This will also occur to a certain extent when
the v
ehicle is rolling to stop when in overrun
mode or travelling downhill.
The higher the charge level of the high-volt-
age battery, the lower the recuperation and
thus also the engine braking effect. No brake
energy recuperation occurs and therefore no
engine braking effect is available once the
high-voltage battery is fully charged

ated: automatic brake energy recuperation.
The energy recovery level is selected auto-
matically depending on the navigation data
and traffic situation.
Position engaged: high brake energy recu-
peration
The v

ehicle also performs recuperation when
the brake pedal is pressed.
Eco assistance
The ECO assistance function helps the driver
to use the engine braking effect of the vehi-
cle efficiently. It selects the energy recovery
level depending on the navigation data and
traffic situation.
The ECO assistance function can be switched
on and off in the vehicle settings in the Info-
tainment system.
Driving down hills
When driving down hills, you should drive in
position B if possible.
Never allow the vehicle to roll down moun-
tains or hills in the neutral position N. Troubleshooting
Deactivation of the drive is imminent
The charge level of the high-voltage battery
is too low.

Introduction to the topic
The factory-fitted central control unit sup-
ports the system update function. This allows
the software of almost all control units to be
updated by V

olkswagen AG without the need
to visit a qualified workshop:
If a system update is available for your vehi-
cle, a corresponding message will be dis-
played on the Infotainment system.
System updates are downloaded via the fac-
tory-fitted control unit with eSIM card (OCU)
and are free of charge. Volkswagen pays the
connection costs.
The system update function is only available
in some countries. A measure such as engine tuning to in-
crease perf

ormance or efficiency that
has not been performed by Volkswagen may
be deleted by a system update. Overview
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 196.
A

vailability of a system update
The switched-on Infotainment system indi-
cates that a system update is available. A sys-
tem update takes place in two phases:

Never use the wrong service fluid. Failure
to observe this warning can result in seri-

could cause damage.
x If a large amount of coolant has been lost,
do not refill the coolant until the engine
has cooled completely. Hea
vy coolant loss
is an indication of leaks in the cooling sys-
tem. The cooling system should be
checked by a qualified workshop as soon
as possible. Failure to do so can result in
engine damage.
x Do not refill coolant if there is no more
coolant in the coolant expansion tank. Air
could have entered the cooling system. Do
not drive on! Seek expert assistance. Fail-
ure to do so can result in engine damage.
x When refilling service fluids, please ensure
that you pour the correct service fluids in-
to the correct openings. The use of incor-
rect service fluids can result in serious
malfunctions and damage to the electric
drive. Troubleshooting
