The electronic parking brake switches on automatically to hold the vehicle securely. However, the
electronic parking brake will not switch on if the brake pedal is depressed when the Auto Hold
function is switched off
Temporarily switching off the Auto Hold function with the button
It can sometimes be necessary to switch off the Auto Hold function temporarily to enable the vehicle
to roll more easily, for example when manoeuvring.
Press the brake pedal when the engine is on.
Press the button. The Auto Hold function is deactivated.
The Auto Hold function will be reactivated as soon as the brake pedal is depressed again when the

System limits
If the clutch slips during switching off of the ignition or opening of the driver door, the vehicle may
not be secured against rolling away by either the Auto Hold function or the electronic parking brake
lamp in the instrument cluster displaylights upred. The electronic parking brake is switched on.

WARNING
The intelligent Auto Hold function cannot overcome the laws of physics, and operates only within
the limits of the system. Do not let the extra convenience afforded by the Auto Hold function tempt
you into taking any safety risks when driving.
Make sure that the indicator lamp lights up green or red on the instrument cluster display if the
vehicle is to be held securely. The vehicle is being held by the Auto Hold function if the green
indicator lamp is lit and by the electronic parking brake if the red warning lamp is lit.
Never leave the vehicle if the engine is running and the Auto Hold function is switched on.
In some cases, the Auto Hold function cannot sufficiently hold the vehicle on uphill gradients or
brake it sufficiently on downhill gradients, e.g. if the ground is slippery or icy.

NOTICE
Switch off the Auto Hold function before driving into a car wash. Damage may otherwise be caused
by automatic activation of the electronic parking brake.

Service impairment or interruption
Apps
Volkswagen Car-Net is not available in all countries and is subject to country-specific limitations on
duration of use.
Volkswagen Car-Net allows you to communicate with your vehicle in order to exchange data,
request information or control functions.
In order to be able to use Volkswagen Car-Net, the vehicle has to be ordered with Car-Net and
factory-fitted with the system. Depending on the service or service portfolio, Volkswagen Car-Net
can be operated via the factory-fitted Infotainment system, via a Car-Net portal on the Internet or
using a mobile device.
Information about the Volkswagen Car-Net services, applications, availability, compatible mobile
devices and service portfolio, as well as service descriptions, are available on the Volkswagen
website:
In Europe and Japan: www.volkswagen.com/car-net

hina: www.vwcarnet.com.cn
Before using the Volkswagen Car-Net services for the first time, please read and observe the
information in the relevant service description. This will quickly help you to become familiar with the
services and make you aware of potential risks to yourself and others, and how to avoid them.

WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted.
Always drive carefully and responsibly.

WARNING
Failure to observe the information in the service description can lead to your vehicle breaking down
in traffic, and can cause accidents and serious injuries.
Always use the most up-to-date edition of the relevant service descriptions which is available on the
Volkswagen website.

WARNING
The following conditions can make it impossible to make a telephone call, run a Volkswagen Car-Net
service or transfer data:
If your current location is in an area with no or insufficient mobile communications and GPS
reception. This can also include tunnels, streets with tall buildings, garages, multi-storey car parks,
underpasses, mountains and valleys.
If you are in an area with sufficient mobile communications and GPS reception but the
telecommunications provider's mobile network is overloaded, out of order or unavailable.
If the components in the vehicle required for the services and data transmission are damaged, not
working or do not have sufficient electrical power.
The battery for the mobile device is empty, does not have a sufficient charge level or has no more
call credit.

WARNING
Using computers and mobile devices in public or non-secured LAN and WLAN networks can lead to a
loss of control over your Volkswagen Car-Net services.
In addition to the usual precautionary measures to be taken when using the Internet, you should
protect your computer and mobile device with suitable anti-virus software and regularly update its
signatures.

function will not be affected by the deactivation described here.
Temporary deactivation
If your vehicle is in a workshop, you may find that the service technicians have deactivated individual
or all services for the duration of the workshop visit. The services will be available again once the
work is complete. Please contact your workshop if necessary. Volkswagen Car-Net portfolios can be
deactivated manually in the Infotainment system. The services can then be run again when the
deactivation is cancelled in the Infotainment system. Deactivated services are marked with a
corresponding indication on the start page of the Car-Net portal.
Permanent deactivation
In order to permanently deactivate Car-Net functions in vehicles with the Security & Service or e-
Remote packages, the online connectivity unit must be deactivated by a qualified workshop at your
request.
Once the on-board connectivity unit has been deactivated, the workshop will attach a sticker
Fig. 145to your vehicle (e.g. on the roof console). The sticker shows that neither the Volkswagen
emergency call service nor the automatic accident notification will work. All other e-Remote and
Security & Service services will also be deactivated.
