2019 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN Motor position sensor

Fig. 102 On the left of the steering column: operating the rear window wiper.
The windscreen wipers will only function when the ignition is switched on and the bonnet and boot
lid are closed.
Move the windscreen wiper lever to the desired position ⇒:
Wipers switched off.
Interval wipe for the windscreen or rain/light sensor mode. The interval wipe for the
windscreen depends on the speed of the vehicle. The wipers will wipe more frequently as the
vehicle moves faster.
Slow wipe.
Fast wipe.
x Flick wipe – wipes briefly. Push and hold the lever down for longer to wipe more quickly.
Pulling the lever activates the wash and wipe system for cleaning the windscreen. The
Climatronic will switch to air recirculation mode for approximately 30 seconds to prevent the
smell of the windscreen washer fluid from entering the vehicle interior.
Use the switch to set the interval lengths (vehicles without a rain/light sensoryfRU
adjust the sensitivity of the rain/light sensor.
Interval wipe for the rear window. The windscreen wiper will wipe the window
approximately every 6 seconds.
Pushing the lever activates the wash and wipe system for cleaning the rear window.
When switched on, the wipers will temporarily be switched to the next setting down when the
vehicle is stationary.
Some settings can be stored in the user accounts of the personalisation function and
therefore change automatically when the user account changes ⇒ Personalisation.
Without adequate anti-freeze, the washer fluid can freeze on the windscreen and obscure
your view.
•In winter temperatures, the windscreen washer system should only be used when
adequate frost protection has been added.
•Never use the windscreen washer system at winter temperatures before the
windscreen has been heated by the ventilation system or the windscreen heating. This
could lead to the anti-freeze mixture freezing on the windscreen and restrict the
driver's vision.
WARNING
Worn or dirty windscreen wiper blades reduce visibility and increase the risk of accidents
and severe injuries.
•Always change wiper blades if they are damaged or worn and no longer clean the
windows properly ⇒ Wiper blades.
WARNING
Before setting off and before switching on the ignition, always check the following to avoid
damage to the windows, wiper blades and wiper motor:
•The wiper lever is located in the basic position.
•Snow and ice have been removed from the wiper blades and windows.
•Wiper blades that have become frozen onto the glass have been carefully loosened.
Volkswagen recommends using a de-icer spray for this.
NOTICE
Do not switch on the wipers when the windscreen is dry. Using the wipers when the glass
is dry can damage the glass.

System limits
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Front Assist has physical and system-related limitations. From the driver's perspective, some Front
Assist reactions may therefore occur unexpectedly or with a delay in certain circumstances. You
should therefore always be prepared to take full control of the vehicle if necessary.
•In tight bends.
•If the accelerator is fully depressed.
•If Front Assist is switched off or faulty.
•If TCS is switched off manually.
•If ESC is taking corrective action.
•If there is a fault in several brake lights on the vehicle or on a trailer with an electrical
connection to the vehicle ⇒.
•If the radar sensor is dirty or covered.
•If there are metal objects, e.g. tracks in the road or metal plates used in roadworks, or road
signs, above and adjacent to the road.
•If the vehicle is reversing.
•Under hard acceleration.
•In snow or heavy rain.
•In case of narrow vehicles, e.g. motorbikes.
•If vehicles are travelling slightly to the left or right of your vehicle.
•If vehicles are crossing in front of your vehicle.
•If there is oncoming traffic.
•If pedestrians are standing in front of the vehicle, approaching the vehicle, or moving in the
same direction as the vehicle.
•In complex driving situations, e.g. at traffic islands.
•In unclear traffic situations, e.g. vehicles ahead are heavily braking or turning off.
•When loads or attachment parts on other vehicles protrude to the side, rear or above the normal
dimensions of the vehicle.
Switching off Front Assist
•If the vehicle is being towed.
•If the vehicle is on a rolling road test bed.
•If the vehicle is driven in areas other than public roads.
•If the radar sensor is faulty.
•After external force on the radar sensor, e.g. after a rear-end collision.
•In the event of multiple unwanted interventions.
•If the radar sensor is covered temporarily by any auxiliary equipment, e.g. auxiliary headlights.
•If the vehicle is loaded onto a truck, car ferry or motorail train.
The intelligent Pedestrian Monitoring technology cannot overcome the laws of physics,
and functions only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra convenience
afforded by the Pedestrian Monitoring system tempt you into taking any risks when
driving. The driver is always responsible for braking in time.
•If Pedestrian Monitoring issues a warning, brake your vehicle immediately depending
on the traffic situation or avoid the pedestrian.
•The Pedestrian Monitoring system cannot prevent accidents and serious injuries on its
own.
•The Pedestrian Monitoring system can issue unnecessary warnings and carry out
unwanted braking interventions in complex driving situations, e.g. on a twisting main
road.
•The Pedestrian Monitoring system can issue unnecessary warnings and carry out
unwanted braking interventions when its function is impaired, e.g. if the radar sensor is
covered or its position has been changed.
•Be prepared to take over control of the vehicle yourself at all times.
WARNING
Failure to switch off Front Assist in the situations mentioned can result in accidents and
serious injuries.
WARNING

Troubleshooting
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
A message is displayed on the instrument cluster display in the event of malfunctions.
If the malfunction cannot be rectified by one of the listed measures, switch off Front Assist and go
to a qualified workshop. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
Front Assist is not available, the radar sensor does not have sufficient
visibility
•The radar sensor is dirty. Clean the radar sensor ⇒ Vehicle care.
•The visibility of the radar sensor is impaired by add-on parts, the trim frames of number plate
holders or stickers. Keep the area around the radar sensor free.
•The radar sensor has been displaced or damaged, e.g. due to damage to the front of the
vehicle. Check whether damage is visible ⇒ Repairs and technical modifications.
•Structural modifications have been made to the front of the vehicle.
•The genuine Volkswagen badge is not used.
Front Assist does not function as expected or is triggered unnecessarily
several times
•The radar sensor is dirty. Clean the radar sensor ⇒ Vehicle care.
•The visibility of the radar sensor is impaired due to the weather conditions, e.g. snow, or due to
detergent deposits or coatings. Clean the radar sensor ⇒ Vehicle care.
•The system limits are not met ⇒ System limits.
Lane keeping system (Lane Assistyf
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Driving with the lane keeping system
⇒ Troubleshooting
The lane keeping system (Lane Assistyf
helps the driver stay in lane.
Using a camera in the windscreen ⇒ Vehicle overviews, the lane keeping system detects lane
markings on the road. If your vehicle moves too close to a recognised lane marking, the system will
warn the driver with a corrective steering intervention. The corrective steering intervention can be
overridden by the driver at any time.
Adaptive lane guidance (depending on vehicle equipmentyf
The adaptive lane guidance system detects the preferred position in a lane and keeps the vehicle in
this position.
Adaptive lane guidance is switched on and off in the Driver assistance menu in the Infotainment
system ⇒ Operation and display in the Infotainment system.
System limits
Use the lane keeping system only on motorways and good main roads.
The system is not active under the following conditions:
•Vehicle speed is less than 60 km/h (37 mphyf.
•Lane keeping system has not detected any lane markings or lane boundaries.
