If you would like to switch between the performance monitor and the lap timer ⇒ Lap timer , touch
one of the arrow buttons on the left and right above the instruments ⇒ Fig. 23  ②.
Selecting instruments and setting units
The display can show a maximum of three instruments at the same time. Each instrument can be
selected for each display area ⇒ Fig. 23  ① (left, middle, right).
To change between instruments, swipe vertically over the display. The currently selected instrument
will then disappear and a new instrument will appear.
The units can be adjusted for some instruments in the Infotainment system ⇒ Vehicle settings
menu .
The following instruments can be displayed:
Charge pressure display: the charge pressure display ⇒ Fig. 23  ① (left) shows the pressure in the
charge air system between the turbocharger and engine (in the unit bar). The further to the right the
needle on the scale, the higher the engine power output.
Accelerometer (G-meter): the accelerometer (G-meter) ⇒ Fig. 23  ① (centre) shows the
acceleration value in the centre (in the unit g). The red marking in the grid-type area shows the
acceleration level and the direction of the acting force (in the opposite direction according to
physical laws). If you drive to the left, for example, the red marking will move in the right area of the
instrument (and vice versa). If you accelerate, the red marking will move down. If you brake, the red
marking will move up. The level of acceleration is indicated by the position of the red marking which
moves outwards. If the acceleration increases, the red marking will move away from the centre area.
Power display: the power display ⇒ Fig. 23  ① (right) shows the current engine power output as a
digital value and on the surrounding scale (in kW).
Coolant temperature display: the needle may move further in a clockwise direction under high
engine loads and with high outside temperatures. This is no cause for concern unless the
indicator lamp in the instrument cluster display is lit up or flashing ⇒ Coolant temperature display .
Oil temperature display: the needle is in the middle area under normal driving conditions. If the
needle is in the bottom left area, this means that the engine has not yet reached its operating
temperature. Avoid excessively high speeds and acceleration when the engine has not yet reached

its operating temperature. The needle may move further in a clockwise direction under high engine
loads and at high outside temperatures. This is no cause for concern unless the indicator lamp
in the instrument cluster display is lit up or flashing ⇒ Engine oil .
Adapting the display areas to the driving situation
Choose the three possible instruments corresponding to your individual driving style and the driving
situation.

WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Operating the Infotainment system can
distract you from the road.

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
The proactive occupant protection system is an assistance system that initiates measures to protect
vehicle occupants in dangerous situations. However, the system cannot prevent a collision.
The full range of functions of the proactive occupant protection system will be available only if the
function has been activated in the Infotainment system, no special driving profile has been selected
and there are no malfunctions ⇒ Driving profile selection and 4MOTION Active Control , ⇒ Function
limitations .
Basic functions
Depending on country-specific legal requirements and also on the vehicle equipment, the following
functions may be initiated, either individually or jointly, in critical situations (e.g. emergency braking
or in the case of oversteering or understeering) as of a speed of approximately 30 km/h (19 mph):
Reversible tensioning of the fastened front seat belts.
Depending on the critical driving situation, the seat belts can be tensioned separately or together.
Additional information for vehicles with an area monitoring system (Front Assist)
In vehicles fitted with the area monitoring system (Front Assist) ⇒ Area monitoring system (Front
Assist) , the probability of a collision with the vehicle ahead is also calculated within the system
limits. The system can trigger the proactive occupant protection system if it detects a probable
collision or initiates strong braking.
Function limitations
The proactive occupant protection system will not be available, or will be available only to a limited
extent, in the following situations:
If there is a fault in the ESC, belt tensioner ⇒ Seat belts  or airbag control unit ⇒ Airbag system .

WARNING
The intelligent technology of the proactive occupant protection system cannot overcome the laws of
physics, and functions only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra convenience afforded
by the proactive occupant protection system tempt you into taking any risks when driving. The
system cannot prevent a collision. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration of the
driver.
Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
The system cannot detect objects in all situations.
The proactive occupant protection system does not react to people, animals, objects crossing in
front of the vehicle, or objects which are hard to detect.

Reflective objects such as safety barriers, tunnel entrances, heavy rain and ice can impair the
performance of the proactive occupant protection system and thus prevent it from detecting a
collision risk.
Incorrect system activation can occur.

WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted.
Never change settings in the Infotainment system when the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING
Failure to observe illuminated warning lamps and text messages can lead to your vehicle breaking
down in traffic, and can cause accidents and serious injury.
Never ignore any illuminated warning lamps or text messages.
Stop the vehicle as soon as possible and when safe to do so.

NOTICE
Failure to observe illuminated indicator lamps and text messages can lead to your vehicle being
damaged.
Airbag system
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Types of front passenger front airbag system 
⇒ Indicator lamp 
⇒ Description and function of the airbags 
⇒ Front airbags 
⇒ Switching the front passenger front airbag on and off 
The vehicle is equipped with a front airbag for the driver and front passenger. The front airbags can
provide front seat occupants with additional chest and head protection if the seat, seat belts, head
restraints and, in the case of the driver, steering wheel are adjusted and used correctly. Airbags are
designed only for additional protection. The airbag system is not a substitute for the seat belts. Seats
belts must always be worn, even when the front seats are equipped with airbags.

Lit up red: system error. Voice service availability is restricted. Volkswagen recommends consulting a
specialist workshop.
Lit up green: voice services are available. System is OK.
Flashing green: active connection to a voice service.
Information call
The information call enables you to call the Volkswagen AG hotline.
The information call function is available only in some sales regions.
The telephone call centre communicates in the language registered for the vehicle in Car-Net.
Breakdown call
The breakdown call allows you to seek professional assistance should your vehicle break down.
Some vehicle data, e.g. the current location, are transmitted parallel to the voice call.
The telephone call centre communicates in the language registered for the vehicle in Car-Net.
Emergency call service
If an emergency call is placed manually, or automatically after an accident where an airbag was
triggered, data relevant for the emergency call, e.g. the current vehicle location, will be transmitted
automatically ⇒ Customer information .
The telephone call centre communicates in the language set up in the vehicle's Infotainment system.
English is used if this language is not available at the location of the emergency.
Back-up to 112 emergency number
In some cases, the emergency call service may be restricted or unavailable so the general emergency
call number 112 will be used to conduct an emergency call. In this case, only a voice-based
connection is established. No data will be transmitted, e.g. regarding the vehicle or its location.
The following circumstances may restrict access to the emergency call service and lead to the call
being forwarded to the 112 emergency number:
Your current emergency call location is in an area with no or insufficient mobile communications and
GPS reception. This can also include tunnels, streets with tall buildings, garages, underpasses,
mountains and valleys.
You are in an area with sufficient mobile communications and GPS reception but the
telecommunications provider's mobile network is not available.
The emergency call service is prohibited by law in some countries.
There is no valid licence for using the emergency call service.
The components in the vehicle required for the emergency call service are damaged or do not have a
sufficient power supply.

Vehicle unlocking is confirmed by all the turn signals flashing twice and locking by the turn signals
flashing once.
