The ParkPilot assists the driver when manoeuvring
and parking . If the vehicle is approaching an obsta
cle located in the range of the ultrasound sensors ,
an intermittent acoustic warning is sounded , de
pending on the distance . The shorter the distance ,
the shorter the intervals . The acoustic warning will
sound continuously if the obstacle is very close .
The ultrasound sensors in the bumpers transmit
and receive ultrasound waves. The system uses
the time difference between the ultrason ic waves
(i.e. between the transmission and reflection from
obstacles and the point of reception) to continu
ously calculate the distance between the bumper
and the obstacle.

A WARNING
The ParkPilot cannot replace the full concen
tration of the driver.
• Unintentional vehicle movements can
cause serious injury.
• Always adapt your speed and driving style
to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic con
ditions.
• Ultrasound sensors have blind spots in
Which obstacles and people cannot be detec
ted '--.
A WARNING (Continued) ~-
• Always monitor the area around the vehi
cle as the ultrasound sensors will not always
detect infants, animals and objects.
• Certain surfaces of objects and clothes
cannot reflect the signals from the ultrasound
sensors. The system is unable to detect
these objects or people wearing this type of
clothing, or they may be detected incorrectly.
• External sources of sound can affect the
signals of the ultrasound sensors. In certain
circumstances, the system may not recog
nise people or objects.
A WARNING ~-.
Automatic activation of the ParkPilot only oc
curs at very low speeds. An inappropriate
driving style can cause accidents and serious
injuries.
• Always bear in mind the time delay be
tween the signals.
• The ultrasound sensors may not always be
able to detect objects such as trailer drawbars,
thin rails, fences, posts, trees and open or
opening tailgates. This can result in damage to
your vehicle.
• If the ParkPilot has detected an obstacle
and issued a warning, the obstacle may move
out of the detection range of the sensors as the
vehicle approaches it, particularly if the object
is very high or very low. These objects are no
longer registered.
• The vehicle can sustain considerable dam
age if the warning given by the ParkPilot is ig
nored.
• The ultrasound sensors in the bumper can
be displaced or damaged through impacts, e.g.
when parking.
• The ultrasound sensors in the bumpers
must be kept clean and free of ice and snow
and not be covered up by stickers or other
items, as these may prevent the system from
working properly.

A WARNING
Using cameras to estimate the distance from
obstacles (persons, vehicle etc. ) is inaccurate
and can cause accidents and severe injuries.
• The camera lens enlarges and distorts the
field of vision and makes objects on the
screen appear to be different and imprecise.
• Certain objects, for example narrow posts
or grids , may be difficult or impossible to see
on the screen because of its low resolution or
poor light conditions.
• The camera has blind spots within which
obstacles and people cannot be detected.
• Keep the camera lens clean, free of snow
and ice and do not cover it.
A WARNING
~------------~--------~~~------~ The technology of the Rear Assist system
cannot overcome the laws of physics or sys
tem-related vehicle limitations. Careless or
unintentional use of the Rear Assist system
can cause accidents and severe injuries. The
system is not a substitute for the full concen
tration of the driver.
• Adapt your speed and driving style to suit
visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
• Keep looking to check the direction in
which you are parking and the relevant area
around the vehicle. The front of the vehicle
swings out more than the rear of the vehicle.
•
Do not allow the images shown on the
screen to distract you from the traffic around
you.
• Always monitor the area around the vehi
cle as the cameras will not always detect in
fants, animals and objects.
• The system may not be able to d isplay all
areas clearly.
• The Rear Assist system should only be
used when the tailgate is fully closed.
• The camera only shows two-dimensional
images on the screen. The lack of depth of field
means that recesses and protruding objects on
the ground may only be detected with difficulty,
or may not be detected at all.
• The camera may not always be able to de
tect objects such as thin rails, fences, posts,
trees etc. This can result in damage to your ve
hicle.

ss is t s y ste m should not be used in the following situations:
-If the rear of the ve hi cle is heavily loaded.
-If tl'e driv er is no t famili a r with the sy s tem .
-If the pos ition or angl e of the cam era has changed, e.g . following a rear-end collision. The system
sh ould be checked by a qualifi ed workshop.
2) Optica l deception by the camera :
The Rear Ass is t r eve rs ing camera only supplies two-dimen sional image s. Due to the lack of depth of field
on the sc ree n, potho les and dips in the ground , protruding parts on another ve hicle or protruding objects
on the gro und may be difficult or impossible to see on the image .
Objects or other ve hicles m ay appear closer or further away on the screen than they actually are.
-If you d rive from a le ve l surface onto an upward or downward slope.
-If you drive from an upward or downward slope onto a level surface .
-If the rear of th e ve hi cle is hea vily loaded .
-
Whe n app roac hing protruding objects. Su ch obje cts can leave the camera 's field of vision while you are
r e ve rs
ing.
Cleaning the camera lens
Keep the cam era le ns clean and free of ice and
s n o w :
• Switch o n the ignition .
• Switch on the electronic parking brake.
• Selec t re ve rse gea r.
• Moisten the le ns with a commercially available
alcohol- b ase d glass clea ner and clean the le ns
with a dry clot h ~CD.
• Remove snow with a brush .
• Remove ice with a de -ice r spray ~CD.
• Never use an abrasive cleaning product to
clean the lens.
•
Never use warm or hot water to remove
snow and ice from the lens of the camera . The
lens could otherwise be damaged.
m lt is not possible to open the tailgate if the
W V olkswagen badge is folded out.
m Volkswagen reco mmends that you practise
W parking with the rear assist system in a traf
fic-calmed area or car park with good vision and
we ather conditions .
In this way you can become
familiar with the system and the orientation lines in
a safer environment.
m The rear assist system cannot be switched

..._A W ARN ING
D o not le t the extra convenience afforded by
the Park Assist system tempt you into taking
any risks when driving-this can cause acci
dents. The system is not a substitute for the
full concentration of the driver.
• Un intentional vehicle movements can
cause serious injury.
A WARNING (Continuec;f) -
• Always adapt your speed and driving style
to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic con
ditions.
• The surface of certain objects, including
clothing, as well as external noise sources do
not reflect the signals from the Park Assist
system or the parking distance warning sen
sors or can cause the system to fail to detect
objects or persons.
• Sensors have blind spots in which obsta
cles and people cannot be detected.
• Always monitor the area around the vehi
cle as the sensors will not always detect in
fants, animals and objects.
..
A WARNING .. p k
When driving into or out of a parking space
using the Park Assist system, the steering
wheel will automatically make quick turning
movements. You could be injured if you at
tempt to touch the steering wheel spokes.
• The Park Assist system uses parked vehi
cles, the kerb and other objects as guidance.
Please ensure that the wheels and tyres are not
damaged when parking the vehicle. If necessa
ry, stop the parking procedure in good time to
prevent damage to the vehicle.
• The sensors may not always be able to de
tect objects such as trailer drawbars, thin rails,
fences, posts, trees and open or opening tail
gates. This can result in damage to your vehi
cle.
•
If the ParkPilot has detected an obstacle
and issued a warning, the obstacle may move
out of the detection range of the sensors as the
vehicle approaches it, particularly if the object
is very high or very low. These objects are no
longer registered. The vehicle can sustain con
siderable damage if the warning given by the
ParkPilot is ignored. The same applies to the
Park Assist system, for example when parking
behind a lorry o r a motorbike. Therefore, al
ways check the space in front of and behind
the vehicle and stop the vehicle in good time if
necessary.
