Special considerations when using Park Distance Control
x In some cases, the Park Distance Control and rear lid assist interpret water and ice on the sensors
as an obstacle.
x If the distance remains the same, the warning tone volume decreases after a few seconds. If a
continuous tone sounds, its volume remains the same.
x If the vehicle moves away from the obstacle, the beeping sound stops automatically. The beep
turns on again automatically if the vehicle approaches the obstacle again.
x For vehicles with automatic transmissions, there is no beeping when the transmission is in Park
(P).
x The volume of the audible signals can be adjusted by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an
authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
x Rear lid assist only works when the vehicle is not moving.
