First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
When the start/stop system is active, the engine is switched off whenever the vehicle is stationary.
The engine then restarts automatically as soon as it is required.
The function is automatically activated every time the ignition is switched on. The instrument cluster
display shows information about the current status ⇒ Indicator lamps.
Always switch off the start/stop system manually when driving through water.

Please contact a qualified workshop if there is a fault in the system. Volkswagen
recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
Volkswagen recommends that drivers practise using the ParkPilot in a traffic-calmed area or
car park to allow them to familiarise themselves with the system and its functions.
Operating ParkPilot

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The ParkPilot uses ultraound sensors to determine the distance between the rear bumper and an
obstacle. There are 3 ultrasound sensors in the rear bumper ⇒ Fig. 104 (arrowsyf.

FunctionWhat to do when the ignition is switched on
Switching on the
ParkPilot
automatically:
Select reverse gear or move the selector lever to position R.
The ParkPilot cannot replace the full concentration of the driver.

Driving downhill with CCS
If the CCS cannot maintain the vehicle speed when driving downhill, brake the vehicle with the foot
brake and shift down gear if necessary.
Automatic switch-off
The CCS control will be switched off automatically or switched off temporarily:

If, in a potential collision scenario, the city emergency brake function detects that the driver is
applying the brakes with insufficient pressure, the system can increase the brake pressure in order
to reduce speed ahead of the collision. Hence the system can help minimise the consequences of
an accident.

Special driving situations

Fig. 111 Vehicles changing lanes
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The city emergency brake function has physical and system-specific limits. In certain situations, the
driver may therefore feel that the city emergency brake function reacts too late or unexpectedly.
You should therefore always be prepared to take full control of the vehicle if necessary.
The following driving situations demand particular vigilance:
When driving through bends
When driving into or out of a long bend, the laser sensor may react to a vehicle in the adjacent lane
⇒ Fig. 110A and thus brake the vehicle. The braking effect can be stopped by pressing the
accelerator or clutch pedal or by steering the vehicle.
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
recognised by the laser sensor once they have entered the range of the sensor ⇒ Fig. 110B. This
particularly applies to narrow vehicles such as motorcycles.
When other vehicles change lanes
Vehicles that are very close to you when they move into your lane could cause the city emergency
brake function to be applied unexpectedly ⇒ Fig. 111. The braking effect can be stopped by
pressing the accelerator or clutch pedal or by steering the vehicle.
Possible laser sensor function impairments
The city emergency brake function will switch off temporarily if the function of the laser sensor is
impaired due to heavy rain, spray, snow or mud, for example. The indicator lamp will flash in
the instrument cluster display.
The city emergency brake function is ready to work again as soon as the laser sensor returns to
normal function. The indicator lamp goes out.
The following conditions could prevent the city emergency brake function
from reacting:
\f

Keep the air intake slots in front of the windscreen free of snow, ice and leaves to ensure
heating and cooling is not impaired, and to prevent the windows from misting over.

Rear window heating
The button for the rear window heating is located in the centre console. The rear window
heating only functions when the engine is running and will switch off automatically after
approximately 10 minutes.
Stale air can quickly cause tiredness and lack of concentration in the driver, which in turn can
cause collisions, accidents and serious injuries.
