The body structure of the Passat CC is based on the

body of the 2006 Passat saloon.
Compared with the saloon, the Passat CC with its
typical coup design is a few centimetres shorter,
wider and longer. The roof stretches in a shallow
radius from the A-pillar far beyond the C-pillar.

The distribution of steel sheet qualities in the

Passat CC are identical to that in the Passat saloon.
The pie chart shows the substantial proportion of
higher strength and ultra-high-strength thermoformed
steel panels as percentages.

The Passat CC sees the use of high to ultra-highstrength thermoformed steel panels continue.
Using ultra-high-strength thermoformed
steel panels allows the body weight to be reduced
without losing strength.

Tilting panorama sunroof
The optional tilting panorama sunroof consists of a
large glass roof and a roof control unit to operate it.
The large glass roof is a single-piece glass lid driven
by an electric motor.
The roof controls are in a module mounted in the car

The tilting panorama sunroof is assembled as a

top-load system. This means a roof module is fitted or
cemented to the body-in-white from above. This
allows the glass areas to span a large section of the
roof creating a fully glazed look.
The fully pre-assembled module with glass lid,
blind system, guide rails, mechanism, mounting
frame, electric motor drive and sealing system makes
assembly easier and reduces the manufacturing costs.
The mounting frame, which holds the whole system
and guarantees vehicle stiffness, is made from fibreglass reinforced plastic.

The front area of the roof between the front

windscreen and the glass lid of the tilting panorama
roof was integrated in the module and is gloss black.
The tilting panorama sunroof thus seems to extend the
front window visually to behind the B-pillar and also
contributes to the coup-like looks of the Passat CC.

The sealing system of the module also guarantees

water drainage to the outside.
A separate water drainage system using cost intensive
drainage hoses that are laid internally is not required.

Operation
The tilting panorama sunroof can be raised up to
four centimetres. The tilting panorama sunroof is
operated using the two tilt position buttons that are
operated by pulling or pushing the roof control.
The buttons are connected directly to the tilting
panorama sunroof control unit.

An opaque blind fabric is used to increase the

The blind system is infinitely variable regardless of

The blind system has steel tape guides at the side
to ensure that the fabric is tensioned.
The blind roller has been carefully adapted, i.e. it
is arched crossways to ensure the necessary

The door window fits into a 3-lip door-frame seal. The

door window first needs to be lowered out of the seal
before the door can be opened.
Therefore, whenever you open a door, the glass is
lowered slightly.
This function in the Passat CC window regulator
system is extremely fast. This is achieved, among other
things, with an additional microswitch in the outside
door handle. The procedure is started as soon as you
pull the door handle.

If the tilt of the window at the B-pillar does not coincide with the set value, the tilt of the rear door window needs to
be adjusted. Here too, the tilt is adjusted first at the bottom and then at the top. The tilt of the rear door window is
adjusted in the same way as the tilt of the front door window.

If the position of the window pillar does not coincide with the specified values, the height and tilt needs to be
adjusted.

Before an adjustment is made, the plug and the

panelling cap need to be removed and the bolts
loosened. The height is adjusted by raising or
lowering the window pillar. The tilt is adjusted by
pivoting the window pillar.

Acoustically enhanced front windscreen

The Passat CC has an acoustically enhanced front
windscreen as standard. This front windscreen allows
the very good aeroacoustic values for the Passat
saloon to be further reduced.
The total thickness of the windscreen with the acoustic
enhancement is the same as the conventional front
windscreen. An additional acoustic film has simply
been used here.

Active climatised seats with integrated ventilation for

the driver and front passenger are available as an
option for the Passat CC. The ventilator motors are in
the seat base and backrest. The air is supplied
through moulded ducts in the seat and backrest
cushions. The air is then distributed across the cover
and shaped foam base. The ventilation is provided
using the air from the vehicle interior. The seat
ventilation provides a cooling effect depending on the
temperature. The system is controlled by a switch that
is located immediately next to the seat adjustment
controls. You can set three ventilation levels (low,
medium and high) individually.
Parallel to the seat ventilation, you can also switch the
seat heating on whenever necessary.

Engines
Passat CC 2009 engine range
The engine range for 2008 comprises two common-rail diesel engines delivering 103kW and 125kW as well as
three petrol engines with direct injection that deliver between 118 and 220kW and are already in production for the
Passat saloon, Passat R36 and Tiguan models. The engine control units are networked via the powertrain CAN and
have been adapted due to new functions like, for example, Lane Assist or damper control.

The 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic that are

already used in production as well as the 6- and 7speed Direct Shift Gearbox are available. For reasons
of comfort, the 6-speed Direct Shift Gearbox has been
modified for use with the 3.6l 220kW FSI engine. It
has longer gear ratios and the 6th gear is configured
as Economy.

The conflict of aims between a sporty harder ride and

a comfortable configuration has therefore been
solved. This is noticeable for drivers and passengers
due to the considerably better ride comfort also in
Normal mode.

The Comfort mode is a stark contrast. In particular

on bad roads and when driving slowly, the comfort is
improved decisively. The suspension characteristics
are now similar to those of a luxury saloon like the
Phaeton.

Mobility tyres
The Passat is fitted with special tyres from Continental.
The tyre called Conti Seal is a mobility tyre.
If foreign bodies penetrate the tread, they are
enclosed by a viscous sealant.
Holes up to 5mm in diameter that are left when you
remove the foreign body are sealed safely. The
sealing function lasts the life of the tyre.

Unlike other mobility solutions, for example,

run-flat tyres with reinforced walls (SST, Self Support
Tire) or asymmetric rim systems (PAX), the mobility tyre
does not have any concept-related disadvantages like
increased rolling resistance, acoustic and mechanical
comfort effects or poor uniformity.

do so manually using the button in the drivers door.

Lane assist

If the vehicle seems to be leaving this virtual lane,

there is an automatic steering correction. A maximum
steering moment of up to 3Nm is applied. If this is not
sufficient or the correction intervention takes too long,
the driver is warned about the situation by a
vibration, among other things, and is asked to take
over the steering.

agen
lksw
Vo

If the road has recognisable lane markings or if the

contrast between the road and roadside as well as the
centre marking is strong enough, the Lane Assist
system will calculate a virtual lane taking safety
aspects into account.

Lane Assist is another driver-assistance system like,

the ACC adaptive cruise control or Front Assist
(for shortening braking distance 2).
The Lane Assist system has the task of automatically
correcting the steering via the drive for the
electromechanical power steering if the vehicle is in
danger of leaving the lane.
The Lane Assist system monitors the road ahead of the
vehicle with the aid of a greyscale camera.

Field of vision heating

for Lane Assist

The greyscale camera in the Lane Assist control unit is

the centrepiece of the Lane Assist system.
Other system components are the Lane Assist warning
lamp and the field of vision heating for Lane Assist.
The warning lamp indicates the operating mode of
the Lane Assist system.
The field of vision heating for Lane Assist ensures that
the area of the windscreen in the camera image does
not fog up or become covered with condensation.
This ensures that the camera can see the road ahead
properly.
The Lane Assist can be switched on and off with
the button for driver assistance systems on
the front of the turn signal lever. If the Lane Assist
system recognises clear road boundaries within its
system limits, the system switches to the active
operating mode in which steering correction can be
performed.

The optical parking system does not only generally

detect obstacles in front of or behind the vehicle, but
also its position in the scanning area. Now the driver
is supported not only acoustically, but also optically.
During the parking manoeuvre, OPS displays a
diagram of the vehicle on the radio or navigation
system screen that is surrounded by coloured areas.
These coloured areas show the exact position and
distance from obstacles for the driver.
The OPS allows a low-cost graphic display to be
provided without discrete display elements (e.g. LED
bar). The driver can quickly detect the position of the
obstacles and navigate more precisely. The picture is
switched off above 15km/h.

OPS is achieved by the parking aid control unit

evaluating the distance information according to
sector and transferring it to the screen.
The BAP operating and display protocol is used on the
CAN bus for this.
The received data is converted into a graphical
display in the BAP-compatible RCD 310/510
radio or RNS 510 navigation system.

The optical parking system is activated using the

parking aid button or by selecting reverse gear. Using
the four ultrasound sensors that are located at the
front and rear, the distance from an object in front of
and behind the vehicle is determined by the parking
aid control unit.
If the vehicle reaches a specific distance from this
object, there is an acoustic warning from the rear
parking aid warning buzzer.

The ID3 tag is additional information that can be contained in MP3 audio files. ID3 stands for Identify
an MP3. Tag is simply a label attached to the file. MP3 files can, but do not have to contain ID3 tags.
The ID3 tag is part of the MP3 file. The most important content of the ID3 tag is the artist, the name of the
album and the name of the music track.

Aerial concept in Passat CC 2009
Several aerials are integrated in the rear windscreen of the Passat CC. The aerials for navigation (GPS), telephone
(GSM) and auxiliary heating (FFB) are accommodated in a roof aerial.
The impedance transformer (amplifier) for the AM and FM systems are mounted in the C-pillars on the left and
right. The connections to the aerial amplifiers are adapted to the equipment in the vehicle. Only the connections
that are actually required by the infotainment components (radio, telephone, navigation, TV, etc.) are provided on
the window. The different radio tuner principles lead to different FM aerial systems being fitted in the vehicle.

As the aerial structure for AM does not have a connection to the heating structure, an AM blocking circuit is not
required.

The MDI control unit is accommodated in a plastic

case of the MDI box. The MDI box has a safe and
anti-slip facility for you to place the mobile
multimedia device and is single DIN size. The MDI
box is fitted in space for the CD changer. Thus, only
one device can be fitted at any one time in the
Passat CC.

Connection possibilities
The mobile device is connected depending on the type with a special adapter cable that is optionally connected to
the central interface, the adapter connection. The following audio formats are currently supported and can thus be
played back: MP3, WMA and OGG Vorbis (license-free audio data compression Codec). The AAC format that is
also supported is a licensed format from Apple.

If only the AUX-IN socket is fitted in the vehicle, it is connected directly to the AUX input of the
fitted RCD/RNS radio or navigation system. If the vehicle also has a Media-Device-Interface, the
optional AUX-IN socket is connected to the MDI box as the AUX input of the radio is already occupied
by the MDI.

52

How it works
The MDI box is connected to the vehicle data network
via the infotainment CAN data bus and is connected
directly to the 12-volt power supply. The connected
media devices are thus also loaded automatically.
The adapter connection and an additional external
audio input (AUX-IN) serve as inputs.

Multifunction steering wheel

Using the MDI requires a display device with

operating and display protocol (BAP) as it can only be
controlled with this via the CAN bus. The MDI itself
does not have a control facility. BAP-compatible

The MDI also has a control module to recognise the

provided data, interpret the control signals for the
connected devices like iPod or MP3 player and
translate them for the infotainment controls like, for
example, the touch screen of the RCD 510 and

Transfer of music data is now also possible using the new Bluetooth profile A2DP audio streaming.
A2DP stands for Advanced Audio Distribution Profile and is a special Bluetooth profile, just like rSAP on the
UMPP Premium, that is not part of the standard Bluetooth connection. The A2DP profile allows music files to be
transferred unidirectionally to the UMPP control unit via a stereo audio stream. Considerably higher data
quantities are transferred than with pure speech data.

In the AUTO setting (= automatic mode), the air-conditioning control unit regulates the interior temperature
to the required level using the received information quickly and easily and keeps it constant even when outside
conditions change.
AG.

AUTO High

AUTO Low

The AUTO High mode is an automatic mode with

greater quantities of air. The target temperature is
reached as quickly as possible. AUTO High is
configured especially for a high risk of misting (high
inside and/or outside humidity) and for ideal
ventilation of the rear area. The right-hand LED in
the AUTO button is illuminated in AUTO High mode.
The fresh air fan runs in the standard characteristic
curve.

The AUTO Low mode is an automatic mode with

smaller quantities of air. The Climatronic gently
regulates the preset interior temperature giving
priority to acoustic comfort.
The left-hand LED in the AUTO button is illuminated in
AUTO Low mode. The fresh-air fan speed in AUTO
Low mode is always one level lower than in AUTO
High mode.

In automatic mode, the Climatronic system automatically adjusts the control motors for the air-distribution flaps of
the air-conditioning/ heating system. The air flowing from the air-conditioning unit has the set temperature and is
conducted towards the windscreen, footwell or air vents. The quantity of air is controlled steplessly via the fan
speed depending on how much air is required to reach or maintain the comfortable temperature. The temperature
of the air entering the vehicle is also continuously measured by the Climatronic system. By setting the target value
on the two temperature rotary knobs, the occupants specify the level of the interior temperature to be set,
everything else is controlled automatically by the Climatronic system.

Display on RCD510, RNS310 and RNS510

The radio or radio/navigation screen also shows

information on the Climatronic system. For example,
the temperature appears as a pop-up when you
adjust the temperature.
