Enabling the charging process
After a successful self-test, press the button (1) to set the protection unit to ready and enable the charging process. The LED in the protection unit symbol (2) lights up green.
Ending the charging process
If you want to interrupt the high-voltage battery charging process before charging is completed, the charging process must be interrupted or ended on the vehicle
Checking the Ground Fault Circuit (GFI) of the 110 Volt outlet
The GFI should be checked once a month. Carry out this procedure with the charging cable connected to the 110 Volt outlet and the vehicle. The charging process has to be deactivated:
x Press the test button (3) on the control unit of the charging cable for at about 3 seconds.
x If the test was successful, the warning lights (1) and (2) will light up. Should these warning lights not light up or other lights should light up or flash, an error occurred while testing.
x After a successful test and if error occurred, you can start the charging process by pressing the rest button (6) for at least 3 seconds.

Key to diagram ⇒ fig. 144:
Meaning
— Horizontal red line: Safety distance (area up to about 16 inches
(40 cm) behind the vehicle on the road).
(1) Road.
(2) Selected parking space.
(3) Side lines of the selected parking space.
(4) Rear boundary of the parking space, such as a curb.

All references to orientation line length apply to vehicles on a horizontal surface.
Parking using the Rear View Camera system

Step Action:
1. The requirements for parking and maneuvering with the Rear
View Camera system must be fulfilled
2. Position the vehicle in front of the parking space (2) ⇒ fig. 144 A.
3. Shift into Reverse (R).
4. Reverse slowly and steer the vehicle B so that the lateral green
orientation lines lead into the parking space (2).
Pay attention to the message in the display: Look! Safe to

5. Align the vehicle in the parking space B so that the green orienta-
tion lines are parallel with the parking space (3).
6. Stop the vehicle C before (or at the very latest, when) the horizon-
tal red line reaches the rear boundary, for example, a curb (4).

The intermittent and permanent signal chimes given by the front PDC sensors are of a higher pitch than those given by the rear PDC sensors. This is a standard feature.

The indicator light in the  button ⇒ fig. 146 lights up and stays on as long as the feature is active.
Automatic activation
When the PDC is activated automatically, a mini PDC display appears on the left-hand side of the
screen ⇒ fig. 148.
Automatic activation of the PDC when driving slowly towards an obstacle located in front of the vehicle only works when the speed falls below about 6–9 mph (10–15 km/h) for the first time. If the PDC was switched off using the  button, performing one of the following actions with the ignition switched on can automatically reactivate the PDC:
x If the vehicle accelerates to a speed greater than 6–9 mph (10–15 km/h) and then drops below that speed again.
x OR: If the selector lever is moved to Park (P) and then out of that position again.
x OR: If automatic activation is turned off and on again in the Infotainment system.
Automatic activation of the mini PDC display can be turned on or off in the Infotainment system ⇒  Infotainment system.
When the box in the automatic activation function key is checked =, signal chimes sound from a distance of about 20 inches (50 cm) from the obstacle.
WARNING
Never rely completely on the PDC for information about people and objects that might be in the way of the vehicle and could be struck by the vehicle causing serious personal injury.
x The PDC sensors have blind spots where they cannot detect people or objects.
x Always watch for people, especially small children and animals, because the sensors may not always be able to detect them.
If you hear a long beep of about 3 seconds when you first turn PDC on or the indicator light in the button starts blinking, this means there is a malfunction in the Park Distance Control system. Switch off the Park Distance Control system with the button and have it immediately checked by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
