perf
ormance capability of the electric
drive and the current drive power.
Display concept
Using the bar divided in the middle, the pow-
er display continuously shows the availability
of brake energy recuperation

WARNING
The system uses brake energy recuperation
to reduce the v ehicle speed and does not
activate the vehicle brake.
x Be ready to brake at all times if the de-
celeration is not sufficient. Time and date

You can open the
Assist systems menu in the In-
fotainment system using the button for driv- er assist systems. The button for the driver
assist systems is located on the control panel
under the Inf

otainment system.
In the
assist systems menu, you can switch indi-
vidual driver assist systems on and off and al-
so adjust individual settings

x
If there are any objects in the f ootwell,
remove them when the vehicle is
parked. NOTICE
The pedals must be freely operable at all
times. F
or example, a larger brake pedal trav-
el will be necessary in order to stop the vehi-
cle if a brake circuit fails. The brake pedal will
have to be depressed further and harder than
normal. Driving economically
Adopting the right driving style can re-
duce consumption, damage to the en

vi-
ronment, and wear and tear to the elec-
tric drive, brakes and tyres. The follow-
ing section lists a few tips for easing the
strain on the environment and your bank
account.
Think ahead when driving
The range will decrease if you do not adopt
a steady driving style. Keeping a close eye on
the traffic can help to avoid frequent acceler-
ation and braking. Keeping your vehicle at
a sufficient distance from the vehicle in front
can help you to think ahead when driving.
Use energy recovery (recuperation)
The vehicle will “coast” if the Eco assistance
function is deactivated and position D is se-
lected and the accelerator is not pressed.
The vehicle will perform brake energy recu-
peration automatically if the Eco assistance
function is activated and position D is selec-
ted and the accelerator is not pressed. It will
adapt itself to the driving situation and exter-
nal conditions such as vehicles in front and
speed limits. The energy of the rolling vehicle
is used to charge the high-voltage battery

ing effect can be increased by applying
more pressure to the brake pedal.
x You must driv
e particularly carefully
when driving with new brake pads in or-
der to reduce the risk of accidents, seri-
ous injuries and loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
x Never drive too close to other vehicles
when running in new brake pads, and
never create a driving situation that will
place a heavy load on the brakes. Regularly perform a visual check of the
thickness of the front brake pads
through the openings in the rims or from the
underside of the v

ehicle. If necessary, remove
the wheels to carry out a comprehensive
check. Volkswagen recommends using
a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose. When the front brake pads are
checked, the brake pads in the drum
brakes on the rear axle should also be
checked at the same time. This check is per-
f

ormed though an inspection hole on the rear
of the drum. A sealing plug must be removed
for this purpose. Volkswagen recommends
using a Volkswagen dealership for this pur-
pose. Driving a loaded vehicle
F
or good vehicle handling when driving a loa-
ded vehicle, please observe the following:

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

Position engaged and ECO assistance deac-
tiv
ated: no brake energy recuperation.
Position engaged and ECO assistance acti-
v

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.

tion. the vehicle, which can lead to accidents
and serious injuries.
x
Use fast acceleration only if visibility,
weather, road and traffic conditions per-
mit, and other road users are not put at
risk due to the deceleration beha
viour of
the vehicle and driving style.
x Always adjust your driving style in ac-
cordance with the flow of traffic.
x When the TCS is switched off, the drive
wheels may spin, especially if the road
surface is wet, slippery or dirty. This may
result in you no longer being able to
steer or control the vehicle. NOTICE
x If you stop the v
ehicle on a gradient, do
not attempt to stop it from rolling back by
depressing the accelerator when a gear
has been selected. Depress the brake ped-
al to avoid putting an unnecessary load on
the electric drive.

Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC)
Introduction to the topic
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) main-
tains a constant speed that you ha
ve set.
If the vehicle approaches a vehicle in
front, the ACC automatically adapts the
speed so that a distance you have selec-
ted is maintained.
Does the vehicle have ACC?
The vehicle is equipped with ACC if you can
adjust settings for ACC in the Assist systems
menu in the Infotainment system.
Speed range
You can set the speed between 20 km/h
(15 mph) and the maximum speed.
Driving with ACC
You can override the active ACC system at
any time. Cruise control will be stopped if you
brake. If you accelerate, cruise control will be
interrupted while you are accelerating and
then resumed.
The intervention by the ACC system is less
dynamic when towing a trailer.
Driver intervention prompt
If automatic deceleration by the ACC
system is not sufficient or the system
limits have been reached, the ACC
system will request you to also brake
by a corresponding message on the
instrument cluster. In addition, the
red warning lamp lights up and an
acoustic warning is given. Take over
control of the vehicle and be prepared
to brake.
Radar sensor
ACC detects driving situations using a radar
sensor at the front of the vehicle. The range of the radar sensor is up to approximately
160 m (

around 520 ft). Special driving situations
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 151.
Predictiv

e cruise control system
If the vehicle is equipped with the Dynamic
Road Sign Display function and an Infotain-
ment system with navigation, ACC can pre-
dictively adapt the vehicle speed to detected
speed limits and the course of the road ahead

(depending on equipment and not available in
all countries).
Ov
ertaking
If you indicate left (left-hand traffic: indicate
right) to overtake, ACC will accelerate the ve-
hicle and reduce the distance from the vehi-
cle in front. Your set speed will not be excee-
ded.
If ACC does not detect any vehicle in front af-
ter you have changed lane, ACC will acceler-
ate the vehicle up to the set speed.
Overtaking assistance is not available in all
countries.
Stop-and-go traffic
ACC can brake the vehicle to a standstill and
keep it stationary. ACC remains active and
the instrument cluster display shows
ACC ready
to start for a few seconds.
On vehicles with Travel Assist, you can extend
this time by continuing to hold the steering
wheel.
As long as ACC remains active, the vehicle
will move off again automatically as soon as
the vehicle in front moves off (depending on
the vehicle equipment level and not available
in all countries).

Advance warning
The system detects a possible colli-
sion and prepares the vehicle for pos-
sible emergency braking.
An acoustic warning sounds and the red
warning lamp lights up. Brake or take avoid-
ing action.
Urgent warning
If the driver does not react to the advance
warning, the system may initiate a short
braking jolt in order to draw attention to the
increasing collision risk. Brake or take avoid-
ing action.
Automatic braking
If the driver also does not react to the urgent
warning, the vehicle can be braked automati- cally with braking force that increases in sev-
eral stages. The reduced speed means that it
is possible to minimise the consequences of
an accident.
Braking interv
ention
If the system detects that the driver is brak-
ing insufficiently when there is a risk of colli-
sion, the system can increase the braking
force and help prevent a collision. The brak-
ing intervention takes place only for as long
as the brake pedal is pressed hard.
Distance warning
The system detects when safety
is endangered by driving too
close to the vehicle in front. The indi-
cator lamp lights up. Increase the dis-
tance.
Speed range: around 65 km/h (around
40 mph) to around 250 km/h (around
155 mph). Area monitoring system 161
