Overheating cutoff
The inverter in the 115 Volt outlet shuts off automatically above a certain temperature. The shutoff
prevents overheating in case of excessive power consumption of connected devices or at high ambi-
ent air temperatures. The 115 Volt outlet can only be used again after a cool-down period.
The plug on the connected device must first be removed and then reinserted before using the 115 volt
outlet again after the cool-down period. This prevents the connected electrical device from being
switched on accidentally.
DANGER
Improper use of the 115 Volt outlet can cause electrical shock, burns, and severe personal
injury.
Never spill liquids on the socket.
Never plug an adapter or an extension cord into the 115 Volt outlet. Otherwise, the inte-
grated childproof lock is switched off and the outlet is live.
Never stick anything that conducts electricity, such as a knitting needle, into the contacts
of the 115 Volt outlet.
NOTICE
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for connected devices!
Never exceed the maximum power consumption, or the entire vehicle electrical system may
become damaged.
115 Volt outlet:
– Do not connect devices or plugs which are too heavy, such as a grid power supply adapter or
cord, directly onto the outlet.
– Do not connect lamps containing fluorescent tubes.
– Only connect devices to the outlet with voltage consistent with the voltage of the outlet.
– For devices with a high starting current, the integrated over-current shutoff will prevent them
from being switched on. In this case, disconnect the power supply from the device and reconnect
after about 10 seconds.
Some devices may not work very well when connected to the 115 Volt outlet due to low wattage.
Unshielded devices may interfere with radio reception or the vehicle's electrical system.

WARNING
Switching off the engine while the vehicle is moving can make the vehicle harder to stop and
result in loss of vehicle control, leading to collisions and severe personal injuries.
Brake and steering assistance systems, the airbag system, safety belt pretensioners, and
other vehicle safety features only work when the engine is running.
Switch off the engine only when the vehicle is not moving.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury when starting and running the vehicle's engine:
Never start the engine or let it run in a confined or enclosed area. Engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide, a poisonous, colorless, and odorless gas. Carbon monoxide can cause
unconsciousness and death.
Never start the engine or let it run if oil, fuel, or other flammable substances are under,
around, or have leaked from the vehicle, for example, due to vehicle damage.
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running, especially when it is in gear.
The vehicle could move suddenly or some other unexpected event could occur, resulting in
property damage, fire, or personal injury.
Never use starting assist fluids. Starting fluids can explode and can cause a “run-away”
vehicle condition.
WARNING
The vehicle exhaust system and the catalytic converter or diesel particulate filter get very hot.
They can cause fires and serious personal injury.
Never park the vehicle where the hot exhaust system or catalytic converter could ignite
flammable materials, such as brush, leaves, dry grass, spilled fuel, etc.
Never apply additional undercoating or rust proofing on or near the exhaust manifold,
exhaust pipes, catalytic converter, diesel particulate filter, or heat shields.

Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot help themselves in the
vehicle. The doors can be locked with the remote control vehicle key. This could result in
people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. For example, depending on the time of
year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
Heat buildup in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle can result in
temperatures in the vehicle that are much higher than the outside temperatures, particularly
in summer. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause unconsciousness and
death, particularly to small children.
Never remove the key from the ignition switch while the vehicle is moving or rolling to a
stop. The steering wheel will lock and you will not be able to steer or control the vehicle.
Leaving the key in the ignition for a long time when the engine is not running will drain the vehicle

WARNING
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running, especially when it is in gear. The
vehicle could move suddenly or some other unexpected event could occur, resulting in prop-
erty damage, fire, or personal injury.
WARNING
“Starting fluids” can explode and can cause a “run-away” vehicle condition.
Never use starting assist fluids.
NOTICE
You can damage the starter or the engine if you try to start the engine when the vehicle is
still moving, or if you try to restart the engine right after switching it off.
Avoid high engine speeds, full throttle acceleration, and heavy engine loads when the en-
gine is cold.
Do not try to start the engine by pushing or towing the vehicle. Unburned fuel can get into
the catalytic converter and damage it. The steering column may also be locked.
Do not let your vehicle warm up while standing; instead, start driving right away after making sure
that you have good visibility through all windows. This will help the engine reach operating tempera-
ture faster and keep down emissions.
Major consumers of electricity are temporarily switched off when the engine is being started.
After starting a cold engine, there may be increased operating noises for a few seconds. This is
normal and harmless.
When outside temperatures are below +41 °F (+5 °C) and the diesel fueled preheater is activat-
ed, minor fume buildup may occur underneath the vehicle.

vates the steering column lock.
WARNING
Never stop the engine before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. You can lose control
of the vehicle, crash, and be seriously injured.
The airbags and safety belt pretensioners will not work when the ignition is switched off.
The brake booster does not work when the engine is not running. More brake pedal pres-
sure will be needed to stop the vehicle.
The power steering system does not work when the engine is not running, and you will
need more force to steer the vehicle.
Never remove the key from the ignition switch or turn off the ignition with the starter but-
ton while the vehicle is moving or rolling to a stop. The electronic steering column could
suddenly lock, and you would not be able to steer the vehicle.
NOTICE
If the vehicle has been driven hard for a long time, the engine could overheat when it is
stopped. To reduce the risk of engine damage, let the engine idle in Neutral for about 2 minutes
before you switch off the ignition.
If the ignition is switched on or the engine is running and the driver door is opened, a chime
sounds. The chime is also a reminder to switch off the engine and turn off the ignition before leaving
and locking the vehicle from the outside.
On vehicles with automatic transmissions, the vehicle key can only be removed from the ignition
when the transmission is in Park (P).
After the engine has been switched off, the radiator fan in the engine compartment may keep
running for several minutes, or may start running after the vehicle has been parked for a while, even if
the ignition is switched off and the vehicle key has been removed. The radiator fan shuts off automati-
cally when the engine has cooled down enough.
Electronic immobilizer
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
The immobilizer helps to prevent the engine from being started and driven with an unauthorized vehi-
cle key.
There is a microchip inside the vehicle key. The chip deactivates the immobilizer automatically when
an authorized vehicle key is inserted into the ignition switch or the starter button is pressed.
The electronic immobilizer is automatically activated when the remote control vehicle key is pulled out
of the ignition switch. On vehicles with push-button start, the vehicle key must be outside the vehicle
⇒ Unlocking or locking the vehicle with Keyless Access.
The engine can therefore only be started with an authorized and correctly coded genuine Volkswagen
vehicle key. Coded vehicle keys are available from authorized Volkswagen dealers, authorized
Volkswagen Service Facilities, and from certain independent repair facilities and locksmiths who are
qualified to make these vehicle keys
⇒ Vehicle key set.
If an unauthorized vehicle key is used, a message may appear in the instrument cluster display. The
vehicle cannot be operated with this key.
A Declaration of Compliance with the United States FCC and Industry Canada regulations is on
