restrictions with accompanying additional signs. 
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
Dynamic Road Sign Display uses a camera in the base of the interior mirror to monitor standard road 
signs and informs the driver of any detected speed limits or overtaking restrictions. Within the limits 
of the system, the system also displays additional signs, e.g. temporary restrictions, signs related to 
towing a trailer Trailer towingor restrictions in wet weather conditions. In some cases, the 
system can also display the current speed limits on non-signposted routes. 
Displays 
In addition to speed limits and overtaking restrictions, Dynamic Road Sign Display also detects the 
sign which indicates that all restrictions have been lifted on motorways and main roads in Germany. 
In all other countries, the currently valid speed limit is displayed instead. 
The road signs detected by Dynamic Road Sign Display are displayed on the instrument cluster 
Fig. 14and in some cases also on the Infotainment system, depending on which version is 
installed in the vehicle. In some equipment levels, a display is also shown on the Head-up Display

WARNING 
Unintentional vehicle movements can cause serious injury. 
The driver must never leave the driver seat when the engine is running and a position has been 
selected. If you have to leave the vehicle while the engine is running, always switch on the electronic 
parking brake and move the selector lever to position P. 
If the engine is running and the selector lever is in position D/S or R, the vehicle must be held by the 
foot brake. The vehicle will creep forward even when the engine is idling, as power transmission is 
even then not fully interrupted. 
Never select reverse or selector lever position P when the vehicle is in motion. 
Never leave the vehicle in selector lever position N. The vehicle will roll downhill irrespective of 
whether or not the engine is running. 
 
NOTICE 
If the electronic parking brake is not switched on when the vehicle is stationary and the brake pedal 
is released when the selector lever is in position P, the vehicle may move a few centimetres forwards 
or backwards. 
 
If the lever is moved accidentally to N when driving, take your foot off the accelerator. Wait for the 
engine to reach idling speed in the neutral position before selecting a position again. 
 
If the selector lever is left in any position other than P for long periods when the engine is switched 
off, the 12-volt vehicle battery will discharge.

Legal requirements 
 
Fig. 144 Symbol for vehicles that send tracking information 
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
By concluding a Volkswagen Car-Net contract for your vehicle, you as the contracting party 
undertake within the meaning of data protection law to inform each driver that the vehicle can 
transmit and receive data online. This also applies if you sell or lend your vehicle. 
Failure to observe this obligation to inform can infringe certain rights of vehicle occupants. 
GPS tracking: check with all occupants 
Some Volkswagen Car-Net services require vehicle data to determine whether the vehicle is 
complying with set speed limits, where the vehicle is parked, or whether the vehicle is located within 
a defined area. This information can be displayed in the Car-Net portal and in the Volkswagen Car-
Net app. 
Therefore, before setting off, ask all occupants if they agree to use of the activated services. If an 
occupant does not agree, deactivate the service (if possible) or exclude the occupant from use of the 
vehicle. If you do not observe this, you may violate certain rights of the vehicle occupants. 
GPS tracking: symbol 
If a factory-fitted control unit is used to transmit the vehicle's current location and speed, this 
symbol Fig. 144will always be located in the vehicle (e.g. on the roof console). However, the  

s and cameras must not be covered by stickers, additional 
headlights, trim frames for number plates or similar. 
Repairs and structural modifications should therefore be carried out only by a qualified workshop. 
Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose. 
-ups in the area around the sensors may impair the function of the 
system in question.

sump, for example when driving over kerbs, drive entrances or unsurfaced roads. 
Volkswagen recommends that you have this equipment retrofitted by your Volkswagen dealership. 
 
WARNING 
Incorrectly performed repairs and modifications can cause malfunctions and damage to the vehicle 
and impair the effectiveness of the driver assist systems. This can result in accidents and severe 
injuries.
