WARNING
Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text messages can cause the vehicle to break down in traffic and result in a collision and serious personal injury.
x Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.
x Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
x Park the vehicle at a safe distance from moving traffic and where no part of the hot cata-lytic converter and exhaust system can come into contact with flammable materials under the vehicle, such as dry grass, brush, spilled fuel, etc.
x A broken down vehicle presents a high accident risk for itself and others. Switch on emergency flashers and set up a warning triangle to warn oncoming traffic.
WARNING
Roads and bridges may be dangerously icy even if the outside air temperature is above freez-ing.
x If you use the outside temperature display to tell you about frost conditions, remember that roads can even ice over at temperatures above +39 °F (+4 °C). Always remember: even if the “snowflake symbol” (icy road warning) is not displayed, there could still be black ice on the road.
x Never rely exclusively on the outside temperature display.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in vehicle damage.
The instrument cluster displays and their arrangement may vary depending on the vehicle model and engine. For displays without warning and information messages, malfunctions are only signaled with indicator lights.
If there are multiple warning messages, the symbols are displayed for several seconds in order of importance. The symbols are displayed until the cause has been corrected.

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. 150. 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 opposite 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
x Position the vehicle about 3 feet (1 meter) away from and parallel to the parking space and shift into Reverse.
x On the screen of the navigation system, activate Mode 2 for parallel parking.
x 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 vehicle.
x Turn the steering wheel as far as it will go into the direction of the parking space and slowly back up.
x 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.
x 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.

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 reactivates 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
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.
