Function key
Warning time setting : After touching the Warning time setting or z func-
tion key, you can choose between early, medium and late.
Steering wheel vibration : After touching the Steering wheel vibration or z
function key, you can choose between low, medium and strong.

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.

Rear Assist camera settings
Different setting such as Brightness, Contrast and Color can be adjusted by tapping the function keys - or + or moving the slider.
In order to change the settings follow these instructions:
x Park the vehicle in a safe place on a firm, level surface.

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.

Operation via the Infotainment System

Fig. 302 Infotainment System: Front climate control settings.

The air recirculation mode helps prevent outside air from entering the vehicle interior.
In very hot or cold outside temperatures, temporarily switch to manual air recirculation in order to cool or heat the vehicle interior faster.
For safety reasons, air recirculation is switched off if you push the  button ⇒ .
Switching air recirculation on and off manually
Switching on: Press the 3 button repeatedly until the indicator light in the button comes on.
Switching off: Press the 3 button repeatedly until the indicator light in the button goes out.
Switching air recirculation on and off automatically
x Press the CLIMATE Infotainment button.
x Tap the Extras function key.
x Switch automatic air recirculation on or off by tapping the Automatic air recirculation function key.
If the check box in the function key is checked =, automatic air recirculation is switched on.
What automatic air recirculation does
In automatic air recirculation mode, fresh air will enter the passenger compartment. If the system detects an increased concentration of pollutants in the outside air, it automatically switches to air recirculation. As soon as the pollutant level is back in the normal range, air recirculation is switched off.
Unpleasant odors cannot be detected by the system.
To keep the windows from fogging up, automatic air recirculation is not switched on automatically in certain circumstances.
WARNING
Stale air causes driver fatigue and reduces driver alertness, which can cause accidents, colli-sions and serious personal injury.
x Never use air recirculation mode over an extended period of time, since no fresh air will enter the passenger compartment.
x When the air conditioner is off and recirculation mode is on, condensation can quickly form on the windows and greatly reduce visibility.
x Always switch off recirculation mode when it is not needed.
NOTICE
Do not smoke when air recirculation is switched on. Smoke drawn into the ventilation system can leave residue on the evaporator and on the dust and pollen active carbon filter, resulting in permanent odors whenever the air conditioner is switched on.
When backing up and while the automatic wiper/washer is operating, air recirculation is briefly activated to avoid unpleasant odors in the passenger compartment. This feature only works if automat-
ic air recirculation is enabled ⇒  Switching air recirculation on and off automatically.
Heated steering wheel

The heated steering wheel function only works when the engine is running or is drive-ready (hybrid).
The steering wheel gets heated to about 77 °F (+25 °C) and holds the temperature there.
Switching the heated steering wheel function on and off
x Press the \b button in the upper center console.
x OR: Press the buttonCLIMATE on the infotainment screen and the touch the \b button to switch on or off.
Automatic deactivation
The heated steering wheel function switches off automatically, if:
x The engine is switched off.
x When the overall energy consumption is too high, like when too many devices and functions are activated in the vehicle.
x The heated steering wheel system malfunctions.
WARNING
Certain medical conditions, such as paralysis and diabetes, and certain medications can increase the risk of serious burns when the heated steering wheel function is switched on.
x Never use the heated steering wheel function if you or your passengers are at risk of be-ing burned because of a medical condition. Take regular breaks and get out of the vehicle, particularly on long trips. Consult your doctor for advice regarding your specific condition.
