air condition VOLKSWAGEN CC 2015 Owner´s Manual

Air conditioner does not work
The air conditioner may not switch on for one of the following rea-
sons:
The engine is not running.
The fan is switched off.
The air conditioner fuse has blown.
The outside air temperature is colder than about +38 °F (+3 °C).
The air conditioner compressor has been temporarily switched off
due to excessive engine coolant temperature.
There is another malfunction in the vehicle. Have the air condition-
er checked by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility.
Special considerations
When it is very hot and humid outside, water condensation can drip
from the air conditioner evaporator and form a puddle under the vehi-
cle. This is normal and does not indicate a leak.
The climate control system adjusts the passenger compartment
temperature as fast as possible considering the outside temperature.
Due to residual moisture in the air conditioner, the windshield
may fog up after the engine is started. Switch on the windshield de-
froster to help evaporate the condensation as quickly as possible.
The air coming out of the vents flows through the passenger
compartment and through the vents under the rear window. Do not
cover these slots with clothing or other things.

Air recirculation is not automatically activated under the following
outside temperatures and conditions:
The air conditioning is on (indicated by the light in the !

NOTICE
Do not smoke when air recirculation is switched on. Smoke
drawn into the ventilation system can leave residue on the evap-
orator and on the dust and pollen active carbon filter, resulting
in permanent odors whenever the air conditioner is switched on.
When backing up and while the automatic wiper/washer is oper-
ating, air recirculation is briefly activated to help keep exhaust fumes
from getting into the passenger compartment.

After each cleaning, apply cream that waterproofs the leather and
protects it against the sun. Such creams also nourish the leather, let it
breathe, keep it flexible and moisturized. At the same time it protects
the surface.
Clean leather every 2 to 3 months and remove any new stains.
Treat leather with a suitable leather-care product twice a year ⇒ .
Apply cleaning and conditioning materials sparingly and always
with a dry, lint-free cotton or wool cloth. Do not apply cleaning and
conditioning materials directly to the leather.
Remove fresh stains such as ballpoint pen, lipstick, ink, shoe
polish, etc. as soon as possible.
Preserve the leather's color. If necessary, refresh fading spots with
a specially-colored leather cream.
Wipe the leather with a soft cloth.
Cleaning
Volkswagen recommends using a slightly moistened cotton or wool
cloth for general cleaning.
It is important not to let water soak through the leather or penetrate
into seams.
Before cleaning leather surfaces, read and heed the information ⇒ ,
Cleaning upholstery on heated seats and power seats or seats with
airbag components.

WARNING
Damage to safety belts reduces their overall effectiveness and
increases the risk of serious personal injury and death when-
ever the vehicle is being used.
Check the condition of all safety belts regularly. If you notice
that the safety belt webbing, hardware, retractor, buckle, or any
other part of the safety belts is damaged, immediately have an
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Ser-
vice Facility replace the safety belt with the correct replacement
belt for your vehicle model and model year.
Never use chemical cleaning agents, solvents, or any sub-
stance that may damage or weaken the safety belt webbing or
any other parts of the safety belt. Never let the belts come into
contact with corrosive fluids or sharp objects. Otherwise, the
safety belt webbing will be significantly weakened.
After cleaning, always give the safety belts time to dry com-
pletely before letting them retract. The moisture can damage
the retractor and keep it from working properly.
Never let foreign objects or liquids get into the safety belt
latch. This could prevent the belt buckles and safety belts from
working properly.
Damaged safety belts must be replaced; they cannot be re-
paired.
Never try to repair a damaged safety belt yourself. Never re-
move or modify the safety belts in any way.
Safety belts that were subject to stress in an accident and
stretched must be replaced with a correct, new safety belt,
preferably by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility.
Replacement after a crash may be necessary even if a safety
belt shows no visible damage. Anchorages that have been
loaded must also be inspected.
