How do I use the Audi A7's touchpad for navigation?

I just got my new Audi A7 and I'm trying to figure out how to use the touchpad for navigation. I've tried swiping, tapping, and even writing on it but nothing seems to work. Can someone explain the proper way to use it?

To use the touchpad for navigation in your Audi A7, start by lightly swiping in a circle to engage the cursor, then use your fingers to move the cursor and select your desired destination or menu option. If you need further assistance, refer to your vehicle's manual or contact your local Audi dealership.
