ParkPilot
o:n Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
ParkPilot only at rear . . 288 ParkPilot front and rear . . . 289
ParkPilot signal tones and displays . 290
The Park Pilot assists the driver when
parking and manoeuvring.
The ultrasound sensors in the bumpers transmit and receive ultrasound waves. The electronic sys-tem uses the ultrasound waves (i.e. transmission, reflection from the obstacle and reception) to cal-culate the distance between the bumper and the obstacle.
Additional information and warnings:

• Braking, stopping and parking =:o page 269
• Reversing camera (Rear Assist) =:o page 291

• Radio or navigation system =:o Booklet Radio, provision for mobile telephone, infotainment sys-tem, navigation system
A WARNING
ParkPilot technology cannot overcome sys-tem-related vehicle limitations. The ParkPilot cannot replace the full concentration 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.
• Always check the area around the vehicle as the ultrasound sensors will not always de-tect infants, animals and objects.
A WARNING (Continued)
• 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. This may prevent the system from recognising people or objects.
CD
Various factors can negatively Impact the Park-Pilot functions or lead to damage to the vehicle and objects in the area surrounding the vehi-cle.
• The ultrasound sensors may not always be able to detect objects such as trailer drawbars, thin rails, fences, posts, trees and open or opening boot lids. 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 ultrasound sensors as the vehicle approaches it, particu-larly 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 ParkPiiot is ig-nored.
• Ultrasound sensors can be displaced or damaged through Impacts, e.g. when parking.
• The ultrasound sensors must be kept clean and free of ice and snow, and must not be cov-ered up by stickers or other objects, as this will prevent the system from working properly.
• Repainting the ultrasound sensors can im-pair the function of the Park Pilot.
• The ultrasound sensors should only be sprayed briefly when cleaning with pressure hoses and steam cleaners. The steam/hose nozzle must always be kept more than 10 cm away from the ultrasound sensors.
• Sources of noise can lead to errors in the ParkPilot system, e.g. rough asphalt, cobble-stones, induction loops, building equipment, or interference from other vehicles.
Driver assist systems 287

CD
• In some cases water and ice on the ultra-sound sensors could be registered as an ob-struction.
• Any equipment that has been retrofitted to the vehicle, e.g. bicycle carriers or number plate holders, can prevent the ParkPIIot from fu nctlonlng properly.
m Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recom-L!J mends that drivers practise using the ParkPi-lot in a traffic-calmed area or car park to allow them to familiarise themselves with the system and its functions.

,....-m First read and observe the introductory L-J.:.I.I Information and safety warnings & on page 287.
Switching ParkPilot on and off
m If an ultrasound sensor fails, the correspond-L!J ing area of the ultrasound sensor cluster is switched off and cannot be reactivated until the fault has been rectified (depending on the equip-ment level). Consult a qualified workshop in the event of a system fault. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends using a Volkswagen Com-mercial Vehicles dealership for this purpose. The Park Pilot uses ultrasound sensors to deter-mine the distance between the rear bumper and an obstacle. There are 4 ParkPilot ultrasound sensors in the rear bumper (arrows).
Function What to do when the Ignition Is switched on
Switching on the ParkPilot:
Switching off the ParkPilot:
Switching off the ParkPilot display manually (sound output remains active)
Switching to the rear view camera system picture as required
Select reverse gear or move the selector lever to position R.
Deselect the reverse gear or selector lever position R. If the ParkPilot screen display is activated, the ParkPilot is switched off approximately 10 seconds after the reverse gear has been disengaged or the selector lever has been moved out of the R position.
OR: (depending on the equipment level) immediately after shifting out of re-verse gear, or selector lever position R, with an inactive ParkPilot screen dis-play.
OR: accelerate forwards to a speed greater than approximately 1 0-15 km/ h (6-9 mph).
Press a button, e.g.(RADIOl. on the factory-fitted radio or navigation system.
OR: touch the 0 function button.
Select reverse gear or move the selector lever to position R.
OR: touch the button.
Special features of ParkPilot • No acoustic signal is given in vehicles with a dual clutch gearbox DSG® if the selector lever is in position P. • In some cases, the ParkPilot registers water and ice on the ultrasound sensors as an obstacle.
• The acoustic warning will become quieter after a few seconds if the distance remains the same. The volume will remain constant if the signal tone is continuous.
• The intermittent signal tone switches off auto-matically as soon as the vehicle moves away from an obstacle again. If the vehicle approaches the obstacle again, the acoustic warning is switched on automatically.
288 I While driving
• The ParkPilot ultrasound sensors cannot be switched on if the factory-fitted towing bracket is electrically connected to the trailer.

Failure to observe the illuminated text messag-es can lead to the vehicle being damaged. The areas to the front and rear of the vehicle that are scanned by ultrasound sensors are shown on the screen of the factory-fitted radio or navigation system. The positions of potential obstacles are displayed relative to the vehicle &.
The areas to the front (only with ParkPilot front and rear) and rear of the vehicle are fully scanned by the ultrasound sensors.
Acoustic signals and screen
Acoustic signals are given when the vehicle ap-proaches an obstacle located in the range of the ultrasound sensors. An intermittent signal tone is given if a sufficiently short distance between the vehicle and an obstacle is detected. The shorter the distance, the shorter the intervals. The signal tone will sound continuously if the obstacle is very close.
If you continue to drive the vehide closer to the ob-sta de despite the continuous signal tone, the sys-tem will no longer be able to measure the distance.
With some vehicle equipment levels the scanned areas may be displayed as several segments in a display. The closer the vehicle drives lowards an obstacle, the closer the segment will move to the vehicle in the display. The collision area has been reached when the penultimate segment is dis-played, if not before. Do not drive onl .,..
