Acceleration can be stopped at any time by de-pressing the brake pedal or pressing the(@ or @ button on the multifunction steering wheel 302.
When driving through bends
While driving through bends, the radar sensor may sometimes lose the vehicle travelling ahead or may react to a vehicle in the next lane 242 !Al. In such situations, the vehicle might decelerate unnecessarily or not react to the vehicle in front. In this case the driver must override the adaptive cruise control (ACC) by depressing the accelerator, or interrupt the braking procedure by depressing the brake pedal or pressing or @ button on the multifunction steering wheel 302.
Driving in tunnels
The radar sensor function may be restricted in tun-nels. Switch off the adaptive cruise control (ACC) in tunnels.
Narrow vehicles and a zig-zag traffic situation
Narrow vehicles and vehicles travelling slightly to the left or right of your vehicle will only be recog-nised by the radar sensor once they have entered the radar range 242@ This applies in par-ticular to narrow vehicles such as motorbikes. If re-quired, brake the vehicle yourself.
Vehicles with special load or special equipment
Any load or accessories on other vehicles that pro-trude from the side, rear or over the roof of the ve-hicle may not be detected by the adaptive cruise control (ACC) .
Switch off the adaptive cruise control (ACC) when the vehicle ahead has special load or special equipment, or while overtaking vehicles of this kind. If required. brake the vehicle yourself.
When other vehicles change lanes
Vehicles that are very close when they move into your lane can only be detected by the radar sen-sors when they have moved into the sensor range. This means that the adaptive cruise control (ACC) may have a delayed reaction =>Fig. 243@]. If re-quired, brake the vehicle yourself.
Stationary vehicles
The adaptive cruise control (ACC) does not detect stationary objects during a journey, e.g. stationary traffic or a vehicle that has broken down.
306 I While driving
If a stationary vehicle is hidden behind a vehicle that has been detected by the adaptive cruise con-trol (ACC) and this vehicle turns off the road or changes lane, the adaptive cruise control (ACC) will not be able to react to the stationary vehicle 243 [Q]. If required, brake the vehicle your-self.
Oncoming vehicles and vehicles crossing your path
The adaptive cruise control (ACC) does not react to approaching vehicles or vehicles crossing your path.
Metal objects
Metal objects, such as tracks in the road or metal plates used in roadworks, can confuse the radar sensor and cause incorrect reactions from the adaptive cruise control (ACC) .
Possible radar sensor function impairments
The adaptive cruise control (ACC) will switch off temporarily if the radar sensor function is impaired, e.g. due to heavy rain, spray, snow, ice or mud. A corresponding message will appear on the instru-ment cluster display. Clean the radar sensors as required.
The adaptive cruise control (ACC) will automatical-ly be available again as soon as the radar sensors are no longer impaired. The message on the in-strument cluster display goes out, and the adaptive cruise control (ACC) can be reactivated.
Strong reflected radiation of the radar signal, e.g. in multi-storey car parks, can impair the function of the radar sensor.
Towing a trailer
The adaptive cruise control (ACC) operates with reduced dynamics when the vehicle is towing a trailer.
Overheated brakes
If the brakes overheat, e.g. following heavy braking or when driving down steep inclines for long peri-ods, the adaptive cruise control (ACC) may be de-activated temporarily. A corresponding message will appear on the instrument cluster display. lt is then not possible to activate the adaptive cruise control (ACC).
As soon as the temperature of the brakes has de-creased sufficiently, the adaptive cruise control (ACC) can be activated again. The message on the instrument cluster display goes out. If the mes-sage ACC not ava i 1 able does not go out for a long time, there is a fault. Go to a qualified work-shop. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswa-gen dealership for this purpose.

A WARNING (Continued)
• Front Assist can Issue unnecessary warn-ings and carry out unwanted braking inter-ventions when Its function is Impaired, e.g. if the position of the radar sensor has been soiled or changed.
• The Front Assist does not react to per-sons, animals or vehicles crossing or ap-proaching In the same lane.

City Emergency Brake function
Fig. 247 The display in the instrument cluster: ad-vance warning display.
,...-m First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings & on page 307.
The City Emergency Brake function is part of the area monitoring system (Front Assist) and is active when Front Assist is switched on.
The front scan system and thus the City Emergen-cy Brake function can be activated and deactivated using the Assistant menu in the Volkswagen in-formation system or the Front Assist option in the Assistant submenu of the Settings menu 24.
The City Emergency Brake function gathers infor-mation on the traffic situation up to a distance of about 10 m in front of the vehicle within a speed range of about 5 km/h (3 m ph) to 30 kmlh (19 mph).
The system prepares the vehicle for emergency braking if it detects a possible collision with a vehi-cle ahead &.
If the driver does not react to a possible serious collision, the system can automatically stop the ve-hicle with brake pressure with increasing intensity so as to reduce the speed in a possible collision. Hence the system can help minimise the conse-quences of an accident.
Display
Automatic deceleration by the City Emergency Brake function will be shown by the advance warn-ing display in the instrument Fig. 247.
A wARNING
The intelligent technology used in the City Emergency Brake cannot overcome the laws of physics, and functions only within the lim-its of the system. The driver is always re-sponsible for braking In time.
• Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
• The City Emergency Brake function can-not prevent accidents and serious injuries by itself.
• The City Emergency Brake function can carry out unwanted brake interventions in certain complex driving situations, e.g. at building sites and metal tracks.
• The City Emergency Brake can carry out unwanted braking interventions when its function is impaired, e.g. if the position of the radar sensor has been contaminated or changed.
• The City Emergency Brake function does not react to persons, animals or vehicles crossing or approaching in the same lane.

System limits
r-('n First read and observe the Introductory L-J,:.U Information and safety warnings & on page 307.
The area monitoring system (Front Assist) has physical and system-related limits. The driver may therefore feel that, in certain circumstances, some Front Assist reactions occur unexpectedly or with a delay. You should therefore always be prepared to take full control of the vehicle if necessary.
The following conditions can prevent Front Assist from reacting, or cause a delay in its reaction:
• In tight bends.
• If the accelerator is fully depressed.
• If Front Assist is switched off or there is a fault.
• If TCS or ESC is switched off manually.
• If the 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 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.
• In uncertain traffic situations.
• 1/Vhen loads or attachment parts on other vehi-cles protrude to the side, rear or above the normal dimensions of the vehicle. Lane change assist system (Side Assist)

A WARNING
The Intelligent technology of the lane change assist system (Side Assist) cannot change the laws of physics or the system-related ve-hicle limitations. Always take care when us-Ing the lane change assist system as you could otherwise cause accidents or Injuries. The system Is not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.
• Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
• Your hands should always be on the steer-Ing wheel so that you can steer at any time.
• Pay attention to the visual displays in the exterior mirror housing and in the Instrument cluster display, and respond to the com-mands.
• The lane change assist system may react to special roadside structures, e.g. high or offset crash barriers. This can lead to error warnings. ,..

Operation
Fig. 248 Display in the exterior mirror
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.
None No other vehicle at a critical distance from your vehicle detected by -the lane change assist system & in Indicator lamp on page 313.

Radar sensors
The radar sensors are on the left and right behind the rear bumper and are not visible from outside. They monitor an area of approximately 70 metres behind the vehicle and the blind spots to the right and left of the vehicle. The monitored area to the side of the vehicle is approximately one lane wide.
The width of the lane is not detected in individual cases. but is predefined in the system. For this rea-son. incorrect displays could be shown when driv-
314 I While driving
ing in narrow lanes or when driving in the middle of 2 lanes. In the same way, vehicles travelling in the lane next to the one you wish to change to could be detected, as could solid objects such as safety barriers. and trigger an incorrect warning.

rll1 First read and observe the introductory L-W.I Information and safety warnings & on page 312.
The following driving situations trigger a light in the exterior mirror 249 [ID (arrow) or 250 [ID (arrow):
• When another vehicle is overtaking your vehi-cle 249
• When overtaking another vehicle 250 with a speed difference of up to approximately 15 km/h (9 m ph). No display will be shown if the take-over manoeuvre is much faster.
The display in the exterior mirror will be shown ear-lier the faster you are nearing another vehicle as the lane change assist system calculates the
speed difference to other vehicles. For this reason, the display could be activated at different times de-spite your vehicle being at the same distance from other vehicles.
Physical and system-specific limits
The lane change assist system might, for example, interpret the traffic situation incorrectly in certain driving situations. In the following situations, for ex-ample:
• In tight bends.
• When road lanes are of varying width.
• At the brow of a hill.
• In poor weather conditions.
• Where there are special roadside structures, e.g. high or offset crash barriers. <1

(l) System faulty. ed off and back on again and if it is not possi-ble to calibrate the tyre monitoring system, please go to a qualified workshop. Have the system checked.
•I Indicator lamp flashes for around 1 minute and then lights continuously.
Several warning and indicator lamps will light up briefly as a functional check when the lgnilion is switched on. They will go out after a few seconds.
A WARNING
Differing tyre pressures or tyre pressures that are too low can cause tyre failure, the loss of vehicle control, accidents, serious in-jury and death.
• If the Indicator lamp (l) lights up, stop the vehicle as soon as possible and check all the tyres.
• Different tyre pressures or tyre pressures that are too low can Increase wear on the tyres, reduce vehicle stability and Increase the braking distance.
• Differing tyre pressures or tyre pressures that are too low can cause sudden tyre failure and lead to a tyre burst and the loss of con-trol over the vehicle.
• The driver Is responsible for the correct tyre pressure of all tyres on the vehicle. The recommended tyre pressure can be found on the tyre pressure label 367.
• The tyre monitoring system cannot func-tion correctly until all cold wheels have the correct tyre pressure.
• The use of Incorrect tyre pressures can cause accidents and tyre damage. All tyres must always have the correct tyre pressure to suit the vehicle load.
• Always Inflate all tyres to the correct tyre pressure before every journey.
• If driven with Insufficient pressure, the tyre flexes more. This could warm up the tyre to such an extent that the tread may separate and the tyre could burst.
• High speeds and overloading of the vehi-cle may cause the tyres to heat up to such an extent that the tyre bursts, leading you to lose control of the vehicle.

A WARNING (Continued)
• If the tyre pressure Is too low or too high, the tyres will wear prematurely and the vehl-cle will not handle well.
• If the tyre Is not flat and it Is not necessary to change the wheel immediately, drive at low speed to the nearest qualified workshop and check and correct the tyre pressure.
A WARNING
Failure to observe illuminated warning lamps and text messages can lead to your vehicle breaking down In traffic, and can cause acci-dent and serious injury.
• Never ignore any illuminated warning lamps or text messages.
• Stop the vehicle as soon as possible and when safe to do so.
