rear turn signal VOLKSWAGEN CC 2010 Owners Manual

WARNING
Daytime running lights are not bright enough to let you see
ahead or be seen by others when it is dark.
Always switch on the low-beam headlights at dusk or when it
is dark and whenever the weather is bad or visibility is poor.
Never use the daytime running lights to see where you are
going. They are not bright enough and will not let you see far
enough ahead for safety, especially at dusk or when it is dark.
Always switch on the low-beam headlights at dusk or when it is
dark.
The taillights do not come on with the daytime running lights.
Unless the taillights are on, a vehicle cannot be seen by others
in bad weather, at dusk, or when it is dark.
Even if automatic headlight control (!54/) is switched on, the
low-beam headlights may still not come on by themselves in
fog or heavy rain. You have to switch on the low-beam head-
lights manually.
In cool or humid weather, the insides of the headlights, the rear
lights, and turn signals can temporarily fog up. This is normal and
does not affect the service life of the vehicle's lighting system.
Lights and vision features

WARNING
Crashes and other accidents can happen when you cannot see
the road ahead and when you cannot be seen by other motor-
ists.
Never use daytime running lights (DRL) to see where you are
going. DRL are not bright enough to light up the roadway and
be seen by other motorists. You will not be able to see far
enough ahead for safety, especially at dusk or when it is dark.
Always switch on the low-beam headlights at dusk or when it is
dark.
The taillights do not come on when the daytime running
lights are switched on. A vehicle without taillights on cannot be
seen by others in bad weather, at dusk, or when it is dark.
If automatic headlight control (!54/) is switched on, the low-
beam headlights still may not be switched on in fog or heavy
rain. You have to switch on the low-beam headlights yourself.
In cool or humid weather, the insides of the headlights, the rear
lights, and turn signals can temporarily fog up. This is normal and
does not affect the service life of the vehicle's lighting system.

Trailer taillights
Trailer lights must meet all regulations ⇒ Hitching up and connecting
a trailer.
Never connect the trailer lights directly to the electrical system of your
vehicle.
Outside mirrors
If you cannot see the traffic behind you using the regular outside mir-
rors, then you must install extended mirrors. Extended mirrors may
also be required by law in some countries/states/provinces. Always
adjust the outside mirrors before driving. It's vital that you always
have a clear view to the rear of the vehicle.

Do not exceed the power ratings listed in the chart below.

Electrical load Maximum power
Brake lights total 108 watts
Turn signals per side 54 watts

WARNING
An improperly installed or incorrect trailer hitch can cause a
trailer to separate from the tow vehicle and cause serious per-
sonal injuries.
If you don't have to tow a trailer any more, remove the entire
trailer hitch. Always seal all bolt holes to prevent water and
deadly exhaust fumes from getting into the vehicle.
NOTICE
If the trailer lights are not connected properly, the vehicle's
electronics may be damaged.
