You can mute the PDC beeping signals by tapping the  function key on the Radio or Navigation system screen. Tap the function key again to reactivate the acoustic signals.
Muting is cancelled by switching Park Distance Control back on after it was switched off. The warning messages cannot be switched off.
If the display has been switched off manually and PDC remains active, the mute setting is also can-celled.

WARNING
Never rely completely on the OPS 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 OPS sensors have blind spots where they cannot detect persons or objects.
x Never pay so much attention to the OPS and the graphics shown on the screen that you fail to notice what is going on around you.
x Always watch for people, especially small children and animals, because the sensors may not always be able to detect them.
NOTICE
Automatic activation of OPS when approaching an obstacle works only when your speed falls below a threshold of about 5 - 10 mph (10 - 15 km/h). If you then close the display, you must either switch the ignition off and back on or exceed the speed threshold and then reduce speed to under the threshold a second time in order for it to activate automatically again.
Volkswagen recommends practice parking with Park Distance Control and the Optical Parking System on a parking lot or other place where there is little traffic to get used to how the system works.

Therefore we strongly recommend that you use your cellular telephone in your vehicle only when it is properly attached to an appropriate cradle mounted on a base plate on the instrument panel.
Because of the large number and variety of cellular telephones on the market and the frequency with which new models are introduced, Volkswagen does not offer cradles for cellular telephones. Please check with the manufacturer of the cellular telephone that you plan to use.
WARNING
A mobile phone on the seat, instrument panel or in other places can be thrown around the inside of the vehicle during a sudden braking maneuver, a crash or other accident and injure vehicle occupants.
x Never place or attach accessories or other objects (such as cup holders, telephone brack-ets, note pads, navigation systems, large, heavy or bulky objects) on the doors, on the wind-shield, over or near the area marked “AIRBAG” on the steering wheel, instrument panel, backrests or between these areas and the occupant. Such objects could cause serious injury in a collision, especially if an airbag inflates.
WARNING
Using a mobile phone or CB radio inside the vehicle without a properly installed and separate outside antenna can be dangerous to your health and that of your passengers because the electromagnetic radiation energy that mobile phones and CB radios emit may be above es-tablished limits. This also applies if the outside antenna is not installed properly.
x Always keep the mobile phone antenna at least 8 inches (20 cm) away from pacemakers. Heart specialists advise that mobile phones can adversely affect the way of pacemakers work.
x Never carry a mobile phone that is switched on in the breast pocket directly over the pacemaker.
x If you suspect there may be interference with a pacemaker or other medical device, switch the mobile phone off immediately.

x Replacement parts may not be readily available.
x DVD navigation systems for vehicles built for the United States and Canada will not necessarily work in Europe, and may not work in other countries outside of North America.
NOTICE
Volkswagen is not responsible for mechanical damage that may result from substandard fuel or service or the unavailability of Genuine Volkswagen parts.
x Volkswagen is not responsible if the vehicle does not meet the respective legal require-ments in other countries and continents.
