Setting the warning time

Menu option Meaning
Early The system has a low tolerance level and warns
you early if you come too close to a side marking.
Medium Original setting.
Late The system has a high tolerance level and warns
you late if you come too close to a side marking.

The warning time setting defines the distance from your vehicle to the side markings. An early warning time means that the distance to the side markings has to be high in order for Lane Assist not to trigger a warning.
The time of the warning is also dependent on the approach angle to the side marking and the driving speed. If, for example, you approach a road marking at a steeper angle, the steering wheel will start vibrating at a greater distance.
Setting the vibration level of the steering wheel

Menu option Meaning
Low Light vibration of the steering wheel.

OR: Press the lit-up button  or ∗.
OR: Tap the /03 function key ⇒ fig. 299.

The indicator light in the button  ⇒ fig. 298 comes on and stays on as long as the feature is active.
A chime sounds to tell you that the system is on. If the chime does not sound, PDC is not working. Have the system inspected by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Special considerations when using Park Distance Control
x In some cases, the Park Distance Control system interprets water and ice on the sensors as an obstacle. To prevent automatic PDC activation in these cases, you can turn Park Distance Control off
permanently in the Infotainment System ⇒  Automatic activation in the Infotainment System.
x If the distance remains the same, the warning tone volume decreases after a few seconds. If a continuous tone sounds, its volume remains the same.
x If the vehicle moves away from the obstacle, the beeping sound stops automatically. The beep turns on once more automatically if the vehicle approaches the obstacle again.
x There is no beeping when the transmission is in Park (P) or the electronic parking brake is en-gaged.
x The volume of the audible signals can be adjusted by an authorized Volkswagen dealership or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
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 lasting 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.
