WARNING
Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text messages can cause the vehicle to
break down in traffic and result in a collision and serious personal injury.
Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.
Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Park the vehicle at a safe distance from moving traffic and where no part of the hot cata-
lytic converter and exhaust system can come into contact with flammable materials under the
vehicle, such as dry grass, brush, spilled fuel, etc.
A broken down vehicle presents a high accident risk for itself and others. Switch on
emergency flashers and set up a warning triangle to warn oncoming traffic.
WARNING
Roads and bridges may be dangerously icy even if the outside air temperature is above freez-
ing.
If you use the outside temperature display to tell you about frost conditions, remember
that roads can even ice over at temperatures above +39 °F (+4 °C). Always remember: even if
the “snowflake symbol” (ice warning) is not displayed, there could still be black ice on the
road.
Never rely exclusively on the outside temperature display.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in vehicle damage.
The instrument cluster displays and their arrangement may vary depending on the vehicle model
and engine. For displays without warning and information messages, malfunctions are only signaled
with indicator lights.
If there are multiple warning messages, the symbols are displayed for several seconds in order
of importance. The symbols are displayed until the cause has been corrected.

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
seriously 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
intervals 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
headlights?
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?

Page: 43

Are engine oil (⇒Engine oil) and other operating fluids that meet Volkswagen quality and
performance 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 ⇒ , see dimensions
Do not drive faster than walking speed.
Never stop the vehicle, and do not drive in Reverse (R) 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
stopping 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
compartment.
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.

Remote control vehicle keys
Fig. 22 Remote control vehicle key with panic button.
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
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
authorized Volkswagen Service Facility, or another qualified workshop. See also ⇒ Synchronizing the
remote control vehicle key.
Folding the key bit in or out
Pressing button ⇒fig. 22 (1) releases the key bit and folds it out.
To fold the key bit in press button (1) while pressing the key bit back until it clicks.
Panic button
Press the panic button (2) only in emergencies! After pushing the panic button, the horn will sound and
the turn signals will flash. Press the panic button again to switch off the panic feature.
Replacement vehicle keys
The vehicle identification number is required to get a replacement key or an additional remote control
vehicle key.
Depending on the model, up to 8 vehicle keys, each of which must be properly cut, coded,
programmed, and synchronized, can be used with your vehicle.
Each new vehicle key contains a microchip and must be coded with the data from the vehicle’s
electronic 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
dealers, authorized Volkswagen Service Facilities, and from certain independent repair facilities and
locksmiths 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.

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
transmitters 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 ⇒fig. 22 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.
