turning manoeuvres.
Always switch off the turn signal once the lane change or overtaking or turning manoeuvre has been
completed.

The hazard warning lights also work when the ignition is switched off In an emergency

symbol in the light switch lights up green.Dipped beam is switched off the side lights will stay
on as long as the vehicle key is in the ignition lock or, in vehicles with Keyless Access, the driver door

Daytime running lights
The daytime running lights (dependent on equipment level) can increase the visibility of your vehicle
in traffic during the day.
The daytime running lights are switched on every time the ignition is switched on when the light
switch is in position , or (when brightness is detected).
The daytime running lights cannot be switched on or off manually.

WARNING
Accidents and serious injuries can occur if the road is not sufficiently illuminated and other road
users have difficulty seeing the vehicle, or cannot see it at all.
The light assist systems are designed only to provide support; the driver is responsible for the
correct vehicle lights being switched on.
Always switch on the dipped beam headlights if it is dark, raining or visibility is poor.

WARNING
The side lights or daytime running lights are not bright enough to illuminate the road ahead and to
ensure that other road users are able to see you.
Always switch on the dipped beam headlights if it is dark, raining or visibility is poor.
The tail light clusters are not switched on with the daytime running lights. If the tail light clusters are
not switched on, the vehicle may not be visible to other road users if it is dark, raining, or if visibility
is poor.

WARNING
The automatic headlights ( ) switch dipped beam on and off only when there is a change in
the level of brightness.
Switch on dipped beam manually if required by the weather conditions, e.g. in fog.

If you have to drive a right-hand drive vehicle in a left-hand drive country, or vice versa, the
asymmetric dipped beam headlights may dazzle oncoming traffic. The headlights must therefore be
switched over when you travel to these countries.
With some equipment levels, the headlight alignment can be adjusted in the Infotainment system in
the Vehicle settings menu Infotainment system controls and displays
In vehicles in which the headlights cannot be switched over in the menu, masking stickers should be
applied to certain parts of the headlight lenses, or the headlights should be adjusted by a qualified
workshop. A qualified workshop can provide you with further information. Volkswagen recommends
using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.

Travel mode may be used only for a short period. Please contact a qualified workshop for a
permanent conversion. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
Interior lighting
Instrument and switch lighting
The brightness of the instrument and switch lighting can be adjusted in the Infotainment system in
the Vehicle settings menu Infotainment system controls and displays
The brightness setting is automatically adjusted to the changing light conditions in the vehicle.
When the light switch is in position , a sensor will switch the dipped beam and the lighting in
the instruments and switches on and off automatically depending on the ambient brightness level.

When the light is switched off and the ignition switched on, the instrument and switch lighting
(needles and scales) is switched on. As the ambient light becomes lower, the illumination of the
scales is automatically reduced and may be switched off entirely. This function is intended to remind
the driver to switch on the dipped beam in good time, i.e. when driving through tunnels.
Interior and reading lights
Press the appropriate button or move the switch to the appropriate position:
Switch off the interior light.Switch on the interior lights.The interior lights are switched on
automatically when the vehicle is unlocked, a door is opened or the vehicle key is removed from the
ignition.Switch the reading light on or off.
Stowage compartment and luggage compartment lights
A light will be switched on and off when the stowage compartment on the front passenger side or
the boot lid is opened or closed.
Background lighting

pending on the equipment level, the background lighting provides indirect light in various areas of
the vehicle interior.
The front footwell may also be illuminated.
The brightness of the background lighting can be adjusted in the Infotainment system in the Vehicle
settings menu Infotainment system controls and displays

The lights go out when the vehicle is locked or after a delay of a few minutes when the vehicle key is
removed from the ignition lock. This prevents the 12-volt vehicle battery from discharging.

Some settings can be stored in the user accounts of the personalisation function and therefore
change automatically when the user account changes Personalisation
