Driving
With the help of this system, the ABS is activa-
t ed mor
e quickly and mor
e efficiently.
The brake assist function is deactivated auto-
matically when the brake pedal is released.
Hill hold control (HHC)*
The HHC system makes it easier to start the
vehicle on hills. The system maintains the
brake pressure created by pressing down on
the brake pedal for 2 seconds after it has
been released. Your foot can be removed
from the brake pedal and you can use the
accelerator pedal and move away on a hill
without having to use the handbrake. The
brake pressure drops as the accelerator ped-
al is pressed. If the vehicle cannot be started,
it will start to move backwards after 2 sec-
onds.
The HHC is activated on gradients of over 5%,
if the driver door is closed. It only works for
starting on hills, moving both forward and in
reverse. It is not activated during start-up
down hill.
Control lamp
If the control lamp ! flashes, the ESC is working.
If the ! warning lamp illuminates on ignition,
the ESC system may have switched off due to
technical reasons. Turn off the ignition and
turn it on again. Upon switching on the igni-
tion again, if the warning lamp has switched off, this means the ESC is functioning correct-
ly again.
If the !
warning lamp is illuminat
ed there is a
fault in the ESC.
The informative display indicates:
Fault: electronic stability con-
trol (ESC)
or Fault: traction control system
(ASR)
Go to a technical service. Note
If the battery is disconnected and connec-
ted again, the yell o

w warning lamp !
lights up when the ignition is switched on.
This warning lamp must switch off after
covering a short distance. Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
The ABS system prevents the wheels locking
during br
aking. This helps the driv
er k

eep
control of the vehicle.
The driver is made aware of ABS assistance
by the pulsating of the brake pedal and a
characteristic noise.
Keep the brake pedal pressed down while the
ABS is working. The ABS will switch off when the brake pedal is released. Never brake in-
termittently whil

e the ABS is working!
Control lamp
If the  warning lamp is illuminated, there is a fault in the ABS.
The informative display indicates:
ABS fault
The brake system alone is operational in the
vehicle, without ABS.
Go to a technical service. WARNING

Start and driving
If the control lamp ! fl ashes, the ASR is w
ork -
ing.
If the ! warning lamp illuminates on ignition, the TCS system may have switched off due to
technical reasons. Turn off the ignition and
turn it on again. Upon switching on the igni-
tion again, if the warning lamp has switched
off, this means the TCS is functioning correct-
ly again.
If the ! warning lamp remains illuminated,
there is a fault in the TCS.
The informative display indicates:
Fault: traction control system
(ASR)
Go to a technical service.
Electronic differential lock If one of the wheels starts to skid, the EDL
br
ak
es that wheel, tr

ansmitting the driving
force to the other wheels. This increases vehi-
cle stability and improves driving stability.
To prevent the disc brake of the braking
wheel from overheating, the EDL cuts out au-
tomatically if subjected to excessive loads.
The vehicle will continue to function normally
without EDL. The EDL will switch on again au-
tomatically when the brake has cooled down. Manual gearbox

Driving
pollutant emissions are also especially high
during this initial w arm-up phase
. It is ther
e-
fore best to drive off immediately after start-
ing the engine. Avoid running the engine at
high speed.
Periodic maintenance
Periodic maintenance work guarantees that,
before beginning a journey, you will not con-
sume more than the required amount of fuel.
A well-serviced engine gives you the benefit
of improved fuel efficiency as well as maxi-
mum reliability and an enhanced resale val-
ue.
A badly serviced engine can consume up to
10% more fuel than necessary.
Avoid short journeys
To reduce the consumption and emission of
polluting exhaust gases, the engine and the
exhaust gas filtration systems should reach
the optimum operating temperature.
With the engine cold, fuel consumption is pro-
portionally higher. The engine does not warm
up and fuel consumption does not normalise
until having driven approximately four kilome-
tres (2.5 miles). This is why we recommend
avoiding short trips whenever possible.
Maintain the correct tyre pressures
Bear in mind that keeping the tyres at an ade-
quate pressure saves fuel. If the tyre pressure is just one bar (14.5 psi/100 kPa) too low, fuel
consumption can increase by as much as 5%.
Due to the gr
eater rolling resistance, under-
inflation also increases tyre wear wear and
impairs handling.
The tyre pressures should always be checked
when the tyres are cold.
Do not use winter tyres all year round as
they increase fuel consumption by up to 10%.
Avoid unnecessary weight
Given that every kilo of extra weight will in-
crease the fuel consumption, it is advisable to
always check the luggage compartment to
make sure that no unnecessary loads are be-
ing transported.
A roof rack is often left in place for the sake of
convenience, even when it is no longer nee-
ded. At a speed of 100 km/h (62 mph) and
120 km/h (75 mph) your vehicle will use about
12% more fuel as a result of the extra wind re-
sistance caused by the roof rack even when it
is not in use.
Save electricity
The engine activates the alternator, which
produces electricity. With the need for elec-
tricity, fuel consumption also increases. Be-
cause of this, always turn off electrical devi-
ces when you do not need them. Examples of
devices that use a lot of electricity are: the fan at high speeds, the rear window heating
and the seat heaters*. Note

Checking and refilling levels
Engine oil Gener al not
es The engine comes with a special, multi-grade
oil that can be used all year round.
Because the use of high-qualit
y oil is essen-
tial f
or the correct operation of the engine
and its long useful life, when topping up or
changing oil, use only those oils that comply
with VW standards.
We recommend that the oil change indicated
in the Maintenance Programme, be per-
formed by a technical service or specialised
workshop.
If the engine oil level is too low
You can get information about the correct en-
gine oil for your vehicle at your specialised
shop. If you have to change your engine oil,
use that oil.
If the recommended engine oil is not availa-
ble, in the event of an emergency you can
add oil once up to a maximum of 0.5 L of the
next oil until the next oil change:

Practical tips
available, in the event of an emergency. In
this case , use only w
at
er and bring the cool-
ant concentration back up to the correct lev-
el as soon as possible at an Official Service.
Always top up with unused coolant.
Never fill the coolant tank above mark A(max.)
