about how the apps collect, use and share information about you,
your vehicle or your mobile device.
The application software provided may be designed to be used for a
variety of purposes and be specific to your vehicle and country ⇒ .
The content, range of software provided and application software
provider can vary. Some application software is also subject to the
availability of services provided by third parties. In order for some
application software to work, wireless service reception must be
strong enough to handle the data exchange involved (text and data
rates apply).
Application software descriptions may be provided by the service pro-
vider.
Due to the multitude of mobile devices and fast pace of software de-
velopment, the application software provided may not run on all mo-
bile devices and their operating systems. This may even apply for the
same model of a mobile device. For example, application software
may run on version 2 of the device's operating system but not on ver-
sion 3.

connection between the factory-installed Radio or Navigation system
and a compatible, functioning mobile device must be strong enough
and uninterrupted.
NOTICE
Volkswagen is not responsible for vehicle damage caused by
inferior-quality or malicious application software, poorly pro-
grammed application software, insufficient wireless service re-
ception, data loss during transmission or misuse of mobile de-
vices.

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.
Never let safety belts become damaged by being caught in
the door or seat hardware.
Torn or frayed safety belts can tear, and damaged safety belt
hardware can break in an accident.
Inspect belts regularly for damage. If webbing, bindings,
buckles, or retractors are damaged, have the belts replaced
immediately with the correct replacement belts approved by
Volkswagen for your vehicle, model, and model year.
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.
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.
Have safety belts, bindings, retractors and buckles replaced
by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen
Service Facility.
Always keep the belts clean. Dirty belts may not work cor-
rectly and can impair the function of the inertia reel.

Never mount used tires on your vehicle if you are not sure of
their past use. Old, used tires and wheels may have damage
that cannot be seen that can lead to sudden tire failure and loss
of vehicle control.
Tires age even if they are not being used and can fail sudden-
ly, especially at high speeds, causing loss of vehicle control,
accidents, and severe personal injuries. Tires that are more
than 6 years old can be used only in an emergency and even
then only with special care and at low speed.
For technical reasons it is usually not possible to use wheel rims
from other vehicles. Even wheel rims from the same model may not fit
properly. Check with an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility if necessary.
Tire and wheel handling

Fig. 110 Tire rotation diagram.

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-

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System is configured at the factory
with the correct tire inflation pressure applicable for the vehicle
model, engine and factory-installed tires. The tire inflation pressure
is listed on the tire inflation pressure label on the driver door jamb⇒ ,
Tire inflation pressure. The tire inflation pressures for the road tires
are listed on this label. The inflation pressure for the compact spare
is as specified on the tire pressure label or on a separate label for
the compact spare, if there is one. In the event of a discrepancy be-
tween the above figures and the tire pressures listed on the tire infla-
tion pressure label, the pressures listed on the label are the ones
you should use. The listed pressure applies to all road tires. If differ-
ent tires are installed that do not have the same cold tire inflation
pressure as the tires originally installed on your vehicle, the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System cannot properly monitor tire inflation
pressures unless the TPMS is reset to the new tire pressures
⇒ page 295. Authorized Volkswagen dealers and authorized
Volkswagen Service Facilities have the necessary special tools and
can reset the TPMS for the new tires on your vehicle.

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
Poor visibility increases the risk of collisions and other acci-
dents that cause serious personal injuries.
Always make sure all windows are clear of ice, snow and
condensation for good visibility to the front, sides, and rear.
Maximum heating output and defrosting performance are not
possible until the engine has reached operating temperature.
Wait until you have good visibility before driving off.
Always make sure you know how to properly use the climate
control system as well as the rear window defroster that you
will need for good visibility.
Never use air recirculation for long periods of time. When the
air conditioner is off and recirculation mode is on, condensa-
tion can quickly form on the windows and greatly reduce visi-
bility.
Always switch off recirculation mode when it is not needed.
WARNING
Stale air causes driver fatigue and reduces driver alertness,
which can cause accidents, collisions and serious personal in-
jury.
Never switch off the fan for a long period of time and never
use air recirculation for a long period of time because no fresh
air will enter the passenger compartment.
NOTICE
If you think the air conditioner is not working properly or may
be damaged, switch it off to help prevent more damage. Have the
air conditioner checked by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or
an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Air conditioner repair requires specialized knowledge and
special tools. Volkswagen recommends that you see an author-
ized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility.
Do not smoke when air recirculation is switched on. Smoke
drawn into the ventilation system can leave residue on the evap-

Changing wiper blades
Lift the wiper arm(s) away from the windshield.
Press and hold the release button ⇒ fig. 172 (1).
While lifting the wiper blade in the direction of the wiper arm, pull
off the wiper blade in the direction of the arrow. This may require
moderate force.
Install a new wiper blade of same length and type onto the wiper
arm by pushing in the opposite direction of the arrow until it latches.
Carefully fold the wiper arm back down onto the windshield.
WARNING
Worn or dirty wiper blades reduce visibility and increase the
risk of accidents and severe injuries.
Always change wiper blades if they are damaged or worn,
and if they cannot clean the windows sufficiently.
NOTICE
Damaged or dirty wiper blades can scratch the windshield.
Solvents, abrasive sponges and sharp-edged objects will
damage the graphite coating on the wiper blades.
Do not clean the windows with gasoline, nail polish remover,
paint thinner or similar fluids.
To help prevent damage to the engine hood and the wind-
shield wiper arms, lift the wiper arms away from the windshield
only when they are in the service position.
Waxing and polishing vehicle paint

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.
