WARNING
Vehicle health reports do not replace the information provided
by the vehicle warning and indicator lights. 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 catalytic converter and exhaust system
can come into contact with flammable materials under the vehi-
cle, 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.
Before opening the engine hood, always switch off the en-
gine and let the engine cool down.
Always be very careful when working in the engine compart-
ment, which is a potentially dangerous area in any motor vehi-
cle and can cause serious personal injury.

WARNING
Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text mes-
sages 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.
Whenever stalled or stopped for repair, move the vehicle a
safe distance off the road, stop the engine, turn on the emer-
gency flashers, and use other warning devices to warn ap-
proaching traffic.
Never park the vehicle in areas where the hot catalytic con-
verter and exhaust system can come into contact with dry
grass, brush, spilled fuel, oil, or other material that can catch
fire.
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.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in
vehicle damage.
High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights provide bright, uniform
lighting to help you see and be seen. The light comes from an electric
arc between two electrodes in the gas-filled bulb. Over time, the elec-
trodes can wear down and the gap between them will get wider. The
HID lamp’s control unit then increases the voltage to keep the arc’s
brightness constant. However, the commonly called “Xenon” bulbs
will also ultimately burn out. Before they burn out, HID lamps can
flicker. A message will then appear in the MFI. This is your reminder
to see an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized
Volkswagen Service facility to check the headlights.

Install only radial tires only of the same make, the same dimen-
sions (tread circumference), and similar tread profile on all 4 wheels.
The tread depth of new tires can differ between tire models and
manufacturers because of different design features and tread design.
Replacing tires
Tires should be replaced in pairs and not individually (both front
tires or both rear tires at the same time) ⇒ .
Replace tires only with tires that have the same specifications, in-
cluding width and diameter, load and top speed rating as the tires
approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model.
Never use tires that are larger or wider than the dimensions of the
tires approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model. Larger
tires could scrape and rub on the vehicle body or other parts of the
vehicle.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) considerations
Factory-installed wheels are equipped with a sensor that constantly
monitors tire pressure, then transmits this information to the TPMS ⇒ 
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). If you are going to replace
the wheels, make sure that the new wheels also have sensors that
are compatible with the TPMS on your vehicle. New wheels with sen-
sors have to be recognized and integrated into the system. The new
wheels and sensors are recognized and integrated when driving off
the first time.
If you install wheels that do not have sensors, or have sensors that
are not compatible, the TPMS will not work properly. In this case, the
TPMS will not be able to monitor tire pressure or warn you if pressure
is low. An error message may appear in the instrument cluster display
or the TPMS will switch itself off.
Whenever you change sensors, you have to install new valves and
seals. Please see an authorized Volkswagen dealer of an authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility.
Always drive with the valve caps securely installed. We recom-
mend using factory-supplied valve caps. Ask an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility to
replace lost caps.
If you install new tires that differ the original Volkswagen specifica-
tions, for your vehicle and model, the benchmark tire inflation pres-

ter tire performance decreases with age – independent of the tread
profile depth.
When using winter tires:
Obey state and country-specific legal requirements.
Install winter tires on all 4 wheels.
Use winter tires only under wintry road conditions.
Only use winter tires with dimensions approved for the vehicle.
Use only winter tires of the same tire belt design, the same dimen-
sions (tread circumference), and the same tread design.
Follow speed restrictions according to the winter tire's speed rating
code letter ⇒ .
Speed restrictions
Winter tires are certified up to a top speed identified by speed rating
code letters on the side wall ⇒  Tire labeling.
In some vehicle models it is possible to set a speed warning in the
menu in the instrument cluster display ⇒  Volkswagen Information
System.
Top speed rating and tire inflation pressure for V winter tires depend
on the engine installed in your vehicle. Be sure to ask you authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility about
the maximum permissible speed and the required tire inflation pres-
sure for the winter tires that you plan to use.
WARNING
Driving faster than the maximum speed for which the winter
tires on your vehicle were designed can cause sudden tire fail-
ure including a blowout and sudden deflation, loss of control,
crashes and serious personal injuries.
Winter tires have a maximum speed rating that may be lower
than your vehicle's maximum speed.
Never drive faster than the maximum speed for which the
winter tires installed on your vehicle are rated because tires
that are driven faster than their rated speed can fail suddenly.
Never exceed the maximum load rating for the winter tires
installed on your vehicle.

WARNING
Incorrect tire pressures and/or underinflation can cause sudden
tire failure, loss of control, collision, serious personal injury or
even death.
When the warning symbol appears in the instrument cluster,
stop and inspect the tires.
Incorrect tire pressure and/or underinflation can cause in-
creased tire wear and can affect the handling of the vehicle and
stopping ability.
Incorrect tire pressures and/or underinflation can also lead to
sudden tire failure, including a blowout and sudden deflation,
causing loss of vehicle control.
The driver is responsible for the correct tire pressures for all
tires on the vehicle. The recommended tire pressure values are
listed on a sticker inside the driver door ⇒  Tire inflation pres-
sure.
The TPMS can only work correctly when all tires on the vehi-
cle are filled to the correct cold tire inflation pressure specified
for the tires installed on the vehicle.
Using incorrect tire pressure values can cause accidents or
other damage. Always inflate the tires to the correct specified
cold tire pressure values for the tires installed on the vehicle.
Always maintain correct cold tire inflation pressure so that
TPMS can do its job.
Always inflate tires to the recommended and correct tire
pressure before driving off.
Driving with underinflated tires causes them to flex (bend)
more, letting them get too hot, resulting in tread separation,
sudden tire failure, and loss of control.
Excessive speed and/overloading can cause heat build-up,
sudden tire failure, and loss of control.
If the tire pressure is too low or too high, the tires will wear
prematurely and the vehicle will not handle well.
If the tire is not “flat” and you do not have to change a wheel
immediately, drive carefully and at reduced speed to the near-
est service station to check the tire pressure and add air as re-
quired.

If the tire is not “flat” and you do not have to change the tire
or wheel immediately, drive at reduced speed to the nearest
service station to check the tire pressure and add air as re-
quired.
When replacing tires or wheel rims on vehicles equipped with
TPMS, always read and heed the information and all WARN-
INGS in the section ⇒  Tires and wheels.
