No sensor visibility, fault message, system switches itself off
Park Assist is switched off permanently if one of the sensors has failed.
—Clean the sensors or remove stickers or accessories from the sensors and cameras (→ Vehicle care, exterior).
—Check whether any damage is visible.
Possible solution
—Switch off the system temporarily.
—Check whether any of the causes described apply.
—You can switch the system back on again once you have rectified the cause of the problem.
—If the system still fails to respond as expected, have the system checked by a qualified workshop or a Volkswagen
Commercial Vehicles dealership.
Automatic cancellation of driving in/out of a parking space
Park Assist automatically cancels a parking procedure if one of the following criteria is met:
—The
function button is pressed.
—A speed of around 7 km/h (4 mph) is exceeded for a second time during the same parking procedure after a speed
reduction.
—The driver intervenes using the steering wheel.
—The parking procedure was not completed within approximately six minutes of activating the automatic steering
intervention.
—There is a system fault(system is temporarily unavailable).
—TCS is switched off.
—TCS or ESC actively intervene.
Automatic braking intervention to minimise damage
In some countries, Park Assist can assist the driver with an automatic braking intervention in certain situations
(→ Park Assist).
Depending on the vehicle equipment and certain conditions, e.g. weather, load or inclination of the vehicle, Park
Assist can automatically brake the vehicle before an obstacle. Following this intervention, the driver must depress the
brake pedal.
The parking manoeuvre is ended if an automatic braking intervention occurs.
Introduction
Trailer Assist helps the driver when reversing or manoeuvring the vehicle when towing a trailer.
The trailer manoeuvring system steers a trailer and is operated by pushing and pulling the switch for setting the
exterior mirror. The driver must control the accelerator, gear changes and brake!
