Volkswagen Jetta 2019 Owner's Manual

JE T TA

2019

TO­ TA L

- LY

The 2019 Jetta has been re-designed with everything you want, from
looks and style to comfort and substance. Not to mention just the right
amount of ambience and edge.

RE­ MIX

-ED

R-Line

The available R-Line trim gives the Jetta a
sportier look, from the front grille and rear
bumper to the black headliner and two-tone
leatherette seating surfaces. Add 17" R-Line
alloy wheels and black exterior mirrors, and
you’re sure to draw a crowd.

LED headlights & Daytime Running Lights

These attractive available projector LED
headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights
(

DRL) bring a nice touch of style.

LED taillights

Sure, they look great, but that’s only part of the
story. They’re also efficient and long-lasting.

10-color customizable interior ambient lighting

Having 10 colors of ambient light is a first for
Volkswagen, and this available feature can
change the mood inside instantly.

Driver-focused interior

We call it a driver-focused interior. You’ll call it
the “I can’t believe I get all this cool stuff interior.”
Either way, you’ll wish you had a longer commute.

Panoramic sunroof

Nothing like an available power panoramic
sunroof that tilts and slides to shine a little
natural light on your drive.

Ventilated leather seating surfaces

Available for the front seats, these ventilated
surfaces help cool you down when the weather
gets warm.

Heated seats

Not only can you stay warm on chilly evenings,
but so can your front passenger.

Two-tone V-Tex leatherette seats

Comfort, say hi to style. Available only on the
R-Line, these two-tone seats feel like leather
and look great too, thanks to Titan Black
bolsters and perforated Storm Gray inserts.

BABY

BASS

Innovative technology
features help enhance the
driving experience without
getting in the way. It’s tech
with a purpose, not just
tech for the sake of tech.

BeatsAudio™

The Jetta is the first Volkswagen in the U.S. ever
to offer available BeatsAudio. So prepare your
playlist for sound you can feel.

Volkswagen Digital Cockpit

Measuring more than 10", this available screen
displays your information digitally in high resolution.
You can customize what’s displayed, from speed,
estimated fuel economy, and travel time to route
guidance, assistance systems, and elevation.

VW Car-Net App-Connect*

VW Car-Net App-Connect allows you to
connect your compatible smartphone with
Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, or MirrorLink®
to access select apps on the touchscreen display.
From streaming music to mobile apps, they can
be accessed on the touchscreen.

8" touchscreen navigation

Besides looking great, the available sleek glass
display helps make the map more prominent,
while dynamic route guidance assists you with
turn-by-turn information.

FE ATU RE S

The Jetta can store up to four driver profiles,

*Always pay careful attention to the road, and do not drive while distracted. Not all features available on all operating systems. Standard text and data usage rates apply.

MORE HELP BEHIND
THE SCENES

Whether they’re helping you stay in your lane
or brake more forcefully, the available Driver
Assistance features can help give you more
confidence on your drive.

High Beam Control (Light Assist)*

Available High Beam Control (Light Assist) helps provide
better visibility on dark roads by turning on your high beams
at certain speeds. A camera mounted at the base of the
rearview mirror turns your high beams on when conditions
warrant it on dark or poorly lit roads. It then turns them
off again if another car approaches or drives in front of you.

Rear Traffic Alert*

The available Rear Traffic Alert comes in handy when you’re
backing up. It has sensors that can alert you to vehicles
crossing in your path when in reverse, and can even help
brake the vehicle if needed.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*

Available Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps maintain
a preset distance from the car in front of you. When
activated, if the car in front of you speeds up or slows
down, the sensors can detect the change and your car
follows suit..

Blind Spot Monitor*

When driving, if you attempt to change lanes, the Blind Spot
Monitor can help alert you to cars that may be in your blind
spot. The Active Blind Spot Monitor (available when vehicle
is equipped with Lane Assist) on select models can also
counter-steer within the limits of Lane Assist to help keep
you in your lane if you attempt to change lanes when a
vehicle is in your blind spot. In addition to the visual warning
in the side mirrors, the steering wheel can vibrate.

*Driver Assistance features are not a substitute for attentive driving. Please see Owner’s Manual for further details and important limitations. Each image shown is a dramatization for illustration purposes only.

Lane Keeping System (Lane Assist)*

When moving, the available Lane Keeping System (Lane
Assist) can sense if you start to drift into another lane without
using the turn signal. Within the limits of the system, Lane
Assist can help steer to help keep you in the current lane.

Forward Collision Warning and Autonomous Emergency
Braking (Front Assist)*

The available Forward Collision Warning (included in Front
Assist) system has a radar sensor in the front to help
monitor traffic and can alert you acoustically and visually to
a potential front-end collision with the vehicle moving
ahead. If it senses that a collision is imminent, Autonomous
Emergency Braking (included in Front Assist) can support
the driver with increased brake pressure or, if the driver
does not react at all, it can apply the brakes automatically.

Turbocharged engine

In the small sedan world, great performance
can require an upgrade. Not in the Jetta.
Turbocharged exhilaration comes standard.

Cross Differential System XDS®

Available only on the R-Line, this feature can
apply braking pressure when needed to the
inside front wheel during turns. The result: more
accurate cornering.

Driving Mode Selection

With this available feature, you can control your
drive. Eco, Normal, Sport, and Custom driving
modes each offer a different feel and response.
Choose your favorite and take over.

8-speed automatic transmission
with Sport mode

This available feature offers eight speeds, which
improves performance and efficiency compared
to previous generations of Jetta.

doors, and activate the hazard lights. It helps

)

Automatic Post-Collision Braking System

Not every collision brings a car to stop. That’s
why our vehicles include the Automatic
Post-Collision Braking System. It can also help
slow the vehicle down after a collision, helping
reduce the chance of any additional impacts.

‡‡

Seven stability-enhancing systems

From Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution
(

EBD), which helps maintain appropriate
stopping power during a hard-braking
situation, to Electronic Stability Control (ESC),
which can adjust engine throttle and apply
corrective forces to the wheels that need
them most, your vehicle is equipped with a
total of seven stability-enhancing systems.

Cost of ownership

The 6 years or 72,000 miles New Vehicle
Limited Warranty reduces the cost of owning
a Volkswagen.

†

Peace of mind

Every Volkswagen is designed with quality in
mind. So our 6 years/72,000 miles (whichever
occurs first) New Vehicle Limited Warranty
isn’t just extensive, it’s proof of our confidence.*

Coverage

You’re covered by the warranty for 6 years or
72,000 miles (whichever comes first).*

The smart choice

Considering the length of the virtual bumper-to­bumper coverage and the ability to transfer the
remainder of the coverage to the next owner,
The People First Warranty beats the competition

Transferable

Your vehicle remains covered even if transferred
to a new owner. So long as the vehicle is less than
6 years old and has traveled fewer than 72,000
miles, the remainder of the warranty coverage
transfers to the subsequent vehicle owner.*

Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty

In general, the warranty provides practically
bumper-to-bumper coverage for repairs to
correct a defect in manufacturer’s material
or workmanship (i.e., mechanical defects).*

every time.*

Response System (ICRS) will only activate in a collision where the airbags deploy or safety belt pretensioners activate. Not all collisions cause airbags to deploy or safety belt pretensioners to activate. ‡Airbags are supplemental restraints only and will not deploy under all crash circumstances. Always use safety belts and seat children only in
the rear, using restraint systems appropriate for their size and age. ‡‡The features discussed are designed to help mitigate the effects of certain collisions, and are not a substitute for attentive driving. Please see Owner’s Manual for further details and important limitations.
