The Rear Traffic Alert is not a substitute for careful and attentive driving.
Never use the system when visibility is limited or in complex traffic situations, for example, on
heavily traveled roads or when there are multiple lanes.
Always watch for people, especially small children, bicycles, animals, and objects, because
the Rear Traffic Alert may not always be able to detect them. Rear Traffic Alert cannot detect
people, animals, and things that are moving slowly or not at all.
The Rear Traffic Alert does not always brake the vehicle to a complete stop.
The harsh automatic braking will be uncomfortable for many people, and if you or your pas‐
sengers have special conditions or sensitivities, particularly in the neck, you may want to
switch off Rear Traffic Alert.
NOTE
The radar sensors in the rear bumper can be damaged or become misaligned in low-speed
impacts and parking maneuvers. The system can switch itself off or may be impaired as a
result.
Always keep the rear bumper clean and free of snow and ice so that the radar sensors can
work properly. Do not cover the radar sensor area.
The rear bumper may only be painted with vehicle paint that is approved by Volkswagen.
Other paints may make the Rear Traffic Alert system work improperly or cause it to
malfunction.
A Declaration of Compliance with the United States FCC and Industry Canada regulations is on
⇒Declaration of Compliance, Telecommunications and Electronic Systems .
You must switch off Rear Traffic Alert manually when towing a trailer if the system does not deac‐
tivate automatically.
