display VOLKSWAGEN CC 2015 Owner´s Manual

Install only radial tires only of the same make, the same dimen-
sions (tread circumference), and similar tread profile on all 4 wheels.
The tread depth of new tires can differ between tire models and
manufacturers because of different design features and tread design.
Replacing tires
Tires should be replaced in pairs and not individually (both front
tires or both rear tires at the same time) ⇒ .
Replace tires only with tires that have the same specifications, in-
cluding width and diameter, load and top speed rating as the tires
approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model.
Never use tires that are larger or wider than the dimensions of the
tires approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model. Larger
tires could scrape and rub on the vehicle body or other parts of the
vehicle.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) considerations
Factory-installed wheels are equipped with a sensor that constantly
monitors tire pressure, then transmits this information to the TPMS ⇒ 
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). If you are going to replace
the wheels, make sure that the new wheels also have sensors that
are compatible with the TPMS on your vehicle. New wheels with sen-
sors have to be recognized and integrated into the system. The new
wheels and sensors are recognized and integrated when driving off
the first time.
If you install wheels that do not have sensors, or have sensors that
are not compatible, the TPMS will not work properly. In this case, the
TPMS will not be able to monitor tire pressure or warn you if pressure
is low. An error message may appear in the instrument cluster display
or the TPMS will switch itself off.
Whenever you change sensors, you have to install new valves and
seals. Please see an authorized Volkswagen dealer of an authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility.
Always drive with the valve caps securely installed. We recom-
mend using factory-supplied valve caps. Ask an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility to
replace lost caps.
If you install new tires that differ the original Volkswagen specifica-
tions, for your vehicle and model, the benchmark tire inflation pres-

ter tire performance decreases with age – independent of the tread
profile depth.
When using winter tires:
Obey state and country-specific legal requirements.
Install winter tires on all 4 wheels.
Use winter tires only under wintry road conditions.
Only use winter tires with dimensions approved for the vehicle.
Use only winter tires of the same tire belt design, the same dimen-
sions (tread circumference), and the same tread design.
Follow speed restrictions according to the winter tire's speed rating
code letter ⇒ .
Speed restrictions
Winter tires are certified up to a top speed identified by speed rating
code letters on the side wall ⇒  Tire labeling.
In some vehicle models it is possible to set a speed warning in the
menu in the instrument cluster display ⇒  Volkswagen Information
System.
Top speed rating and tire inflation pressure for V winter tires depend
on the engine installed in your vehicle. Be sure to ask you authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility about
the maximum permissible speed and the required tire inflation pres-
sure for the winter tires that you plan to use.
WARNING
Driving faster than the maximum speed for which the winter
tires on your vehicle were designed can cause sudden tire fail-
ure including a blowout and sudden deflation, loss of control,
crashes and serious personal injuries.
Winter tires have a maximum speed rating that may be lower
than your vehicle's maximum speed.
Never drive faster than the maximum speed for which the
winter tires installed on your vehicle are rated because tires
that are driven faster than their rated speed can fail suddenly.
Never exceed the maximum load rating for the winter tires
installed on your vehicle.

If the tire is not “flat” and you do not have to change the tire
or wheel immediately, drive at reduced speed to the nearest
service station to check the tire pressure and add air as re-
quired.
When replacing tires or wheel rims on vehicles equipped with
TPMS, always read and heed the information and all WARN-
INGS in the section ⇒  Tires and wheels.
WARNING
Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text mes-
sages can cause the vehicle to break down in traffic and result
in a collision and serious personal injury.
Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.
Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in
vehicle damage.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Fig. 117 Display screen in the instrument cluster: Current tire pres-
sures in psi.

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System uses a pressure sensor in each
wheel. Signals from the sensors are transmitted to the TPMS.
The TPMS checks the tire pressure of all 4 tires while you are driving
and warns if there is a loss of pressure while the vehicle is moving.
Pressure loss that is 25% or more of the benchmark value pro-
grammed into the system is signaled by the indicator light (telltale)
described above, by acoustic warnings, and by text messages in the
instrument cluster display.
If you mount tires of a different size than the factory installed tires, an
authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility can adjust the benchmark TPMS tire pressure to match the
new tires. Without this adjustment, TPMS may not work correctly or at
all.
The tire pressure recommended for the tires originally installed on the
vehicle is on a sticker on the driver door jamb ⇒  Tire inflation pres-
sure.
Display in the instrument cluster
The display in the instrument cluster shows the vehicle with the actual
and benchmark tire pressures of all 4 road wheels ⇒ fig. 117

Spare wheel or compact spare wheel
The spare wheel or compact spare wheel has no tire pressure sen-
sor. When the spare or compact spare wheel is mounted on the vehi-
cle, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicator light will
flash in the instrument cluster display. The TPMS continues to moni-
tor the other 3 wheels.
Tire storage
If the tires do not move for an extended period of time, the sensors
will not transmit tire pressures to the system. This saves sensor bat-
tery life. When the ignition is switched on, the sensors transmit sig-
nals to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
WARNING
Incorrect tire pressure can cause sudden tire failure, loss of
vehicle control and serious personal injury.
Always check and correct air pressure in all 4 tires, particu-
larly after changing, exchanging, or repairing tires.
After that, always make sure that all 4 tires are inflated to the
correct tire pressure for the tires installed on the vehicle.
See the tire pressure label ⇒  Tire inflation pressure and the
Owner's Literature for recommended cold tire inflation pressure
and other important information.
When replacing tires or wheel rims on vehicles equipped with
TPMS, always read and heed all of the information and WARN-
INGS ⇒  Tires and wheels.
NOTICE
The wheel electronics are attached to special aluminum valves
on the wheels. These valves are screwed on rigidly. Never bend
the valves “into position” when checking and adjusting tire
pressure.
Missing tire air valve caps could result in damage to the
valves, as well as to the sensors on the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System. Therefore, make sure your valve caps conform to the
specifications of those originally installed on the vehicle and
that they are always tightly and properly screwed on to the
valves. Do not use metallic valve caps.

The engine switches off automatically.
Engine restart feature
If no authorized remote control vehicle key is identified in the passen-
ger compartment after the engine has been switched off, the engine
can be restarted within about 5 seconds. A related message is shown
in the instrument cluster display.
After the 5 seconds have passed, the engine can no longer be started
without an authorized vehicle key in the passenger compartment.
WARNING
Unintended vehicle movement can cause serious personal inju-
ry.
Do not depress the brake or clutch pedals when switching on
the ignition, as the engine could otherwise start immediately.
WARNING
Improper use of vehicle keys can result in serious personal in-
jury.
Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle.
Children or unauthorized persons may use it to lock the vehi-
cle, start the engine, and operate vehicle systems such as the
power windows, leading to serious personal injury.
Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who can-
not help themselves in the vehicle. The doors can be locked
using the remote control vehicle key. This could result in peo-
ple being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. For example,
depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle
can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
Heat buildup in the passenger and luggage compartment of a
parked vehicle can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are
much higher than the outside temperatures, particularly in
summer. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause
unconsciousness and death, particularly to small children.
If the ignition is switched on or the engine is running and the driv-
er door is opened, a chime sounds. The chime is also a reminder to

indicator light K will blink and a text message will be displayed. To
engage the Automatic Shift Lock (ASL):
On 6-speed transmissions: Depress and then release the brake
pedal. Try to engage the ASL again.
On 7-speed transmissions: First shift into Park (P) or Neutral (N),
and then shift to a drive position.
WARNING
Moving the selector lever to the wrong position can cause loss
of vehicle control, a collision, and serious personal injury.
Never accelerate when moving the selector lever.
When the engine is running and a drive position is engaged,
the vehicle will start to move as soon as the brake pedal is re-
leased.
Never shift into Reverse or Park when the vehicle is moving.
WARNING
Unintended vehicle movement can cause serious personal inju-
ry.
Never get out of the driver's seat while the engine is running,
especially when the transmission is in a drive gear. If you must
leave your vehicle while the engine is running, always set the
electronic parking brake and shift the transmission into Park
(P).
Never leave the vehicle in Neutral (N). It will roll down hills,
whether the engine is running or not.
When the engine is running and a drive gear - Drive (D), Sport
Drive (S), or Reverse (R) - has been selected, press and hold
the brake pedal to keep the vehicle from moving. The vehicle
may “creep” and move forward or backward even if the engine
is idling slowly.
Never shift into Reverse (R) or Park (P) when the vehicle is
moving.
