With some equipment levels, some settings and displays may also appear in the Infotainment
system.
If several warnings are present, the symbols will appear for several seconds, one after another. The
symbols will continue to appear until the faults are rectified.
If warning messages about malfunctions are displayed when the ignition is switched on, it may not
be possible to adjust some settings as described, or the information display may appear differently.
If this is the case, take the vehicle to a qualified workshop to have the malfunctions rectified.
Instrument cluster menus
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction
The content and layout of the menus and displays depend on the vehicle electronics and the level of
vehicle equipment.
A qualified workshop can program and modify other functions depending on the vehicle equipment
level. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
Some menu options can be accessed only when the vehicle is stationary.

Dynamic Road Sign Display (Sign Assist)
Fig. 14 On the instrument cluster display: examples of recognised speed limits and overtaking
restrictions with accompanying additional signs.
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction
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 towing or 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. 14 and 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
⇒ Instrument cluster .

WARNING
The intelligent technology used by the Dynamic Road Sign Display cannot overcome the laws of
physics, and functions only within the limits of the system. Do not let the extra convenience afforded
by the Dynamic Road Sign Display system tempt you into taking any risks when driving. The system is
not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.
Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
Poor visibility, darkness, snow, rain and fog can cause road signs not to be displayed or to be
incorrectly displayed by the system.
If the camera's field of view is dirty, covered or damaged, the function of the Dynamic Road Sign
Display system may be impaired.
WARNING
Driving recommendations and traffic symbols displayed by the Dynamic Road Sign Display system
may differ from the current traffic situation.
Not all road signs can be recognised by the system and displayed correctly.
Road signs on the road and traffic regulations have priority over the recommendations and displays
provided by the Dynamic Road Sign Display system.
NOTICE
Availability of the Dynamic Road Sign Display function is limited in waypoint mode (waypoint
navigation) of the Infotainment system.
Some settings can be saved in the user accounts of the personalisation function and can therefore
change automatically when the user account is changed ⇒ Personalisation .
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Vehicle settings menu

⇒ Personalisation
The Infotainment system combines key vehicle systems in a central operating unit, e.g. menu
settings, radio or navigation system.
General information on operation
The following section contains relevant information on the settings that can be adjusted in the
Vehicle settings menu. Basic information on operating the Infotainment system and on warning and
safety instructions is contained in a separate manual ⇒BookletInfotainment system,.
Systems settings and vehicle information display
After pressing the button or touching the function button followed by the Vehicle function
button, touch the corresponding function buttons to display information or make settings. The
current status of systems can be checked or system faults displayed by touching the function

WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Operating the Infotainment system can
distract you from the road.
delete them at any time. These data are transmitted to third parties only at your request, in
particular in relation to the use of online services and in accordance with your personal settings.
You can store convenience settings (personalisation) in the vehicle and change them at any time.
Depending on the equipment in the vehicle, this includes, for example:
ning system settings.
Integration of mobile devices
If your vehicle contains the necessary equipment, you can connect your mobile device or any other
mobile end device to your vehicle so that you can control this device via the controls integrated in
the vehicle when the corresponding functions are available. For example, images and sounds from
the mobile device can be output through the Infotainment system. At the same time, certain
information is sent to your mobile device. This includes location data and further general vehicle
information, depending on the type of integration. For more details, refer to the information about
display of apps in the Infotainment system.
This enables selected apps on the mobile device to be used in the vehicle, e.g. navigation or music
player. The mobile device and vehicle do not interact in any other ways than those described here,
in particular the device does not actively access vehicle data. The type of further data processing
depends on the app provider. The settings that you can make here depend on the app in question
and the operating system of your mobile device.
Third-party providers
If your vehicle is equipped with a connection to a mobile network, your vehicle will be able to
exchange data with other systems. The vehicle can be connected to a mobile network using a
transmitter and receiver unit in the vehicle or using your own mobile device. This mobile network
connection enables you to use online functions. This includes online services and apps provided by
Volkswagen or other third-party providers.
Manufacturer services
In the case of Volkswagen online services, Volkswagen describes the respective functions in a
suitable place, e.g. in a separate service description or on an Internet page, and the associated
privacy information is provided. Personal data may be used to perform online services. For this, data
are exchanged over a secure connection, e.g. using the designated IT systems of the manufacturer.
Any collection, processing and use of personal data that goes beyond the provision of the service
takes place exclusively according to legal regulations, contractual agreements or the necessary
permission.
You can activate and deactivate the services and functions, some of which charge a fee, and, in some
cases, also disable the vehicle's entire data connection. This does not apply to any functions and
services required by law, e.g. emergency call systems.
Third-party services
If you are able to use online services provided by a party other than the manufacturer, these services
are the sole responsibility of the provider in question and are subject to this provider's privacy policy
