Additional sun visor positions:

Vanity mirror and lighting
A vanity mirror is behind a cover in the sun visor. A light (3) may come on when you slide the cover (2)
open.
The light goes out when you shut the cover or if you flip the sun visor up again.

x If you continue driving closer to an object that the Park Distance Control has already
detected and reported, the object may disappear from the sensor range and may no longer be
detected. This is especially true for low or high objects. The system will no longer sound
warnings about these objects. Ignoring signals from the Park Distance Control system could
result in serious damage to the vehicle.
x The sensors in the bumper can be damaged or become misaligned in low speed impacts
and parking maneuvers. Damaged or misaligned sensors cannot accurately detect or report
objects that might be within range of the PDC system.
x To help make sure that the system works properly, always keep the sensors in the bumpers
clean and free of snow and ice; do not cover the sensors with stickers or other objects.
x When cleaning the sensors with power washers or steam cleaners, only spray the sensors
directly for a very short time, and always keep the washer nozzle at least 4 inches (10 cm) from
the sensors.
x Noise from rough roads, cobblestones, other vehicles and the surrounding area, for
example, can prevent the Park Distance Control system from accurately detecting and
reporting people and objects that may be within range of the system sensors.
Volkswagen recommends practicing with the Park Distance Control system in a location or
parking space with no traffic in order to become familiar with the system and how it works.
