x Adapt your speed and distance from the
vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather,
road and traffic conditions.
x Your hands should always be on the
steering wheel so that you can steer at
any time.
x Observe the displays in the exterior mir-
ror housings and on the instrument clus-
ter display and act in accordance with
the requests.
x Always pay attention to what is happen-
ing around the vehicle.
x Never use the lane change system if the
radar sensors are dirty, covered or dam-
aged. These circumstances can impair
the proper functioning of the system.
x It may be hard to see the display in the
wing mirror in direct sunlight. The radar sensors calibrate themselves
once in the first f
ew kilometres after
vehicle delivery and if the sensors are re-
paired. The sensor range may be limited dur-
ing the calibration phase. Driving with the lane change
system
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 172. Fig. 113
In the e
xterior mirror housing: visual
displays of the lane change system.
Switching on and off
You can switch the lane change system on
and off in the Assist systems menu of the In-
fotainment system. When the lane change
system is switched on, the yellow indicator
lamp in the exterior mirror housing lights
up once briefly.
This most recent system setting is retained
e

ven after the ignition has been switched off
and on.
Function
When switched on, the lane change system is
active from a speed of around 15 km/h
(9 mph). The lane change system is deactiva-
ted at a vehicle speed below 10 km/h
(6 mph).
In the following driving situations, the yellow
indicator lamp lights up in the housing of
the respectiv

e exterior mirror:

x
A void abrupt and sudden driving and
braking manoeuvres.
x Always adapt your speed and driving
style to suit visibility, weather, road and
traffic conditions. WARNING
A roof carrier that has not been appro
ved
for the vehicle or a roof carrier that is fitted
to a vehicle that is not approved for use
with a roof carrier may cause accidents or
injuries.
x Use only roof carriers that have been ap-
proved by Volkswagen for your vehicle.
x Never use a roof carrier on a vehicle that
has not been approved for use with
a roof carrier.
x A roof carrier that is fitted nevertheless
may become loose whilst the vehicle is
in motion and fall from the vehicle roof. NOTICE
Securing a roof carrier of any kind to a vehicle
that is not appro
ved for use with a roof carri-
er may lead to severe damage to the vehicle. Driving with a fitted roof carrier in-
creases the air resistance of the v

ehi-
cle and thus also the energy consumption of
the electric drive. This reduces the possible
range of the vehicle considerably. This ap-
plies to all roof carriers and the objects trans-
ported on them, e.g. bicycles and skis. Securing roof carriers
Please refer to and at the start of
the chapter on page 262.
Special roof carriers must be used to trans-
port luggage, bicycles, skis, surfboards or
boats saf

DANGER
It is dangerous to transport people in
a trailer and it may also be illegal. WARNING
Improper use of the towing bracket can
lead to a loss of v ehicle control, accidents
and serious injuries.
x Only use the towing bracket if it is fitted
properly and is not damaged.
x Do not carry out any alterations or re-
pairs to the towing bracket.
x Wherever possible, swivel in or remove
the ball coupling when a trailer is not
being used in order to reduce the risk of
injury in rear-end collisions, and the risk
of injury to pedestrians and cyclists
when the vehicle is parked.
x Never install a “weight-distributing” or
“load-balancing” towing bracket to the
vehicle. The vehicle was not constructed
for these kinds of towing brackets. The
towing bracket can fail, causing the
trailer to tear loose from the vehicle. WARNING
Towing a trailer and transporting heavy or
bulky items can change the v
ehicle han-
dling, increase the braking distance and
lead to accidents.
x Always secure loads properly using suit-
able and undamaged lashing, retaining
or securing straps.
x Always adapt your speed and driving
style to suit visibility, weather, road and
traffic conditions. Reduce your speed,
particularly when going downhill.
x Trailers with a high centre of gravity are
more likely to tip over than trailers with
a low centre of gravity.
x Always drive carefully and think ahead.
Accelerate carefully and gently. Avoid
abrupt and sudden driving and braking
manoeuvres. x
Take special care when o
vertaking. Re-
duce your speed immediately if the trail-
er shows even the slightest sign of snak-
ing.
x Never drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph) when towing a trailer; also
100 km/h (60 mph) in exceptional cases.
This also applies to countries where
higher speeds are permitted. Keep to
country-specific speed limits which may
be lower for vehicles with trailers than
for vehicles without trailers.
x Never try to stop a trailer from snaking
by increasing your speed.
x Never install a “weight-distributing” or
“load-balancing” towing bracket on the
vehicle. NOTICE
Please observe the notes and information for
v
ehicles with N1 approval

x
Do not use cleaning agents that contain
solv ents. Solvents can cause irreparable
damage to the airbag modules.
x Protect your hands and arms against
parts with sharp edges, e.g. when clean-
ing the insides of the wheel housings. WARNING
If the windscreen, door windows or rear
window are dirty, iced up or aff
ected by
condensation, visibility will be reduced and
the risk of accidents and severe injuries will
increase. This could impair the safety
equipment of the vehicle.
x Drive only when you have a clear view
through all windows.
x Do not treat the windscreen with water-
repellent window coating agents. In un-
favourable conditions, they can cause in-
creased dazzle. WARNING
Care products may be toxic and hazardous.
Unsuitable care products and incorrect ap-
plication of care products can cause acci-
dents, se

vere injuries, burns or poisoning.
x Store care products only in the closed
original container.
x Observe the manufacturer
