2013 VOLKSWAGEN CC radio

Please turn off the engine when you stop for any length of time.
The vehicle battery will drain if you use electrical equipment when
the engine is not running.
Unshielded devices may interfere with radio reception or the ve-
hicle's electrical system.
Operating electrical devices near the rear-window antenna may
interfere with AM radio reception.
12 Volt sockets in the vehicle

Fig. 130 In the luggage compartment: 12 Volt socket.

12 Volt socket
The 12 Volt socket works only when the ignition is switched on.
If the ignition is on but the engine is not running, the vehicle battery
will be drained by any device that is plugged in and turned on. For
this reason, never use the electrical sockets unless the engine is run-
ning.
To help prevent damage from voltage fluctuations, switch off all elec-
trical devices connected to a 12 Volt socket before switching the igni-
tion on or off or starting the engine.
The vehicle may have 12 Volt sockets at the following places:
In the storage compartment in the front center console ⇒ page 304,
Storage compartment in the front center console.
In the rear center console ⇒ Opening the socket cover.
In the luggage compartment ⇒ fig. 130.
NOTICE
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for connected devices!
Never exceed the maximum power consumption, or the entire
vehicle electrical system may be damaged.
12 Volt socket:
– Only use equipment that has been tested for electromagnet-
ic compatibility and complies with applicable guidelines.
– Never feed current into the socket, with a solar panel, for
example.
Unshielded devices may interfere with radio reception or the ve-
hicle's electrical system.

When a turn signal is set, unnecessary lines and areas are hidden.
Orientation lines overview
Meaning of the orientation lines and areas projected on screen
⇒ fig. 155. All distances of the orientation lines refer to a vehicle on a
level surface.
(1) Red: Safety distance. Area up to about 16 inches (40 cm) behind
the vehicle on the road.
(2) Vehicle's width limits.
(3) Point to change steering angle.
When the yellow line touches the curb or any other parking
space boundary, the steering wheel must be turned in the oppo-
site direction (close-up view).
(4) The area parallel to the vehicle that is needed for parking. The
area shown must fit completely into the parking space.
(5) Parked vehicle at the curb.
Parking
Position the vehicle about 3 feet (1 meter) away from and parallel
to the parking space and shift into Reverse.
On the screen of the navigation system, activate Mode 2 for paral-
lel parking.
Back up slowly and steer the vehicle so that the yellow surface on
the screen is flush with the side boundary of the parking space (such
as the curb) and stops short of any obstacle (5), such as another ve-
hicle.
Turn the steering wheel as far as it will go into the direction of the
parking space and slowly back up.
Once the yellow line (3) touches the side of the parking space, for
example, a marking or the curb (close-up view), turn the steering
wheel as far as it will go in the opposite direction.
Continue backing up until the vehicles is positioned in the parking
space parallel to the road. If necessary, correct the parking position.
It may take up to 5 seconds for the area detected by the sensors
to be displayed on the factory-installed radio or navigation system
screen.

In order to Operation
view camera dis-
play (if equipped): OR: Tap the function key Z or 26# on the dis-
play.

The indicator light in the button  ⇒ fig. 157 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
In some cases, the Park Distance Control interprets water and ice
on the sensors as an obstacle.
If the distance remains the same, the warning tone volume de-
creases after a few seconds. If a continuous tone sounds, its volume
remains the same.
If the vehicle moves away from the obstacle, the beeping sound
stops automatically. The beep turns on again automatically if the ve-
hicle approaches the obstacle again.
For vehicles with automatic transmissions, there is no beeping
when the transmission is in Park (P) and the electronic parking brake
is engaged.
The volume of the audible signals can be adjusted by an author-
ized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facili-
ty.
Muting the Park Distance Control volume
You can mute the PDC beeping signals by tapping the  function
key on the Radio or Navigation system screen (if applicable). Tap the
function key again to reactivate the acoustic signals.
Switching Park Distance Control back on after it was switched off re-
activates the volume. System malfunction warning signals cannot be
switched off.
If you manually deactivate the display, PDC remains on and the
sound is reactivated.

WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fuel is dangerous and can
cause fire, explosion, and severe burns.
Always make sure that the fuel filler cap is screwed on all the
way. This helps keep fuel from spilling out or evaporating.
Fuel is highly flammable and explosive; it can cause severe
burns and other severe injuries.
Failure to shut the engine off while refueling and/or to insert
the pump nozzle all the way into the fuel filler neck can cause
fuel to overflow and to spray out. Fuel spray and overflowing
fuel are dangerous because they can cause fire and serious
personal injury.
During refueling, the engine and the ignition must be
switched off for safety reasons.
Never use a mobile telephone, CB radio, or other radio
equipment while refueling. The electromagnetic radiation can
cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and cause a fire.
Never get back into your vehicle while refueling. If in excep-
tional circumstances you must get back in your vehicle while
refueling, make certain that you close the door and touch metal
to discharge static electricity before touching the filler nozzle
again. This helps avoid the buildup of static electricity, which
can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors released during
refueling.
Never smoke or have an open flame (or sparks, cigarettes, or
other smoldering objects) anywhere in or near your vehicle
when refueling or filling a portable fuel container.
Follow all safety instructions and procedures that apply at
the service station where you refuel.
Never spill fuel in the vehicle or the luggage compartment.

WARNING
Inappropriate spare parts and accessories as well as improper-
ly performed work, modifications and repairs can cause vehicle
damage, accidents and serious personal injuries.
Volkswagen strongly recommends to only use accessories
approved by Volkswagen and Genuine Volkswagen Parts®.
These parts and accessories have been evaluated by
Volkswagen for their suitability, reliability and safety.
Have repairs and vehicle modifications performed by an au-
thorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility. Authorized Volkswagen dealers and authorized
Volkswagen Service Facilities have the required tools, diagnos-
tic equipment, repair information, and trained personnel to
properly replace any airbag in your vehicle and assure system
effectiveness in a crash.
Only install parts on the vehicle that are consistent with fac-
tory-installed parts with respect to design and characteristics.
Never store, mount, or attach objects, such as cup holders or
phone cradles, on or next to the airbag module covers or within
the airbags deployment zones.
Only use wheel rim/tire combinations approved by
Volkswagen for the respective vehicle type.

WARNING
Items stored between the safety belt buckle and the center con-
sole can cause safety belt buckle to send the wrong infor-
mation to the airbag control unit and prevent the Advanced Air-
bag System from working properly.
Always make sure that nothing can interfere with the safety
belt buckles and that they are not obstructed.
WARNING
Improper care and servicing, and improper modification and
repair work, can increase the risk of personal injury and death
by preventing an airbag from deploying when needed or de-
ploying an airbag unexpectedly:
Never repair, adjust, or change any parts of the airbag sys-
tem.
All work on the airbag system, steering wheel, instrument
panel, front seats or electrical system (including the installation
of audio equipment, mobile telephones and CB radios, etc.)
should be performed by authorized Volkswagen dealers or au-
thorized Volkswagen Service Facilities. They have the neces-
sary manuals, training, and special equipment.
The airbag system can be activated only once. After an air-
bag has inflated, it must be replaced.
Use only original equipment airbags approved by
Volkswagen. Have them installed by a trained technician who
has the necessary tools and diagnostic equipment to properly
replace any airbag in your vehicle and assure system effective-
ness in a crash.
Never permit salvaged or recycled airbags to be installed in
your vehicle.
Undeployed airbag modules and safety belt pretensioners are
classified as Perchlorate Material. Special handling may apply – see
http://www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate. Obey all appli-
cable legal requirements regarding handling and disposal of the vehi-
cle or parts of its restraint system, including airbag modules and safe-
ty belts with pretensioners. Authorized Volkswagen dealers and au-

Mobile or cellular telephones send and receive radio waves, some-
times called “radiofrequency energy” (RF energy), both when they are
being used and when they are in standby mode. Current scientific
literature indicates that radio waves that exceed a certain level can
have effects on the human body. Limits and guidelines have been
established by governmental authorities and international committees
in an effort to keep the electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones
at levels that will not cause health problems. However, there is no
scientifically based proof that wireless phones are absolutely safe.
Therefore, some experts recommend a precautionary approach re-
garding the use of mobile phones by taking measures that lower the
personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. When using a mobile
telephone inside a motor vehicle without a proper connection to an
integrated vehicle telephone antenna, the personal exposure to elec-
tromagnetic fields will be higher than when using the mobile tele-
phone while properly connected to an integrated or other outside ve-
hicle telephone antenna.
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional hands-free system
that will permit many of the features of compatible Bluetooth® enabled
mobile telephones to be used for greater convenience and is con-
sistent with the laws of an increasing number of states and localities
that prohibit the use of mobile telephones without some kind of
hands-free device.
The hands-free system in your vehicle can be used with certain mo-
bile phones that are connected by wire and hardware connector or via
compatible Bluetooth® enabled phones with a cradle that is designed
to fit your mobile telephone.The special cradle offers several ad-
vantages: The phone cradle must be safely secured to the base plate.
Your phone is firmly attached to the instrument panel and is within
reach at all times. Placing the phone in its cradle permits it to be
charged, but more importantly connects the mobile phone to the vehi-
cle's outside antenna. A mobile telephone that is properly connected
to the integrated or other outside vehicle telephone antenna will lower
the personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. You should also ex-
perience a better quality of service. Although a mobile telephone can
be used inside your vehicle without a cradle, the phone will not be
securely attached to the vehicle, will not be charged through the cra-
dle wiring, and more importantly will not be connected to the vehicle's
integrated telephone antenna. The mobile phone will also not be re-
