Washing the vehicle with a high-pressure cleaner
I""""'T'n First read and observe the Introductory L.-lo:oJ.I information and safety warnings & on page 380.
Follow the instructions provided by the manufactur-er when cleaning your vehicle using a high-pres-sure cleaner. This applies in particular to the pres-sure and the spraying distance=>&.
Maintain sufficient distance to soft materials such as rubber hoses, insulation, and the ParkPilot sen-sors. The ParkPilot sensors are located in the front bumper, and in some cases also in the rear bump-er =><D.
Never use concentrated jet nozzles or dirt blast-ers=>&.
A WARNING
The incorrect use of a high-pressure cleaner can cause visible and invisible long-term damage to tyres and other materials. This can cause accidents and serious injuries.
• Maintain sufficient distance between the washer jet and the tyres.
• Never clean the tyres with concentrated jet nozzles (dirt blasters). The tyres may incur visible and invisible damage even if cleaned briefly with the spray at a distance.
A WARNING
After the car has been washed, the braking effect could set in later than normal and ex-tend the braking distance as the brake discs and brake pads will be wet, or iced up in win-ter.
• You can "dry and de-ice" the brakes by performing careful braking manoeuvres. Make sure that you do not endanger any oth-er road users or violate any legal regulations when doing so.
CD
• The water may be no warmer than +so·c (+140.FJ.
• Do not wash the vehicle In direct sunlight In order to avoid damage to the vehicle palntwork.
• The ParkPilot sensors In the bumpers must be kept clean and free of Ice. When cleaning with pressure hoses or steam cleaners, the sensors should only be sprayed briefly and the steam/hose nozzle must be kept more than 10 cm away.
• Do not clean windows that are iced over or covered In snow with a high-pressure cleaner.
• Washing the vehicle in cold weather: If the vehicle is rinsed with a hose, do not direct the water Into the lock cylinders or the gaps round the doors, boot, or bonnet. The locks and seals could freeze. <J

.....-T'n First read and observe the Introductory l-J,::JJ Information and safety warnings & on page 394.
Repairs and modifications must always be car-ried out according to Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles specifications =:ob:,!
Unauthorised modifications to the electronic com-ponents or software in the vehicle may cause faults. As the electronic components are linked to-gether in networks. other systems may be affected by the faults. This can seriously impair safety, lead to excessive wear of components, and also invalid-ate the type approval for the vehicle.
The Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles dealer can-not be held liable for any damage caused by tech-nical modifications and/or work performed incor-rectly.

A WARNING (Continued)
• When using products that give off harmful fumes, always work outdoors or In a well-ventilated area.
• Never use fuel, turpentine, engine oil, nail varnish remover or other volatile fluids for vehicle care. They are toxic and highly flam-mable. They could cause fires and explo-sions.
CD
• Only use suitable service fluids for refilling. Never use the wrong service fluid. Failure to observe this warning can result In serious mal-functions and engine damage.
• Optional equipment and other accessories In front of the air Inlet reduce the cooling effect of the coolant. The engine may overheat at high ambient temperatures and high engine loads.
Leaking service fluids can pollute the envi-C!IS ronment. Spilt service fluids must be collec-ted in suitable containers and disposed of properly and with respect for the environment. <l
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends that all repairs and technical modifications be per-formed by an authorised Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles workshop using Volkswagen Genuine Parts®.
Vehicles with special auxiliary equipment or body parts
The manufacturer of these components must en-sure that these parts (fittings) adhere to the stipula-ted environmental laws and regulations, particular-ly the EU directive 2000/53/EC concerning end-of-life vehicles and EU directive 2003/11/EC concern-ing the restriction on the marketing and use of cer-tain dangerous substances and preparations.
The vehicle owner should keep all assembly docu-mentation for these auxiliary fittings, and pass it on to any scrapping company later engaged. This is to facilitate environmentally responsible disposal for all vehicles, Including refitted vehicles.
Windscreen repairs
To function properly, some items of equipment re-quire a camera or sensor, which Is located on the inside of the windscreen near the interior mirror. If the windscreen in the viewing field of the camera ,..

or sensors has been damaged, e.g. by stone im-pact, the windscreen must be replaced. Repairing the crack can lead to malfunction or functional faults in the equipment.
After changing the windscreen, the camera and sensors must be set up and calibrated by a quali-fied workshop.
A WARNING
Incorrect repairs and modifications can cause functional problems and damage to the vehicle and impair the effectiveness of the driver assist systems. This can result In acci-dents and severe Injuries.
• Repairs and modifications to your vehicle should only be carried out by a qualified workshop. <I
Repairs and faults in the airbag system
,....,..,. First read and observe the introductory l.-Jo:-11 Information and safety warnings&. on page 394.
Repairs and modifications must always be car-ried out according to Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles specifications"*&.!
Modifications and repairs to the front bumper, the doors, the front seats, the headliner, or the body-work should be carried out by a qualified work-shop. System components and airbag system sen-sors might be fitted on these vehicle components.
If you work on the airbag system or remove and in-stall parts of the system when performing other re-pair work, parts of the airbag system may be dam-aged. The consequence may be that, in the event of an accident, the airbag inflates incorrectly or does not inflate at all.
Regulations must be observed to ensure that the effectiveness of the airbags is not reduced and that removed parts do not cause any injuries or envi-ronmental pollution. Qualified workshops are famili-ar with these requirements.
Any modifications to the vehicle's suspension could prevent the airbag system from working properly during a collision. For example, using tyre/ rim combinations which have not been approved by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, lowering the vehicle, making modifications to the suspension rate including work on the springs, struts and shock absorbers could cause the forces which are measured by the airbag sensors and sent to the electronic control unit to change. Some changes to the suspension could cause the forces measured by the sensors to increase. This can lead to the airbag system being triggered in collision scenarios
where it normally would not be triggered if modifi-cations to the suspension had not been made. Other modifications can cause the forces meas-ured by the sensors to decrease. therefore pre-venting the airbag system from being triggered when it should have been.
A WARNING
Incorrect repairs and modifications can cause function problems and damage to the vehicle and Impair the effectiveness of the alrbag system. This can result In accidents and serious or even fatal injuries.
• Repairs and modifications to your vehicle should only be carried out by a qualified workshop.
• Alrbag modules cannot be repaired. They must be replaced.
• Never use recycled airbag components or components that have been taken from end-of-life vehicles In your vehicle.
A WARNING
Modifications to the vehicle's suspension, in-cluding the use of unsuitable tyre/rim combi-nations, can cause the alrbag system to work differently and increase the risk of serious or fatal injuries In the event of an accident.
• Never install any components in the sus-pension system that do not have the same characteristics as the original factory-fitted components.
• Never use tyre/rim combinations that have not been approved by Volkswagen Commer-cial Vehicles. <I
