graphically in the rev counter. In the speedometer, the symbol is shown if the current
driving style is fuel-efficient, and a graphic display helps the driver save fuel.
•Navigation. If route guidance is active: the remaining distance to the set destination and an
estimated time of arrival are shown in the rev counter, and arrows to aid navigation are shown
in the speedometer. If route guidance is inactive: the current altitude is shown in the rev
counter, and a compass is shown in the speedometer.
•Driver assistance. Graphic representation of various driver assist systems, or digital display of

switch between map sizes as required.
•OR: press the or arrow button on the multifunction steering wheel to select the
required map size. A frame appears around the selected option.
•Confirm the selection by pressing the button on the multifunction steering wheel.
Depending on the equipment level, navigation is shown on two displays or only one. The navigation
map be displayed on the Active Info Display and Infotainment system or only on the Infotainment
system display. In the latter case, only navigation arrows are shown on the Active Info Display.
Changing up a gear early will help to save fuel and reduce engine noise.

Trailer drawbar load display
If the vehicle drives with a trailer attached (depends on equipment and not available in all marketsyf
the drawbar load and the trailer weight can be shown in the instrument cluster display.
Different instrument clusters are available, which means that the versions and displays may
vary. In displays without warning or information texts, faults are indicated exclusively by indicator
lamps.
Some displays in the instrument cluster may be overridden by sudden alerts, e.g. incoming
telephone calls.
Depending on the vehicle equipment level, some settings and displays may also appear in
the Infotainment system.
If several warning reports are detected, the symbols will appear for several seconds, one
after another. The symbols will continue to appear until the faults are rectified.
If warning messages about malfunctions are displayed when the ignition is switched on, it
may not be possible to adjust some settings as described, or the information display may appear
differently. If this is the case, take the vehicle to a qualified workshop to have the malfunction
rectified.
Instrument cluster menus
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The range of content and layout of the menus and displays depend on the vehicle electronics and
the level of vehicle equipment.
Qualified workshops can programme and modify other functions depending on the vehicle
equipment level. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The Driver Alert System informs the
driver if their driving shows signs of
tiredness.
Fig. 18 On the instrument cluster display: Driver Alert System.
Function and operation
The Driver Alert System determines the driving behaviour at the beginning of a journey and uses it
to evaluate the tiredness of the driver. This is compared to the behaviour of the driver while actually
driving. If the system detects that the driver may be tired, an acoustic warning signal will sound and
a message will appear in the instrument cluster display ⇒ Fig. 18. The message in the instrument
cluster display is displayed for about five seconds and may be repeated once. The last displayed
message is saved by the system.
The message on the instrument cluster display can be switched off by pressing the
button on the wiper lever or the button on the multifunction steering
wheel ⇒ Instrument cluster operation. The message can be displayed again on the instrument
cluster display using the multifunction display ⇒ Warning and information messages.
Functional limitations
The driving behaviour can be evaluated only when the speed is above 60 km/h (37 mphyf X S W R
approximately 200 km/h (125 mphyf .
