• The rear view camera system may not be able to display all areas clearly.
• The rear view camera system should only be used when the tallgate is fully closed.
CD
• The rear view camera system shows only two-dimensional images on the screen. The lack of depth of field means that potholes and protruding objects on the ground may only be detected with difficulty, or may not be detected at all.
• The rear view camera system may notal· ways be able to detect objects such as thin rails, fences, posts, trees etc. This could result In damage to your vehicle.
./ The vehicle must be undamaged. The rear view camera system must be checked by a qualified workshop if the position or angle of the camera has changed, e.g. following a rear impact.
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends that you practise parking with the reversing camera in a traffic-calmed area or car park with good visi-bility and weather conditions, so that you can famil· iarise yourself with the system, orientation lines and guiding functions in a safer environment.

r-f"n First read and observe the introductory L-W! information and safety warnings & on page 312.
Visual display in the exterior Situation mirror housing
The lane change assist system uses radar sensors to monitor the area behind the vehicle. The system then measures the distance and the difference in speed to other vehicles. The lane change assist system is activated at speeds over approximately 10 km/h (6 m ph) and deactivated at speeds under 5 km/h (3 mph). The driver receives infonmation via the visual display in the exterior mirror housing.
Visual display in the exterior mirror housing
The visual displays 248 in the exterior mirror housing notify the driver of following traffic on ei-ther side of the vehicle whenever a traffic situation is classified as critical when the driver intends to change lanes.
Tinted side windows or retrofitted tinting foils can negatively affect or distort the visual displays in the exterior mirror.

.........r'n First read and observe the Introductory L-.lr:.ll Information and safety warnings & on page 322.
The cooling system for the vehicle interior only works when the engine is running and the blower is switched on.
The air conditioning system operates most effec-tively with the windows and the sliding/tilting roof closed. However, if the vehicle has heated up after standing in the sun for some time, the air inside can be cooled more quickly by opening the win-dows and the sliding/tilting roof for a short time.
Settings for optimal road visibility
Switching the cooling system on not only reduces the temperature of the vehicle interior, but also the humidity. This improves comfort for the vehicle oc-cupants and prevents the windows from misting when the outside humidity is high.
