In some model versions or in certain countries, it is possible to
insert the ignition key and have the dash panel lights go on
without switching the engine on. This function is independent of
the vehicle's light connections.
Arrangement of instruments depends on the model and the engine
fitted.

Temperature of the engine oil*
Do not demand full performance from the engine when the engine
oil is cold. If in exceptional conditions the indicator is in the upper
area, reduce the revolutions. The needle should return to the
normal range.
If the needle remains in the upper zone, stop the vehicle and turn
the engine off. Check the oil level in the engine. If the oil level is
correct and the oil pressure pilot lamp does not switch off when
you turn the engine on, drive to the nearest Technical Service
Centre, avoiding high revolutions.
K
Revolutions counter*
On no account must the revolutions counter needle move into the
red zone of the scale.

Changing up in good time helps to save fuel and keep the noise down.
Change down a gear at the latest when the engine turn over is no
longer smooth.
Avoid high engine revolutions during the running-in period.
K
Digital clock*
To set the digital clock turn knob Alocated on the lower left next
to the rev counter.
• The hours are set by turning the button anti-clockwise until it
stops. By turning the knob once, you move forward one hour. By
turning and holding the knob, the hours move forward
continuously.
• The minutes are set by turning the button clockwise until it stops.
By turning the knob once, you move forward one minute. By
turning and holding the knob, the minutes move forward
continuously.
The knob can be used to set the clock to the exact second.
• Turn the knob to the right until the time is set to exactly one
minute before the required time.
• Turn the button to the right just as the seconds indicator of an
accurately set clock shows one full minute.
Turning the button to the left sets the clock to the required arrow.
K
Outside temperature indicator*
The outside temperature is displayed when the ignition is on.
At temperatures from +5°C to –5°C, a snowflake symbol is
displayed along with the temperature.
The snowflake symbol is to warn the driver to take extra care when
there is a risk of ice forming on the road.

Ask your Technical Service Centre or automobile club where

K
Properties of RME
•RME is chemically produced from vegetable oil (predominantly
rapeseed oil) in a process whereby the oil is mixed with methanol
and converted, via a catalyst, into RME.
•RME is almost totally sulfur free. The combustion of RME thus
emits practically no sulfur dioxide (SO
2).
•Exhaust gas contains less
– carbon monoxide
– hydrocarbons
– particles (i.e. soot)
than with conventional diesel fuel.
All emission values are lower than legal requirements.
•RME fuel is biodegradable.
•Performance may be slightly lower.
•Fuel consumption may be slightly higher.
•RME can be used in temperatures down to approximately –10 °C.
•Diesel fuel must be added at ambient temperatures of less than
–10 °C to prevent deterioration to the biodiesel. The mixing ratio
of diesel to biodiesel must be approximately 50:50.

166Intelligent technology
The vehicle stabilizes through the braking force on the wheel. If the
vehicle swings out (tendency of the tail to swing out) the brakes
will act on the exterior front wheel. In case the swerve is
insufficient (tendency to leave the curve) the braking force willbe
exerted on the interior rear wheel The braking generates a noise.P Po

Do not keep the steering wheel fully turned more than 15 seconds
when the engine is switched on, as the hydraulic oil will be heated
to a high temperature by the servo pump.

Furthermore every time you turn the steering wheel as far as it will
go with the engine off, you will hear a series of noises made by the
excessive effort of the servo pump. The engine tick over may also
be reduced for a short time.

(closing windows and sliding roof).
You do not need to remove the Original roof aerial.
• If there are special fittings on the vehicle – e.g. spoilers, roof rack, two-
way radio aerial – it is best to speak to the car wash operator.

Paint
shampoo, preferably with a neutral pH, should only be used for
very persistent dirt. Rinse the sponge or glove out thoroughly at
short intervals.
Wheels and sill panels should be cleaned last, using a different
sponge if possible.
After cleaning the vehicle, rinse thoroughly with water and leather
it off.N No

•The vehicle should not be washed in strong sunshine.
•If the vehicle is rinsed with a hose, do not direct the jet of water
at the lock cylinders and the door/boot lid/tailgate shut lines –
they can freeze up in the winter.
K
Washing vehicle with high pressure cleaner
• The operating instructions for the high pressure cleaner must be
followed closely – particularly with regard to pressure and working
distance.
• Do not use a concentrated jet.
• The water temperature must not be above 60°C.
Conservation
Regular application of protection products protects the vehicle
paintwork to a large extent against the environmental influences
listed under “Washing” on the previous page and even against
light mechanical damage.
At the latest when water on the clean paint does not form small
drops and roll off, the vehicle should be protected by applying a
coat of good hard wax. Even when a wax solution is used regularly

182Care and maintenance
If the engine compartment is cleaned at any time with grease
removing solutions1)or if one has the engine washed, the anti-
corrosion compound is nearly always removed as well. It is
therefore essential to ask for durable preservation of all surfaces,
seams, joints and components in the engine compartment to be
carried out. This applies also when corrosion protected parts are
renewed.

Because when washing the engine petrol, grease and oil deposits are
washed off, the dirty water must be cleaned by an oil separator. For this
reason engine washing should only be carried out in a workshop or filling
station.
K
Undercoating
The underside of the vehicle is coated with a special compound to
protect it from corrosion and damage.
However, as this protective layer becomes damaged when the
vehicle is in use, the protective coating under the body and on the
running gear should be examined at defined intervals – preferably
before and after the winter season – and any damage made good.N No

Due to the high temperatures which occur in the afterburning
process, additional heat shields are fitted over the catalytic
converter. Underbody sealant must not be applied to these
shields, the catalytic converter or the exhaust pipes. Removal of
the heat shields is also not permissible.
K
Cavity preservation
All cavities on the vehicle which could be susceptible to corrosion
are given permanent protection at the factory.
This coating does not need checking or any subsequent treatment.
Should a small amount of wax run out of the cavities at high
ambient temperatures it can be removed with a plastic scraper and
some white spirit.

Specifications
The engine comes with a special, high quality, multi grade oil that
can be used in all seasons of the year except for those regions
affected by extreme cold.
As the use of high quality oil is essential for the correct operation
of the engine and its long useful life, when topping up or
replacement is necessary use only those oils that conform to the
requirements of the VW standards.
If it is not possible to find oil conforming to the VW standards then
oil conforming to the ACEA or API standards with an appropriate
viscosity at atmospheric temperature should be used instead. The
use of this type of oil may have some repercussions on the
performance of the engine for example, long starting time,
increased consumption and a higher emission level.
If a top up is required then different oils may be mixed as long as
they all conform to the VW standards.
The specifications (VW standards) set out in the following page
should appear on the container of the service oil; the container will
display together the different standards for petrol and diesel
engines, the oil can be used for both types of engines.

The viscosity class is selected according to the diagram above. If
atmospheric temperature falls outside of the described limits for
only a short period then an oil change is not necessary.
