WARNING

Driving under the influence of alcohol, illegal drugs, narcotics and some medications may
cause collisions and other accidents, severe personal injuries and even death.

Alcohol, illegal drugs, narcotics and some medications may severely affect perception,

reaction times and safe driving, which may result in the loss of vehicle control.

Getting ready and driving safely

Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

Checklist

Observe the following points before and during every drive for your own safety, the safety of all pas-

sengers and others

⇒ :

Check proper function of lights and turn signals.

Check tire pressure (

⇒ Tires and wheels) and fuel level (⇒ Refueling).

Make sure that all windows are clean.

Make sure that the engine is not covered by blankets or other materials and that the engine air

intake is free of obstacles.

Store items and all luggage safely in the storage compartments, in the luggage compartment and,

where applicable, on the roof

⇒ Transporting.

Always make sure that nothing keeps the pedals from moving freely.

Make sure that children are properly secured by a restraint system appropriate for their size and

weight

⇒ Child safety and child restraints.

Properly adjust front seats, all head restraints and mirrors to the correct height

⇒ Adjusting the

seating position.

Wear shoes that give your feet a good grip and that give you a feel for the pedals.

Make sure that the floormat on the driver side is properly fastened and cannot interfere with the

pedals.

Assume a proper seating position before the vehicle starts to move and keep this position while

driving. Make sure that all passengers do the same

⇒ Adjusting the seating position.

Properly fasten your safety belt before driving the vehicle and wear your safety belt properly at all

times while driving. Make sure that all passengers do the same

⇒ Safety belts.

Only transport as many passengers as there are seats and safety belts available.

Never drive if your driving ability has been impaired, for example, by medication, alcohol, or illegal

drugs.

Never let passengers or phone calls distract you while driving and never take your attention off the

road while using vehicle software or adjusting vehicle equipment or accessories.

Always adapt your speed and driving style to visibility, weather, road, and traffic conditions.

Always obey traffic laws and speed limits.

On long trips make frequent rest stops – at least once every 2 hours.

Secure animals in the vehicle with a system that corresponds to their weight and size.

WARNING

Always observe traffic rules and posted speed limits and use common sense. Your good
judgment can mean the difference between arriving safely at your destination and being seri-
ously injured in a crash or other kind of accident.

Regular service and maintenance of your vehicle is important both for operational and driving

safety and to help prolong your vehicle's service life. Always follow the scheduled maintenance inter-

vals in the

⇒ Booklet

Warranty and Maintenance, especially for changing the brake fluid. Hard use,

frequent stop-and-go driving, driving in very dusty areas, trailer towing, and other factors may make it
necessary to have the vehicle serviced more frequently. Ask an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an
authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for more information.

Driving in other countries

Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

Checklist

Some countries have special safety standards and emissions requirements that your vehicle may not
meet. Before taking your vehicle to another country, Volkswagen therefore recommends that you ask
your authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility about the following
issues with regard to the country to which you would like to travel:

Should the vehicle be technically prepared for the trip abroad, such as masking or adjusting head-

lights?

Are maintenance, repair facilities, necessary tools and testing equipment as well as spare parts

readily available for your vehicle?

Are there authorized Volkswagen dealers and authorized Volkswagen Service Facilities in the

countries where you will be driving?

For gasoline engines: Is unleaded fuel with the right octane rating readily available?

For diesel engines: Is ultra low-sulfur diesel fuel

⇒ Fuel readily available?

Are engine oil (

⇒ Engine oil) and other operating fluids that meet Volkswagen quality and perfor-

mance requirements available where you will be driving? For more information, please see
⇒ Booklet

Warranty and Maintenance.

Does the factory-installed navigation system work in the countries where you will be driving, and is

navigation data available?

Are special or heavy-duty tires necessary for the kind of driving expected?

NOTICE

Volkswagen is not responsible for mechanical damage that may result from substandard fuel
or service or the unavailability of Genuine Volkswagen parts.

Driving through water on roads

Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

Note the following to help prevent vehicle damage when driving through water, for example on flooded
roads:

Check the depth of the water before driving through it. The water must not be any higher than

the bottom of the vehicle body

⇒ .

Do not drive faster than walking speed.
Never stop the vehicle, and do not drive in reverse or switch the engine off when driving through

water.

Oncoming vehicles may create waves that raise the water level and make it too deep for your

vehicle to drive through safely.

WARNING

After driving through water, mud, sludge, etc., the brakes react slower and need longer stop-
ping distances.

Always dry the brakes and clean off any ice coatings with a few careful applications of the

brake. Make sure not to endanger other motorists or cyclists or disobey legal requirements.

Avoid abrupt or sudden braking maneuvers immediately after driving through water.

NOTICE

Vehicle components such as the engine, transmission, suspension or electrical system may

be severely damaged by driving through water.

Never drive through salt water. Salt causes vehicle corrosion. Thoroughly rinse with fresh

water all vehicle parts that were exposed to salt water.

DANGER

20 mm button cells and other lithium batteries will cause serious personal injury and even
death within a short time if swallowed.

Always keep remote control vehicle key fobs with batteries, spare batteries, as well as

dead button cell and larger 20 mm batteries out of the reach of children.

Get medical attention immediately if you suspect that a battery has been swallowed.

WARNING

Improper use of vehicle keys can result in serious personal injury.

Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle. It can be used to start the engine

and operate vehicle systems such as the power windows, leading to serious personal injury.
Children or other unauthorized persons could also lock the doors and the luggage compart-
ment.

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 leave people
trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. Depending on the time of year, people trapped in the
vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.

A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depending on the season. Particularly

in the summer, 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.
Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particu-
larly to small children.

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, you would not be able to steer, and you could lose control of the vehicle,
crash, and seriously injure yourself and others.

Remote control vehicle keys

Remote control vehicle key

The remote control vehicle key can unlock and lock the vehicle from a distance

⇒ Power locking

system.

The remote transmitter and battery are inside the remote control vehicle key. The receiver is inside the
passenger compartment. The operating range of the remote control vehicle key for a fresh battery is
several yards (meters) around the vehicle.

If the remote control vehicle key will not lock or unlock your vehicle, you probably need to replace the

battery in the remote control vehicle key

⇒ Replacing the remote control vehicle key battery. If this is

not the problem, the key should be resynchronized by an authorized Volkswagen dealer, an author-

ized Volkswagen Service Facility, or another qualified workshop. See also

Replacement vehicle keys

The vehicle identification number is required to get a replacement key or an additional remote control
vehicle key.

Each new vehicle key contains a microchip and must be coded with the data from the vehicle's elec-
tronic immobilizer. A vehicle key will not work if it does not contain a microchip or contains a chip that
is not coded, even if the key bit was cut correctly.

You can obtain additional or duplicate remote control vehicle keys from authorized Volkswagen deal-
ers, authorized Volkswagen Service Facilities, and from certain independent repair facilities and lock-
smiths which are qualified to make remote control vehicle keys.

Each vehicle key must be programmed by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility in order for it to work with your vehicle.

To find the nearest qualified independent repair facility, locksmith, or Volkswagen dealer which can cut
and code replacement vehicle keys, call the VW Customer Care Hotline at 1-800-822-8987 or visit
http://www.vw.com and search for “replacement keys.”

Canadian customers can contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or Volkswagen Service Facility or
call the Volkswagen Canada Customer CARE Center at 1-800-822-8987.

NOTICE

The remote control vehicle keys contain electrical components. Protect them from damage,
moisture and rough handling.

Do not press the buttons on the remote control vehicle key unless you actually want to use the

function in question. Since terrain and conditions vary, pressing a button on the remote control vehicle
key when it is not necessary may unlock the vehicle or set off the panic alarm, even if you think you
are out of range.

Remote control vehicle key functions can be temporarily disrupted by interference from transmit-

ters near the vehicle that use the same frequency range (such as radio equipment or mobile phones).

Things between the remote control vehicle key and vehicle, bad weather, as well as a weak

battery can reduce the operating range.

If the remote control vehicle key buttons

⇒ Unlocking or locking the vehicle from the outside or

the power locking buttons

⇒ Unlocking or locking the vehicle from the inside are pushed repeatedly in

quick succession, the power locking system is switched off for a brief period to help keep it from being
overloaded. The vehicle is then unlocked for about 30 seconds. Unless a door or the rear hatch is
opened in this span of time, the vehicle is automatically locked afterwards.
