1) Do not use Rear Assist in the following situations:
– If the driver is not familiar with the system.
– If the position or angle of the camera has changed, such as after a rear-end collision. Have the
system checked by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
2) Examples of optical distortion by the camera:
The Rear Assist camera displays only two-dimensional images. Recesses and protruding objects on
the ground or protruding parts on other vehicles are difficult or impossible to identify due to the lack
of depth of field.
Objects or another vehicle may seem closer or farther away on the screen than they really are:
– When driving from a level surface onto an upward or downward slope.
– When driving up or down a slope onto a level surface.
– If the rear of the vehicle is heavily loaded.
– When approaching protruding objects. These objects can disappear from the field of view when
backing up.

Volkswagen recommends practicing parking with Rear Assist in a safe place with little or no

with the system, the orientation lines and the way they work.
Rear Assist does not work when the luggage compartment lid is open.
