The service intervals are calculated on an individual basis in vehicles with flexible service. Advances in technology have brought about a considerable reduction in servicing requirements. An oil
change service must only be carried out when required by the vehicle. The individual conditions in
which the vehile is used, as the driver's personal
driving style, are taken into account. The service
reminder is displayed 30 days before the service is
due. The distance is rounded to the nearest
100 km; the remaining time is rounded to full days.

General notes
If a valid vehicle key is in the operating range
~ Fig . 30, the Keyless Access locking and starting
system authorises the key to obtain access to the
vehicle as soon as the corresponding sensor on
the driver or front passenger door handle or the
Volkswagen badge in the tailgate is activate~ . The
following functions can then be performed w1thout
active use of the vehicle key:
Fig. 31 K yl ss Access locking and starting system: sensor for locking on the inside of the door
handle and s nsor@ for unlocking on the outside
of the door handle
Keyless Entry: unlocks the vehicle vi the sensor in the door handle on t11e driver or front passenger door or the Volkswagen b dge on the tailgate.
Keyless Go: allows you to start the engine and
drive. To do this, there must be a valid vehicle key
inside the vehicle, and the starter button must be
pressed => page 163.
Keyless Exit: locks the vehicle via the door handle sensor on the driver or front passenger door.
The cen tral locking system functions as with the
normal unlocking and locking system. Only the
control elements are different.
The vehicle unlocking procedure is confirmed by
all the turn signals fl ashing twice and the locking
procedure by the turn signals fl ashing once.
The vehicle will lock again within a few s conds of
being unlocked if you do not open one of the doors
or the tailgate.

lt is possible that the sensors in the door handles will be activated by a powerful jet of water
or steam if a valid vehicle key is within its operating range at the same time. If at least one
window is open and the sensor@ (arrow) in a
door handle is activated permanently, all windows close. lt is possible that all windows will
open if the jet of water or steam is moved away
from the door handle sensor (arrow) briefly
and then moved back onto it =>page 50, Convenience functions.

WARNING (Continued)
Always monitor the area around the vehicle as the ultrasound sensors will not always
detect infants, animals and objects.
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. In certain
circumstances, the system may not recognise people or objects.
WARNING
~-
Automatic activation of the ParkPilot only occurs at very low speeds. An inappropriate
driving style can cause accidents and serious
injuries.
Always bear in mind the time delay between the signals.

WARNING
2o 1
CD
The ultrasound sensors should only be
sprayed briefly when cleaning with pressure
hoses and steam cleaners. A distance of more
than 10 cm between the ultrasound sensors
and the steam/hose nozzle must be observed.
Sources of noise can lead to errors in the
ParkPilot system, e.g. rough asphalt, cobblestones, induction loops, building equipment, or
interference from other vehicles.
Any equipment that has been retrofitted to
the vehicle, e.g. bicycle carriers, can prevent
the ParkPilot from functioning properly.

Operating ParkPilot
Fig. 147 ParkPilot ultrasound sensors around the vehicle, A: in the front bumper, B: in the rear bumper
The ParkPilot uses ultraound sensors to determine
the distance between the front and rear bumpers
and an obstacle. Up to 6 ultrasound sensors for
the ParkPilot (arrows) are located in both the front
(A) and rear (B) bumpers :::. Fig. 147.
The intermittent and permanent acoustic warn~ng
signals for the front ParkPilot are of a higher pitch d
than those for the rear ParkPilot. This is a standar
feature.

A WARNING
Using cameras to estimate the distance from
obstacles (persons, vehicle etc.) is inaccurate
and can cause accidents and severe injuries.
The camera lens enlarges and distorts the
field of vision and makes objects on the
screen appear to be different and imprecise.
Certain objects, for example narrow posts
or grids, may be difficult or impossible to see
on the screen because of its low resolution or
poor light conditions.
The camera has blind spots within which
obstacles and people cannot be detected.
Keep the camera lens clean, free of snow

WARNING
..
p
The Park Assist system uses parked vehicles, the kerb and other objects as guidance.
Please ensure that the wheels and tyres are not
damaged when parking the vehicle. If necessary, stop t he parking procedure in good time to
prevent damage to the vehicle.
The sensors may not always be able to detect objects such as trailer drawbars, thin rails,
fences, posts, trees and open or opening tail gates. 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 sensors as the
vehicle approaches it, particularly if the object
is very high or very low. These objects are no
longer registered. The vehicle can sustain considerable damage if the warning given by the
ParkPilot is ignored. The same applies to the
Park Assist system , for example when parki ng
behind a lorry o r a motorbike. Therefore, always check the space in front of and behind
the vehicle and stop the vehicle in good time if
necessary.

Always switch off the speed limiter after use
to avoid unintentional cruise control.
The speed limiter does not relieve the
driver of their responsibility for the speed of
the vehicle. Do not drive at full throttle if it is
not requ ired.
Use of the speed limiter in adverse weath
er conditions is dangerous and can cause serious injury, e.g. through aquaplaning, snow,
ice, or leaves. Only use the speed limiter
when the road and weather conditions allow
it to be used safely.
The speed limiter cannot limit the vehicle
speed when travelling downhill. The vehicle
speed can increase under its own weight.

situations
WARNING
Failure to switch off the ACC in the abovementioned situations can cause accidents
and result in serious injuries.
r:1
When turning off roads. driving around roundabouts, narrow curves. joining motorways, exiting
from motorways or driving through road works, to
prevent the vehicle from unnecessarily accelerating to the set speed in these situations
Failure to switch off the adaptive cruise con~ trol in the above-mentioned situations can
cause a v iolation of legal requirements.

Overtaking
If the turn signal is activated when starting an overtaking manoeuvre, the adaptive cruise control accelerates the vehicle automatically and thus reduces the distance to the vehicle in front.
If you move your vehicle into the overtaking lane
and there is no vehicle ahead of you , the ACC will
automatically increase the speed to your set level
and maintain it.
Acceleration can be stopped at any point by dePressing the brake pedal or pressing the @ button
on the multifunction steering wheel ~ page 229.
Stationary vehicles
The ACC does not detect st tionary obj cts durin
a journey, such as st tionary traffic or a vehicl
that has broken down.
If a stationary vehicle is hidden behind a vehicle
that has been detected by the adaptive cruise control and this vehicle turns off the road or changes
lane, the adaptive cruise control will not be ble to
react to the stationary vehicle Fig. 170 D . If required, brake the vehicle yourself.
Metal objects
Metal objects, such as tracks In the road or m et
plates used in roadworks, can confuse the radar
sensor and cause incorrect reactions from the
adaptive cruise control.
233
..,..
Towing a trailer
The adaptive cruise control operates with reduced
dynamics when the vehicle is towing a trailer.
Overheated brakes
If the brak~s. overheat, e.g. following heavy braking
or when dnv1ng down steep inclines for long periods , the ada~tive cruise control may be deactivated t~mpor~nly. A corresponding message will appear .m the tns~rument cluster display. lt is then not
poss1ble to act1vate the adaptive cruise control.
As soon as the temperature of the brakes has decreased sufficiently, the adaptive cruise control can
be activated again. The message in the instrument
cluster display goes out. If the message ACC not
ava i 1 ab1 e does not go out for a long time, there
is a fault. Proceed to a qualified workshop. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.

carding to the traffic situation and the driver's response. Front Assist is not a substitue for the full
concentration of the driver.
At the same time it prepares the vehicle for possible emergency braking ~ ~.
Urgent warning
If the driver fails to respond to the advance warning , the system can initiate a quick jolt of the brake
in order to draw the driver's attention to the increasing danger of a collision.
Automatic braking
The area monitoring system (Front Assist) helps to
avoid rear-end collisions.
lt uses a radar sensor to monitor traffic situations
up to a distance of approximately 120 metres in
front of the vehicle within a speed range of approximately 5 km/h (3 mph) to 210 km/h (130 mph).
The area monitoring system (Front Assist) can
warn the driver about imminent collisions, prepare the vehicle for emergency braking in case
of danger, assist with braking, and initiate automatic braking.
If the driver also fails to react to the urgent warning, the system can slow the vehicle down automatically by gradually increasing the braking force.
The system can help to reduce the consequences
of an accident by reducing the speed at which a
potential collision might take place.
Brake assistance
If Front Assist detects that the driver is not braking
sufficiently when there is a risk of collision, the system can increase the braking force and thereby
help to prevent a collision. Brake assistance works
only for as long as the brake pedal is pressed
hard.
Distance warning
If the system detects danger from driving too close
to .the vehicle in front, the system can warn the
~nver by showing a corresponding message in the
~nstrument cluster display ~page 236. The warnIng Period varies according to the traffic situation
and the driver's response . Front Assist is not a

The intelligent technology used in Front Assist cannot overcome the laws of physics.
The driver is always responsible for braking
in time. If Front Assist issues a warning, immediately apply the foot brake to slow the vehicle down or avoid the obstacle, depending
on the traffic situation.
Adapt your speed and distance from the
vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
Front Assist cannot prevent accidents and
serious injuries on its own.
Front Assist can issue unnecessary warnings and carry out unwanted braking interventions in certain complex driving situations, e.g. at traffic islands.

Changing the driving mode can alter the v ehicle handling. Never allow Driving Mode Selection to tempt you into taking any risks when
driving.
The engine and gearbox will give either a more dynamic or more balanced response to the movement of the accelerator, depending on the selected
driving mode. In vehicles with an automatic gearbox, the gear shift points and the coasting mode
will also change. An active cruise control system
(CCS) can affect the acceleration response.
