WARNING
Poor visibility increases the risk of collisions and other accidents that cause serious
personal injuries.
Always make sure all windows are clear of ice, snow and condensation for good visibility
to the front, sides, and rear.
Maximum heating output and defrosting performance are not possible until the engine has
reached operating temperature. Wait until you have good visibility before driving off.
Always make sure you know how to properly use the climate control system as well as the
rear window defroster that you will need for good visibility.
Never use air recirculation for long periods of time. When the air conditioner is off and
recirculation mode is on, condensation can quickly form on the windows and greatly reduce
visibility.
Always switch off recirculation mode when it is not needed.
WARNING
Stale air causes driver fatigue and reduces driver alertness, which can cause accidents,
collisions and serious personal injury.
Never switch off the fan for a long period of time and never use air recirculation for a long
period of time because no fresh air will enter the passenger compartment.
NOTICE
If you think the air conditioner is not working properly or may be damaged, switch it off to
help prevent more damage. Have the air conditioner checked by an authorized Volkswagen
dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Air conditioner repair requires specialized knowledge and special tools. Volkswagen
recommends that you see an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen
Service Facility.
Do not smoke when air recirculation is switched on. Smoke drawn into the ventilation
system can leave residue on the evaporator and on the dust and pollen active carbon filter,
resulting in permanent odors whenever the air conditioner is switched on.
If the air conditioner is switched off, the fresh outside air will not be dehumidified. To help keep
the windows from fogging over, Volkswagen recommends leaving the air conditioner (compressor)
switched on. Press the button. The indicator light in the button must come on.
When it is very hot and humid outside, water condensation can drip from the air conditioner
evaporator and form a puddle under the vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate a leak.
Keep the air intake slots in front of the windshield free of ice, snow, and leaves in order to
maintain proper functioning of the heating and ventilation systems.
Maximum heating output and defrosting performance are not possible until the engine has
reached operating temperature.

The engine is not running.
The fan is switched off.
The air conditioner fuse has blown.
The outside air temperature is colder than about +38 °F (+3 °C).
The air conditioner compressor has been temporarily switched off due to excessive engine coolant
temperature.
There is another malfunction in the vehicle. Have the air conditioner checked by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Special considerations
When it is very hot and humid outside, water condensation can drip from the air conditioner
evaporator and form a puddle under the vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate a leak.
The climate control system adjusts the passenger compartment temperature as fast as possible
considering the outside temperature.
Due to residual moisture in the air conditioner, the windshield may fog up after the engine is
started. Switch on the windshield defroster to help evaporate the condensation as quickly as possible.
The air coming out of the vents flows through the passenger compartment and through the air
vents below the rear side windows. Do not cover these slots with clothing or other things.

More information:
Exterior views
Fuel
Working in the engine compartment
WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fuel is dangerous and can cause fire, explosion, and severe
burns.
Always make sure that the fuel filler cap is screwed on all the way. This helps keep fuel
from spilling out or evaporating.
Fuel is highly flammable and explosive; it can cause severe burns and other severe
injuries.
Failure to shut the engine off while refueling and/or to insert the pump nozzle all the way
into the fuel filler neck can cause fuel to overflow and to spray out. Fuel spray and
overflowing fuel are dangerous because they can cause fire and serious personal injury.
During refueling, the engine and the ignition must be switched off for safety reasons.
Never use a mobile telephone, CB radio, or other radio equipment while refueling. The
electromagnetic radiation can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and cause a fire.
Never get back into your vehicle while refueling. If in exceptional circumstances you must
get back in your vehicle while refueling, make certain that you close the door and touch metal
to discharge static electricity before touching the filler nozzle again. This helps avoid the
buildup of static electricity, which can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors released
during refueling.
Never smoke or have an open flame (or sparks, cigarettes, or other smoldering objects)
anywhere in or near your vehicle when refueling or filling a portable fuel container.
Follow all safety instructions and procedures that apply at the service station where you
refuel.
Never spill fuel in the vehicle or the luggage compartment.
WARNING
Even if empty, portable fuel containers can leak and cause a fire and serious personal
injuries, especially in a crash.
For your safety, we strongly recommend that you do not travel with a portable fuel
container in your vehicle.
If, under exceptional circumstances, you must transport a portable fuel container, please
observe the following:
– Never fill a portable fuel container while it is anywhere in or on the vehicle (for
example, in the luggage compartment). Static electricity can build up while filling and can
ignite fuel vapors, causing a fire.
– Always place a portable fuel container on the ground before filling. Never spill fuel
inside the vehicle or luggage compartment. Fuel vapors are highly flammable.
– Always keep the filler nozzle completely inside the portable container before and
during filling.
– If filling a portable container made of metal, the filler nozzle must always be in contact
with the container. This will help prevent static electricity from discharging and causing a
fire.
– Always observe local and state or provincial laws about the use, storage, and
transportation of portable fuel containers.
– Make certain that the portable fuel container meets industry standards, such as
ANSI/ASTM F852-86.
NOTICE
Remove fuel spills from the vehicle immediately to help prevent damage to the paint, tires,
and wheel housings.
Refueling with gasoline when your vehicle has a diesel engine or refueling with diesel fuel
when your vehicle has a gasoline engine can cause very serious and expensive engine and
fuel system damage that is not covered by any Volkswagen Limited Warranty.
If you put any amount of incorrect fuel in the fuel tank, do not start the engine under any
circumstances. Immediately contact the nearest authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance. These fuels contain substances that can severely
damage the fuel system and the engine if the engine is started.
Vehicles with diesel engines must never be refueled or driven with gasoline, kerosene,
heating oil, or other non-specified fuels that have not been expressly approved for use with the
diesel engine. Other kinds of fuel will cause serious damage to the fuel system and the engine
that is not covered by any Volkswagen Limited Warranty.
Fuels can pollute the environment. Spilled fuel must be collected and disposed of properly,
following all applicable environmental regulations.
There is no emergency release for the fuel filler flap. Contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or
an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.

that the fuel filler cap is not properly closed, stop the vehicle in a safe place and switch off the engine
and the ignition.
Open the fuel filler flap and take the fuel filler cap off the filler neck. Then put the fuel filler cap back on
the filler neck and screw it on clockwise until you clearly hear a clicking sound. Close the fuel filler flap.
After switching on the ignition, the indicator light
may stay on or the text message may still appear
in the instrument cluster display, even if the fuel filler cap is now properly closed. This is normal and no
reason to take your vehicle in for service.
If, however, the malfunction indicator light
also comes on, drive to your nearest authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility and have the fuel system and the
engine checked.
WARNING
Driving with a fuel tank that is almost empty can lead to stalling in traffic, a collision, and
serious personal injuries.
When the fuel tank is almost empty, fuel supply to the engine can be interrupted,
especially when driving over bumps, across slopes, and up and down hills.
Steering and braking assistance as well as ESC and related systems will not work if the
engine “sputters” or stalls due to lack of fuel.
Always refuel when the tank is 1/4 full to reduce the risk of running out of fuel and stalling
in traffic.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in vehicle damage.
Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty. The irregular fuel supply can cause the
engine to misfire. This allows unburned fuel to get into the exhaust system and damage the
catalytic converter or the diesel particulate filter.

Always stop refueling once the pump nozzle switches off so that the tank does not
overflow.
NOTICE
Remove fuel spills from all vehicle surfaces immediately to help prevent damage to the paint,
tires, and wheel housings.
Fuel spills may pollute the environment.
Misfueling guard for diesel vehicles
Fig. 160 With open fuel cap: Misfueling guard in the fuel filler neck.
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
The fuel filler neck of diesel vehicles is equipped with a misfueling guard
⇒
fig. 160
. The misfueling
guard helps prevent filling the fuel tank of a diesel vehicle with gasoline, because the guard makes it
difficult to insert any type of filler nozzle other than the type commonly used for diesel fuel.
Damaged, worn out, or incorrect nozzles, as well as other means of refueling (portable fuel containers,
for example) will generally not open the misfueling guard and fuel from these sources cannot easily
flow into the tank. Using these incorrect or non-standard nozzles to refuel your diesel vehicle can
cause fuel spills, which can cause fires, explosions, burns, and other severe injuries.
The misfueling guard can generally only be properly opened with a correct nozzle from a standard
diesel fuel pump. Under certain circumstances it may be necessary to turn the nozzle back and forth
slightly with light pressure to open the misfueling guard. If the misfueling guard cannot be opened this
way, see the nearest authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility and
have the fuel system checked.
WARNING
Spilled fuel can cause fires, explosions, burns, and other severe injuries.
Do not refuel from devices other than correct, undamaged standard diesel fuel pump
nozzles.
Always stop refueling once the pump nozzle switches off so that the tank does not
overflow.
NOTICE
It is your responsibility to put the right fuel in your vehicle and any damage that results
from using the wrong fuel is not covered under the Emissions warranties or any other
Volkswagen Limited Warranty.
If you put any amount of the wrong fuel in the fuel tank, do not start the engine under any
circumstances. Immediately contact the nearest authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.
If diesel fuel should get on any rubber hose, it must be wiped off immediately. The same
applies if diesel fuel gets onto other parts of the vehicle, especially paint, tires, or a plastic
part. Wash the contaminated vehicle parts right away with soap and warm water to help
prevent leaks and serious damage.
NOTICE
Never force a fuel nozzle in the diesel misfueling guard. Forcing a fuel nozzle in the misfueling
guard can damage it so that it can no longer help prevent misfueling.
If you have problems inserting a diesel fuel nozzle, please check to make sure you are
using the right kind of diesel fuel.
If you must refuel with a non-standard diesel fuel nozzle, an adapter is available from
Volkswagen to allow refueling. Contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance. Only use an adapter approved by Volkswagen for
your vehicle.
