold it there. Don't take your foot off the pedal or reduce the force on the pedal!
x Do not “pump” the brake pedal or let up on it!
x Steer the vehicle while pushing down hard on the brake pedal.
x ABS stops working if you release or let up on the brake.
When ABS is doing its job, you will notice a slight vibration through the brake pedal and hear a noise. ABS cannot shorten the stopping distance under all conditions. The stopping distance may even be longer, for instance, when driving on gravel or on newly fallen snow covering an icy or slip-pery surface.
When driving forwards on loose surfaces, a special off-road ABS is automatically activated. In this mode, the front wheels could lock briefly. This shortens the braking distance in off-road situations as the wheels dig into loose surfaces. This occurs only when driving straight ahead. When the front wheels are turned, the normal ABS is activated.
Brake Assist (BAS)
The Brake Assist System (BAS) can help to reduce stopping distances. If you press the brake pedal very quickly, BAS detects an emergency situation. It then very quickly builds up full brake system pressure, maximizing braking power and reducing the stopping distance. This way, ABS can be acti-vated more quickly and efficiently.
Do not reduce pressure on the brake pedal! BAS switches off automatically as soon as you release or let up on the brake.
Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR)
ASR reduces engine power directed to spinning wheels and adjusts power to the road conditions. Even under poor road conditions, ASR can make it easier to get moving, accelerate, and climb hills.
ESC and ASR can help when driving on loose surfaces (such as gravel) and in deep snow. If you get stuck in deep snow, you may be able to get going again by “rocking” the vehicle back and forth. ESC and ASR recognize this special driving situation and automatically increase the speed of the front wheels. Keep pressing the accelerator and let ESC increase the speed of the front wheels to help you keep moving or get moving again.
ASR can be switched on or off manually ⇒  Switching Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) on and off.
Electronic Differential Lock (EDL and XDL)
EDL is applied during regular straight-line acceleration. EDL gently brakes a drive wheel that has lost traction (spinning) and redirects the drive force to other drive wheels. In extreme cases, EDL automat-ically switches off to keep the brake from overheating. As soon as the brake has cooled down, EDL automatically switches on again.
XDL is an extension of the Electronic Differential Lock system. XDL does not react to drive wheel slippage when driving straight ahead. Instead, XDL detects slippage of the inside front wheel during
