Volkswagen Golf Mk7 Service & Repair Manual: Layout - multi-function steering wheel

This page explains why buttons are integrated in the Volkswagen Golf Mk7 steering wheel — for better control of infotainment, telephone, navigation, cruise control and the vehicle menu, plus Tiptronic rocker switches.

For a better usability of infotainment, telephone, navigation, cruise control system and vehicle menu, buttons are integrated in steering wheel. For Tiptronic, additional rocker switches are provided to the right and to the left.
