Automatic activation
When the PDC is activated automatically, a mini PDC display will appear 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 activated and deactivated in the Infotainment system menu.
Automatic activation with mini PDC display can be activated and deactivated in the Infotainment
system ⇒ Infotainment system.
When automatic activation is activated, signal chimes are sounded 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.

x Prevent any factory-installed parts from functioning fully if they are installed into other vehicles (for example, after theft),
x Prevent full function of components outside of the vehicle,
x Allow legitimate installation or exchange of parts and control units by a professional should they require service.
