WARNING
Poor visibility through the door windows,
windscreen and rear window increases the
risk of collisions and accidents which can
cause serious injuries.
x Keep all door windows, the windscreen
and the rear window free from ice, snow
and condensation to maintain perf
ect
visibility.
x Adjust the heating, air conditioning and
rear window heating to prevent conden-
sation from forming on the windows.
x Only set off once all windows are clear.
x Use air recirculation mode for a short
period only. Condensation could other-
wise form very quickly on the windows,
greatly reducing visibility.
x Switch off the air recirculation mode
when it is no longer required. NOTICE
Food, medicine and other items that are sen-
sitiv
e to heat or cold could be either dam-
aged or rendered useless by the air flowing
out of the vents.
x Never leave food, medicines or other tem-
perature-sensitive objects in front of the
vents. NOTICE

switch the air conditioning system off imme-
diately and ha

WARNING
Insufficient anti-freeze in the cooling sys-
tem of the v ehicle can cause the electric
drive to break down and thereby cause se-
rious injuries.
x The amount of correct coolant additive
used must be sufficient for the lowest
ambient temperature that you expect
the vehicle to be exposed to.
x Coolant can freeze at extremely cold
outside temperatures, causing the vehi-
cle to break down. Vehicle occupants
with inadequate winter clothing could
then freeze to death as the heating will
also no longer function. NOTICE
Never mix genuine coolant additives with
other coolants that ha
ve not been approved
by Volkswagen.
x If the liquid in the coolant expansion tank
is not pink (colouring results from mixing
the purple coolant additive with distilled
water) but for example brown instead of
purple, the suitable coolant has been
mixed with an unsuitable coolant additive.
The coolant must be changed as soon as
possible if this is the case. Failure to ob-
serve this warning can result in serious
malfunctions or damage to the electric
drive and cooling system. Coolant and coolant additives can pol-
lute the en

vironment. Spilt service flu-
ids must be collected and disposed of proper-
ly and with respect for the environment. Checking the coolant level
and refilling coolant
