T
e Park Ass ist system has certa in system-rela ted
limitations and th e driver should be particularly
carefully when using the Park Assist system => 4::,..
One element of the Park Assi st system is the Park­
Pilo~ which is des igned to provide assist an ce
when parkin g.
In vehicles w ith ParkP ilot optical display the scan ­
ned area to the front , rear and to the sides of the
vehicle will be shown on the screen of the radio or

by the sys tem , the pos it ion of obstacles w ill be

..._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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Possible radar sensor function impairments
The adaptive cruise control will switch off tempora­
rily if th e radar sensor function is impaired , e .g .
due to heavy rain, spray , snow, ice or mud . A cor­
responding message will appear in the instrument
clu ster display .
Clean the radar sensors as re­
quired .
The adaptive cruise control will automatically be
available again as soon as the radar sensors are
no longer impaired . The message in the instrument
cluster display goes out, and the adaptive cruise
control can be reactivated .
~trong. reflected radiation of the radar signal , e.g.
1n mult1-storey car parks , can impair the function of
the radar sensor .
Towing a trailer
The adaptive cruise control operates with reduced
dynamics when the
vehicle is towing a trailer .
Overheated brakes
If the brak~s. overheat , e .g . following heavy braking
or when
dnv1ng down steep inclines for long peri­
ods , the
ada~tive cruise control may be deactiva­
ted
t~mpor~nly. A correspond ing message will ap­
p e ar
.m the tns~rument cluster display. lt is then not
poss1ble to act1vate the adaptive cruise control.
As soon as the temperature of the brakes has de­
creased sufficiently , the adaptive cruise control can
be activated again. The message in the instrument
cluster
display goes out. If the message ACC not
ava i 1 ab 1 e does not go out for a long time, there
is a fault. Proceed to a qualified workshop. Volks­
wagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealer­
ship for this purpose.
.,. . ..,,
... -,
If the message ACC ready for start ap·
pears
in the instrument cluster display and
th_e vehicle in front moves off, your vehicle
w1ll move off automatically. In some cases
the radar
sensor may be unable to detect ob·
st~cles that are located in the vehicle's path.
Th1s can result in serious injury and acci·
dents.
l
• Always check the road ahead before the
veh~cle pulls away. If necessary, cancel the
pulling away procedure by depressing the
brake
pedal.

Steering
In Sport mode, power steerin~ is r~duced and the
effort required to stee r the vehicle mcreases. The
vehicle's driving response becomes more agile.
Powertrain (engine and gearbox)
The engine and gearbox will give either a more dy­
namic or more balanced response to the move­
ment of the accelerato r, depending on th e selec ted
driving mode . In vehicles with an automatic gear­
box, the gear shift po ints and the coasting mode
will also change . An active cruise contro l sys tem
(CCS) can affec t the acceleration response.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
When the ACC is active, accele ratio n and deceler­
ation of the vehicle becomes more ecological or
sporty.
Dynamic bend lighting and automatic main
beam assist
The dynamic bend lighting and the automatic main
beam assist will give either a more dynamic or
more balanced respo nse to the current driving sit­
uation, depe nding on the selected driving m ode.

In Eco mode , the air cond itio ning will be set to run
even more economica lly.
Displaying the driving mode
