WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fuel is dangerous and can
cause fire, explosion, and severe burns.
Always make sure that the fuel filler cap is screwed on all the
way. This helps keep fuel from spilling out or evaporating.
Fuel is highly flammable and explosive; it can cause severe
burns and other severe injuries.
Failure to shut the engine off while refueling and/or to insert
the pump nozzle all the way into the fuel filler neck can cause
fuel to overflow and to spray out. Fuel spray and overflowing
fuel are dangerous because they can cause fire and serious
personal injury.
During refueling, the engine and the ignition must be
switched off for safety reasons.
Never use a mobile telephone, CB radio, or other radio
equipment while refueling. The electromagnetic radiation can
cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and cause a fire.
Never get back into your vehicle while refueling. If in excep-
tional circumstances you must get back in your vehicle while
refueling, make certain that you close the door and touch metal
to discharge static electricity before touching the filler nozzle
again. This helps avoid the buildup of static electricity, which
can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors released during
refueling.
Never smoke or have an open flame (or sparks, cigarettes, or
other smoldering objects) anywhere in or near your vehicle
when refueling or filling a portable fuel container.
Follow all safety instructions and procedures that apply at
the service station where you refuel.
Never spill fuel in the vehicle or the luggage compartment.

WARNING
Items stored between the safety belt buckle and the center con-
sole can cause safety belt buckle to send the wrong infor-
mation to the airbag control unit and prevent the Advanced Air-
bag System from working properly.
Always make sure that nothing can interfere with the safety
belt buckles and that they are not obstructed.
WARNING
Improper care and servicing, and improper modification and
repair work, can increase the risk of personal injury and death
by preventing an airbag from deploying when needed or de-
ploying an airbag unexpectedly:
Never repair, adjust, or change any parts of the airbag sys-
tem.
All work on the airbag system, steering wheel, instrument
panel, front seats or electrical system (including the installation
of audio equipment, mobile telephones and CB radios, etc.)
should be performed by authorized Volkswagen dealers or au-
thorized Volkswagen Service Facilities. They have the neces-
sary manuals, training, and special equipment.
The airbag system can be activated only once. After an air-
bag has inflated, it must be replaced.
Use only original equipment airbags approved by
Volkswagen. Have them installed by a trained technician who
has the necessary tools and diagnostic equipment to properly
replace any airbag in your vehicle and assure system effective-
ness in a crash.
Never permit salvaged or recycled airbags to be installed in
your vehicle.
Undeployed airbag modules and safety belt pretensioners are
classified as Perchlorate Material. Special handling may apply – see
http://www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate. Obey all appli-
cable legal requirements regarding handling and disposal of the vehi-
cle or parts of its restraint system, including airbag modules and safe-
ty belts with pretensioners. Authorized Volkswagen dealers and au-

Some state laws restrict the retrieval or downloading of data stored by
EDRs installed in a vehicle for the express purpose of retrieving data
after an accident or crash event without the owner's consent.
Volkswagen will not access the EDR and/or similar data or give it to
others - unless the vehicle owner (or lessee if the vehicle has been
leased) agrees, or;
upon the official request by the police;
upon the order of a court of law or a government agency; or
for the defense of a lawsuit through the judicial discovery process.
Volkswagen may also use the data for research about vehicle opera-
tion and safety performance or provide the data to a third party for
research purposes without identifying the specific vehicle or infor-
mation about the identity of its owner or lessee.
NOTE: Your vehicle may be equipped with Volkswagen Car-Net.
Please see the Volkswagen Car-Net Terms of Service and Privacy
Policy at (http:// www.vw.com/carnet) for details regarding how
Volkswagen collects, processes, transmits, uses and shares infor-
mation obtained through the Volkswagen Car-Net equipment and
service.
Your vehicle is also equipped with a number of electronic control
modules for various vehicle systems, such as engine management,
emission control, airbags, and safety belts.
These electronic control modules record data during normal vehicle
operation that may be needed by trained technicians for diagnostic
and repair purposes. The recording capability of these modules is
limited to data (no sound is recorded). Only a small amount of data is
actually recorded over a very limited period of time, or stored when a
system fault is detected by a control module. Some of the data stored
may relate to vehicle speed, direction, or braking, as well as restraint
system use and performance in the event of a crash. Stored data can
also only be read and downloaded with special equipment that is di-
rectly connected to the vehicle.
Using a mobile phone without a vehicle-integrated antenna -
some important things to know

Page 487 of 578


Mobile or cellular telephones send and receive radio waves, some-
times called “radiofrequency energy” (RF energy), both when they are
being used and when they are in standby mode. Current scientific
literature indicates that radio waves that exceed a certain level can
have effects on the human body. Limits and guidelines have been
established by governmental authorities and international committees
in an effort to keep the electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones
at levels that will not cause health problems. However, there is no
scientifically based proof that wireless phones are absolutely safe.
Therefore, some experts recommend a precautionary approach re-
garding the use of mobile phones by taking measures that lower the
personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. When using a mobile
telephone inside a motor vehicle without a proper connection to an
integrated vehicle telephone antenna, the personal exposure to elec-
tromagnetic fields will be higher than when using the mobile tele-
phone while properly connected to an integrated or other outside ve-
hicle telephone antenna.
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional hands-free system
that will permit many of the features of compatible Bluetooth® enabled
mobile telephones to be used for greater convenience and is con-
sistent with the laws of an increasing number of states and localities
that prohibit the use of mobile telephones without some kind of
hands-free device.
The hands-free system in your vehicle can be used with certain mo-
bile phones that are connected by wire and hardware connector or via
compatible Bluetooth® enabled phones with a cradle that is designed
to fit your mobile telephone.The special cradle offers several ad-
vantages: The phone cradle must be safely secured to the base plate.
Your phone is firmly attached to the instrument panel and is within
reach at all times. Placing the phone in its cradle permits it to be
charged, but more importantly connects the mobile phone to the vehi-
cle's outside antenna. A mobile telephone that is properly connected
to the integrated or other outside vehicle telephone antenna will lower
the personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. You should also ex-
perience a better quality of service. Although a mobile telephone can
be used inside your vehicle without a cradle, the phone will not be
securely attached to the vehicle, will not be charged through the cra-
dle wiring, and more importantly will not be connected to the vehicle's
integrated telephone antenna. The mobile phone will also not be re-

Page 488 of 578


charged. You might also experience more dropped calls and an over-
all impaired quality of the connection.
Therefore we strongly recommend that you use your mobile tele-
phone in your vehicle only when it is properly attached to an appro-
priate cradle mounted on a base plate on the instrument panel.
Because of the large number and variety of mobile telephones on the
market and the frequency with which new models are introduced,
Volkswagen does not offer cradles for mobile telephones. Please
check with the manufacturer of the mobile telephone that you plan to
use.

WARNING
A mobile phone on the seat, instrument panel or in other places
can be thrown around the inside of the vehicle during a sudden
braking maneuver, a crash or other accident and injure vehicle
occupants.
Never place or attach accessories or other objects (such as
cup holders, telephone brackets, note pads, navigation sys-
tems, large, heavy or bulky objects) on the doors, on the wind-
shield, over or near the area marked “AIRBAG” on the steering
wheel, instrument panel, backrests or between these areas and
the occupant. Such objects could cause serious injury in a col-
lision, especially if an airbag inflates.

Page 489 of 578


WARNING
Using a mobile phone or CB radio inside the vehicle without a
properly installed and separate outside antenna can be danger-
ous to your health and that of your passengers because the
electromagnetic radiation energy that mobile phones and CB
radios emit may be above established limits. This also applies if
the outside antenna is not installed properly.
Always keep the mobile phone antenna at least 8 in. (20 cm)
away from pacemakers. Heart specialists advise that mobile
phones can adversely affect the way pacemakers work.
Never carry a mobile phone that is switched on in the breast
pocket directly over a pacemaker.
If you suspect there may be interference with a pacemaker or
other medical device, switch the mobile phone off immediately.
