Warning and information messages
The system runs a check on certain components and functions in the vehicle when the ignition is switched on or while the vehicle is in motion. Func-tional faults are indicated by red and yellow sym· bols with warning and text messages in the instru-ment cluster display (warning and indicator lamps =>page 16). An acoustic warning is also given in certain cases. Different instrument cluster designs will have different displays.
Priority 1 warning message. Red
The symbol flashes or lights up (sometimes together with a signal tone). te Do not drive onl Danger=:.&,! Check the fault and correct the cause. Seek expert assistance if neces-sary.
Priority 2 warning message. Yellow
The symbol flashes or lights up (sometimes together with a signal tone). Your vehicle could be damaged or break down if there is a fault or if service fluids are running low Check the fault as soon as possible. Seek expert assistance if necessa-ry.
Information mes-sage. Information about various procedures within the vehicle.
Mileage displays
The odomelerregisters the total distance travelled by the car.
The trip recorder(trip) shows the distance travel-led since the trip recorder was last reset. The last digit of the trip recorder indicates distances of 100 metres or tenths of a mile.
Outside temperature display
If the outside temperature falls below +4 ·c (+39.F), the temperature display also shows a "snowflake symbol"{(-. This symbol flashes and then remains constantly lit until the outside temper-ature rises above +6•c (+43.F)
If the vehicle is stationary, the supplementary heat-ing system (=>page 332) is on or the vehicle is travelling at very low speeds, the temperature dis-played may be slightly higher than the actual out-side temperature due to heat radiated from the en-gine.
The measuring range lies between -4o•c (·40.F) and +so•c (+122°F).
Compass display
When the ignition and navigation system are switched on, the instrument cluster display shows the current direction of travel.
Selector lever position
The gear selected is displayed on the side of the selector lever and on the display in the instrument cluster. The display may also show which gear has been selected if the lever is in D or 5, or in Tiptron-ic mode.
Gear-change indicator

ParkPilot
o:n Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
ParkPilot only at rear . . 288 ParkPilot front and rear . . . 289
ParkPilot signal tones and displays . 290
The Park Pilot assists the driver when
parking and manoeuvring.
The ultrasound sensors in the bumpers transmit and receive ultrasound waves. The electronic sys-tem uses the ultrasound waves (i.e. transmission, reflection from the obstacle and reception) to cal-culate the distance between the bumper and the obstacle.
Additional information and warnings:
• Exterior views =:o page 5
• Braking, stopping and parking =:o page 269
• Reversing camera (Rear Assist) =:o page 291
• Cleaning and caring for the vehicle exterior =:.page 380
• Accessories, modifications, repairs and renewal of parts =:o page 394
• Radio or navigation system =:o Booklet Radio, provision for mobile telephone, infotainment sys-tem, navigation system
A WARNING
ParkPilot technology cannot overcome sys-tem-related vehicle limitations. The ParkPilot cannot replace the full concentration of the driver.
• Unintentional vehicle movements can cause serious injury.
• Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic con-ditions.
• Ultrasound sensors have blind spots in which obstacles and people cannot be detec-ted.
• Always check the area around the vehicle as the ultrasound sensors will not always de-tect infants, animals and objects.
A WARNING (Continued)
• Certain surfaces of objects and clothes cannot reflect the signals from the ultrasound sensors. The system is unable to detect these objects or people wearing this type of clothing, or they may be detected incorrectly.
• External sources of sound can affect the signals of the ultrasound sensors. This may prevent the system from recognising people or objects.
CD
Various factors can negatively Impact the Park-Pilot functions or lead to damage to the vehicle and objects in the area surrounding the vehi-cle.
• The ultrasound sensors may not always be able to detect objects such as trailer drawbars, thin rails, fences, posts, trees and open or opening boot lids. This can result in damage to your vehicle.
• If the ParkPilot has detected an obstacle and issued a warning, the obstacle may move out of the detection range of the ultrasound sensors as the vehicle approaches it, particu-larly if the object is very high or very low. These objects are no longer registered.
• The vehicle can sustain considerable dam-age if the warning given by the ParkPiiot is ig-nored.
• Ultrasound sensors can be displaced or damaged through Impacts, e.g. when parking.
• The ultrasound sensors must be kept clean and free of ice and snow, and must not be cov-ered up by stickers or other objects, as this will prevent the system from working properly.
• Repainting the ultrasound sensors can im-pair the function of the Park Pilot.
• The ultrasound sensors should only be sprayed briefly when cleaning with pressure hoses and steam cleaners. The steam/hose nozzle must always be kept more than 10 cm away from the ultrasound sensors.
• Sources of noise can lead to errors in the ParkPilot system, e.g. rough asphalt, cobble-stones, induction loops, building equipment, or interference from other vehicles.
Driver assist systems 287
Special features of ParkPilot
• In some cases, the ParkPilot registers water and ice on the ultrasound sensors as an obstacle.
• The acoustic warning will become quieter after a few seconds if the distance remains the same. The volume will remain constant if the signal tone is continuous.
• The intermittent signal tone switches off auto-matically as soon as the vehicle moves away from an obstacle again. If the vehicle approaches the obstade again, the acoustic warning is switched on automatically.
• No acoustic signal is given in vehicles with a dual clutch gearbox DSG® if the selector lever is in position P.

While droving
• The rear ultrasound ParkPilot sensors cannot be switched on if the factory-fitted towing bracket is electrically connected to the trailer.
• A Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles dealership can adjust the volume of the acoustic warning sig-nals.
CD
Failure to observe the illuminated text messag-es can lead to the vehicle being damaged.
The areas to the front (only with ParkPilot front and rear) and rear of the vehicle are fully scanned by the ultrasound sensors.
Acoustic signals and screen
Acoustic signals are given when the vehicle ap-proaches an obstacle located in the range of the ultrasound sensors. An intermittent signal tone is given if a sufficiently short distance between the vehicle and an obstacle is detected. The shorter the distance, the shorter the intervals. The signal tone will sound continuously if the obstacle is very close.
If you continue to drive the vehide closer to the ob-sta de despite the continuous signal tone, the sys-tem will no longer be able to measure the distance.
With some vehicle equipment levels the scanned areas may be displayed as several segments in a display. The closer the vehicle drives lowards an obstacle, the closer the segment will move to the vehicle in the display. The collision area has been reached when the penultimate segment is dis-played, if not before. Do not drive onl .,..

When towing a trailer
In vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket and a trailer connected via the vehicle electrics, a cor-responding display appears on the screen of the factory-fitted radio or navigation system, depend-ing on the vehicle equipment level. The distance behind the vehicle will then no longer be shown.
Muting the ParkPilot signal tones
The acoustic signals for the ParkPilot can be mut-ed by touching the @function button on the screen (in colour display only). Touch the function button again to switch the acoustic signals back on.
