 Driver assist systems are electronic aids which make driving much safer and more convenient for the driver.
Radar eyes which measure distances, sensors which allow the vehicle to park itself, and cameras which read traffic
signs hightech helpers like these are no longer reserved for the luxury vehicle class. Over the last few years, the
development of electronic driver assist systems has made rapid progress, and they have now finally arrived in the
compact class.
This Self-study Programme informs the reader about the driver assist systems installed in the Golf 2013 and how
they function.

in 1900, superseding tiller steering and bell cranks.
The very first seat belt was patented in 1903.
The invention of the anti-lock braking system (ABS) in
the sixties provided an important step for increasing
safety when driving and reducing the number of
accidents. Scientific studies have, however, revealed
that over 50% of all collisions are caused by the
driver's delayed response, or failure to react, to
danger. The weakest link in the chain when reacting
to dangerous situations is, and will remain, the driver.

The driver always retains the ability to actively override the driver assist systems or switch them off
manually.

 Cruise Control System (CCS)

The speed limiter has the task of limiting the speed of the vehicle to a preset maximum speed, even when the driver
is trying to travel faster by pushing down on the accelerator.

the preferred speed and warning messages, is
displayed in the dash panel insert (also see page 13
ff Operation and Display).
The ACC driving mode (Normal, Eco, Sport) and the
distance to the driver in front when the vehicle is in
motion can be configured in the infotainment system.
The adaptive cruise control unit J428 transmits the
target value required for maintaining the preferred
speed, and the distance to the vehicle in front
required for vehicle acceleration, to the engine
control unit. This, in turn, takes charge of coordinating
the acceleration and braking.

reached or exceeded due to the driving situation, the
driver will be informed of this and will be visually
prompted to take charge of the function.
Operating limits
If the ability of the radar sensor to detect objects is
impaired by heavy rain, snow or dirt, then the
adaptive cruise control and the speed limiter will be
deactivated automatically. ACC no sensor image
appears in the dash panel insert. As soon as the cause
of the impairment has been eliminated, the driver can
reactivate the ACC regulation.

Adaptive Cruise Control unit J428

The adaptive cruise control unit J428 has been

installed in the front bumper, allowing the traffic
situation in front of the vehicle to be monitored. A
radar sensor is integrated into the control unit.
A heating device integrated into the sensor surface is
used to prevent or reduce the formation of ice and
snow deposits, and therefore avoid impairing the
sensor vision. The heating is a component of the radar
sensor and is activated when the temperature falls
below +5 C.

 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

Normal operation

If no other vehicle is driving in front, then ACC operates just like a cruise control system. If the radar sensor detects
another vehicle driving in front in the same lane, then ACC will decelerate as required and maintain the preset
interval from the vehicle driving in front. In combination with a dual clutch gearbox (DSG), the vehicle can be
decelerated automatically until at a standstill and held there.
