Volkswagen Golf Owners Manual: Automatic brake intervention
First read and observe the introductory information
and safety warnings
The park assist system helps the driver by braking automatically. The automatic braking does not replace the driver's responsibility for the accelerator, brake and clutch .
A parking manoeuvre will be interrupted if a speed of approximately 7 km/h (4 mph) is exceeded.
Automatic brake intervention to avoid excess speed
An automatic brake intervention may occur to prevent the vehicle from exceeding a speed of approximately 7 km/h (4 mph). The parking manoeuvre can be continued after the automatic brake intervention.
The automatic brake intervention takes place once per parking manoeuvre and no more. A parking manoeuvre will be interrupted if a speed of approximately 7 km/h (4 mph) is exceeded.
Automatic brake intervention to minimise damage
When approaching an obstacle, automatic braking intervention may occur. The Park Assist system may bring the vehicle to a standstill before the obstacle under certain conditions, e.g. weather, ultrasound detection, conditions of the car, load or incline.
- Depress the brake pedal !
The Park Assist system is ended following an automatic brake intervention to minimise damage.
WARNING
- You should always be prepared to brake the vehicle yourself.
- Automatic braking assistance is ended after approximately 1.5 seconds. Brake the vehicle yourself following the automatic braking intervention.
