Rear view camera system (Rear View) ⇒ Rear view camera system (Rear View) .
Park Assist ⇒ Park Assist .
The available systems vary according to the vehicle equipment level.
Limits of the parking systems
The sensors or cameras may not always be able to detect objects such as thin rails, fences, posts,
trees, very low or high obstacles and open or opening boot lids.
In some cases, dirt and ice on the sensors or cameras could be registered as an obstacle.
Limits of the rear view camera system
The rear view camera system shows only two-dimensional images on the screen. The lack of depth
of field means that potholes and protruding objects on the ground may only be detected with
difficulty, or may not be detected at all.
The system displays the orientation lines irrespective of the area surrounding the vehicle. There is no
automatic obstacle detection. Drivers must judge for themselves whether the vehicle will fit into the
parking space.

WARNING
The intelligent technology used in the parking systems cannot overcome the laws of physics, and
functions only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra convenience afforded by the
parking systems tempt you into taking any risks when driving. The parking systems cannot replace
the full concentration of the driver.
Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
Unintentional vehicle movements can cause serious injury.
Keep looking in the direction in which you are parking and at the relevant area surrounding the
vehicle.
Do not allow the displays in the instrument cluster and the images shown in the Infotainment
system to distract you from the traffic.
Always monitor the area around the vehicle as the parking systems will not always detect infants,
animals and objects.
The parking systems have blind spots in which obstacles and people are not registered.
External sources of sound and certain surfaces on objects and clothing may influence the signals of
the sensors. In certain circumstances, the systems will be unable to detect or properly detect people
and objects.
Certain objects, for example narrow posts or railings, may be difficult or impossible to see on the
screen because of its resolution or poor light conditions.

When approaching objects at high speeds, the signals and displays of the parking systems may not
respond quickly enough to issue a warning.

Volkswagen recommends that drivers practise using the parking systems in a traffic-calmed area or
car park to allow them to familiarise themselves with the systems and their functions.
Park Distance Control
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Switching on and off 
⇒ Display representation 
⇒ Troubleshooting 
The Park Distance Control system assists the driver when manoeuvring and parking.
Park Distance Control detects the distance from an obstacle by means of sensors in the front and
rear areas of the vehicle. If there is an obstacle in the detection range of the sensors, the system
indicates this on the Infotainment system and by means of signal tones.
Settings
With some equipment levels, settings for Park Distance Control can be made in the Infotainment
system ⇒ Infotainment system controls and displays .
You can save some settings in the user accounts of the personalisation function. The settings change
automatically when the user account is changed ⇒ Personalisation .
Switching on and off

equipment).
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
Switching on Park Distance Control
Press the button.

Park Distance Control is switched on automatically when reverse gear is engaged or if the vehicle
rolls backwards.
With some equipment levels, Park Distance Control can also be activated automatically when driving
forwards ⇒ Automatic activation when driving forwards (with some equipment levels) .
Switching off Park Distance Control
Press the button.
Park Distance Control is switched off automatically when the vehicle is driven forwards at a speed of
more than 10–15 km/h (6–9 mph.
OR: the selector lever is moved to P position.
Automatic activation when driving forwards (with some equipment levels)
Park Distance Control also switches itself on automatically if the vehicle approaches an obstacle in
the front area of the vehicle when driving forwards at a speed of less than 15 km/h (9 mph).
Automatic activation can be switched on in the Infotainment system.
Automatic activation takes place only once. Renewed automatic activation is possible under the
following conditions:
Press the button.
Switch the ignition off and then back on again.
Manoeuvre braking
If the vehicle is equipped with manoeuvre braking, the manoeuvre braking function triggers
emergency braking as soon as an obstacle is detected while reversing.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the manoeuvre braking function can also trigger emergency
braking when driving forwards.
The manoeuvre braking function helps to prevent collisions. The vehicle speed must not be higher
than 10 km/h (6 mph). The manoeuvre braking function is activated or deactivated when Park
Distance Control is switched on or off. The manoeuvre braking function is inactive for five metres
after a braking operation in the same direction of travel. The manoeuvre braking function is ready
for braking again after changing gear or position. The same restrictions apply as to Park Distance
Control.
Manoeuvre braking is not active if Park Distance Control was activated automatically.
Touch the function button in the Infotainment system to switch manoeuvre braking on and off.

your Volkswagen dealership.
Rear view camera system (Rear View)
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Switching on and off 
⇒ Display representation 
⇒ Prerequisites 
⇒ Parking 
⇒ Troubleshooting 
The rear view camera system in the rear of the vehicle makes it easier for the driver to see behind
the vehicle and provides support for parking manoeuvres.
The rear view camera system shows the area behind the vehicle on the Infotainment system screen.
Depending on the operating mode, orientation lines support the view to the rear.

WARNING
Using images from the camera to estimate the distance from obstacles (people, vehicles etc.) is
inaccurate and could cause accidents and severe injuries.
Camera lenses enlarge and distort the field of vision and show objects differently and inaccurately
on the screen.

The vehicle is damaged in the area around the camera, e.g. caused by parking collisions.

Automatic braking intervention to minimise damage
In some countries, Park Assist can assist the driver with an automatic braking intervention in certain
situations ⇒ .
Depending on the vehicle equipment and certain conditions, e.g. weather, load or inclination of the
vehicle, Park Assist can automatically brake the vehicle before an obstacle. Following this
intervention, the driver must depress the brake pedal.
The parking manoeuvre is ended if an automatic braking intervention occurs.

Function

When accelerating on a slippery surface, for example on ice and snow, accelerate carefully. The
wheels can spin even when brake support systems are active, and this can lead to a loss of control of
the vehicle.

WARNING
The effectiveness of ESC can be reduced considerably if other components and systems which affect
driving dynamics are not serviced properly or are not functioning properly. This also applies, but not
exclusively, to the brakes, tyres and other named systems.
Please always bear in mind that modifications and changes to the vehicle can affect the way brake
support systems operate.
Alterations to the suspension or the use of non-approved wheel and tyre combinations can affect
the function of brake support systems and reduce their effectiveness.
Suitable tyres support the effectiveness of ESC.

WARNING
Driving without the brake servo can considerably increase the braking distance and thus cause
accidents and serious injuries.
Never switch the engine or ignition off while the vehicle is in motion.
If the brake servo does not function or the vehicle is being towed, the brake pedal will have to be
depressed more forcefully as the braking distance will be increased due to the lack of assistance for
the brake system.
Switching the TCS on and off
Switch off the traction control system (TCS) if the vehicle does not have sufficient traction:
When driving in deep snow or on loose surfaces.
When rocking the vehicle free if it is stuck.
Then switch on TCS again.
Switching TCS on and off
TCS can be switched off and on in the Infotainment system ⇒ Infotainment system controls and
displays .
When the TCS is switched off, the yellow indicator lamp lights up on the instrument cluster
display.
As soon as the TCS starts regulating, the indicator lamp flashes yellow.
Troubleshooting

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Stowage compartment on the front passenger side 
⇒ Stowage compartment in the front centre armrest 
⇒ Drawers 
⇒ Coat and bag hooks 
Stow only light and small objects in the stowage areas.
There is a stowage compartment for the vehicle wallet under the left front seat. Always keep the
vehicle wallet in this stowage compartment.
The USB socket and the function for wireless charging in accordance with the QI standard
⇒BookletInfotainment system, may be located in the stowage compartment in the lower part of the
centre console.

WARNING
Loose objects may be flung through the vehicle interior in the event of a sudden driving or braking
manoeuvre. This can cause serious injury and can also lead to loss of control of the vehicle.
Do not stow any pets or any hard, heavy or sharp objects in the vehicle's open stowage
compartments, on the dash panel, on the luggage compartment cover or in items of clothing and
bags in the vehicle interior.
Always keep stowage compartments closed while the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING
Objects in the driver footwell can interfere with pedal operation. This can lead to loss of control of
the vehicle and increase the risk of serious injury.
Ensure that all pedals can always be operated without any hindrance.
The floor mats must always be properly secured in the footwell.
No additional foot mats or other floor coverings should be placed over the fitted foot mat.
Ensure that no objects can enter the driver footwell while the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING
Cigarette lighters left in the vehicle can become damaged or may ignite unnoticed. This can cause
serious burns and vehicle damage.

Before adjusting the seats, always ensure that there is no cigarette lighter on or near the moveable
parts of the seat.
Before closing stowage areas or compartments always ensure that there is no lighter in the way.
Never stow lighters in stowage areas or compartments or on other surfaces in the vehicle. Cigarette
lighters may self-ignite as a result of high surface temperatures, particularly in summer.

NOTICE
The heating elements in the rear window can be destroyed by objects rubbing against them.
Do not stow any temperature-sensitive objects, food or medicines inside the vehicle. Hot and cold
temperatures could damage them or render them unusable.
Objects stored in the vehicle that are made from transparent materials, such as glasses, magnifying
glasses or transparent suction cups on the windows, can concentrate the sun's rays and thus cause
damage to the vehicle.

Always ensure that the ventilation openings between the rear window and the stowage area are
uncovered to allow stale air to escape from the vehicle.
