Trip memory functions

When the ignition is switched on, you can display different types of information in the instrument

cluster.

Buttons on the windshield wiper lever operate the menus for the instrument cluster.

The number of menus in the instrument cluster display depends on the electronics and equipment on

the vehicle.

An authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility may be able to add or

modify functions depending on your vehicle's equipment.

Some menu items can only be accessed when the vehicle is not moving.

As long as a priority 1 warning message is displayed, no menus can be accessed. To display menus,

press the ꢀꢁꢂꢃꢄꢅꢄꢆ button on the windshield wiper lever.
