reset VOLKSWAGEN CC 2008 Owners Manual

The trip odometer (trip) shows the distance driven since the last time
the trip odometer was reset. The last digit indicates 1/10 mile
(100 meters).
Outside temperature display
At outside temperatures below about +39 °F (+4 °C), a “snowflake
symbol” (icy road warning) appears in the display. The symbol flashes
at first, then stays on until the outside temperature rises above +43 °F
(+6 °C) ⇒ .
When the vehicle is not moving or when you are driving at very low
speeds, the temperature displayed may be slightly higher than the
actual outside temperature.
The measurement range is from -40 °F (-40 °C) to +122 °F (+50 °C).
Compass display (if applicable)
On vehicles equipped with compass display, the current compass
direction is indicated in the instrument cluster display when the igni-
tion and navigation system are switched on ⇒  Compass.
Selector lever positions
The selector lever position is shown both on the side of the selector
lever and in the instrument cluster display. The respective gear may
also be shown in the instrument cluster display in Drive D and Sport
Drive S, as well as in Tiptronic® mode.
Gear recommendation (manual transmission)
When the vehicle is moving, a fuel economy gear recommendation
may appear in the instrument cluster display ⇒  Shifting.

Background lighting in the outside mirrors
The background lighting in the outside mirrors illuminates the area
near the doors when entering and exiting the vehicle. It is switched on
when the vehicle is unlocked, a vehicle door is opened, or the “Com-
ing home” or “Leaving home” feature is activated. If the vehicle is
equipped with a light sensor, the background lighting in the outside
mirrors is only switched on in darkness.

After adjusting the tire inflation pressures, make sure to screw the
valve caps back on; replace missing valve caps immediately. Please
read and heed the information on resetting the Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System, if necessary ⇒  Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
Remember that the vehicle manufacturer, not the tire manufacturer,
determines the correct tire pressure for the tires on your vehicle.
Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure listed on the tire side-
wall for any reason.
Inflate a spare wheel to the pressure specified for the vehicle's road
wheels on the tire pressure label; inflate a compact spare wheel to
the pressure specified for the compact spare on the tire pressure la-
bel or on a separate label for the compact spare, if there is one.
WARNING
Incorrect tire pressure can cause a sudden tire failure or blow-
out, loss of control, collision, serious personal injury, and even
death.
Always inflate tires to the recommended and correct cold tire
pressure before driving off.
Low tire pressure can cause tires to get too hot, resulting in
tread separation, sudden loss of pressure, and blowouts. Tires
with excessively low pressure flex (bend) more, which can
cause the tire to overheat and fail suddenly without warning.
Excessive speed and/or overloading can cause heat build-up,
sudden tire failure including a blowout and sudden deflation
and loss of control.
If the tire pressure is too low or too high, the tires will wear
prematurely and the vehicle will not handle well.
Regularly check tire inflation pressure, at least once a month,
and also especially before a long trip.
Check the pressure in all 4 tires when the tires are still cold.
Never reduce air pressure in warm tires to match cold tire infla-
tion pressure.
NOTICE
Make sure not to jam the tire pressure gauge into the valve
stem. Otherwise you can damage both the tire valves and the tire

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System is configured at the factory
with the correct tire inflation pressure applicable for the vehicle
model, engine and factory-installed tires. The tire inflation pressure
is listed on the tire inflation pressure label on the driver door jamb⇒ ,
Tire inflation pressure. The tire inflation pressures for the road tires
are listed on this label. The inflation pressure for the compact spare
is as specified on the tire pressure label or on a separate label for
the compact spare, if there is one. In the event of a discrepancy be-
tween the above figures and the tire pressures listed on the tire infla-
tion pressure label, the pressures listed on the label are the ones
you should use. The listed pressure applies to all road tires. If differ-
ent tires are installed that do not have the same cold tire inflation
pressure as the tires originally installed on your vehicle, the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System cannot properly monitor tire inflation
pressures unless the TPMS is reset to the new tire pressures
⇒ page 295. Authorized Volkswagen dealers and authorized
Volkswagen Service Facilities have the necessary special tools and
can reset the TPMS for the new tires on your vehicle.
