If the automatic braking intervention is undesired or occurs too frequently, switch off the parking system temporarily and
manoeuvre the vehicle carefully, e.g. when driving off-road or driving into a garage.
The parking manoeuvre will be aborted after emergency braking by Park Assist due to an obstacle.
After emergency braking by the Rear Traffic Alert, around 10 seconds must elapse before automatic braking intervention can
take place again.

Fault displays
1. Observe the text messages on the display of the digital instrument cluster and in the Infotainment system.
NOTICE
The vehicle may be damaged if the parking system is used in spite of a fault in the sensors or cameras or restricted detection ranges.
● In the event of a fault in the parking system, go to a suitably qualified workshop. Volkswagen recommends using an authorised
Volkswagen repairer.
No screen display of parking function after activation
The parking system was switched on or activated and the Infotainment system display does not change to the function-specific screen
(e.g. the segment display of Park Distance Control or the camera display of Park Assist Plus).
1. Switch the parking system off and then back on again.
2. If the screen display still does not appear, there is a fault in the system. Go to a suitably qualified workshop. Volkswagen
recommends using an authorised Volkswagen repairer.
