–Extract a small quantity of coolant with the pipette and
place on the measuring glass. Hold unit against a light
source and read off the temperature down to which
antifreeze protection exists on the scale for ethylene
glycol.
♦Antifreeze protection must be ensured down to about
-25 C.
♦Down to about -35 C in countries with an arctic cli-
mate.
♦If a greater antifreeze concentration is required for cli-
matic reasons, the concentration may be increased up
to 60 % (i.e. antifreeze protection down to about -40
C). Any further increase in concentration increase
would reduce the antifreeze protection and impair
cooling efficiency.
Replenishing coolant additive
♦Coolant additive G12 - red in colour, complying with
standard TL VW 774 D, must not be mixed with other
coolant additives which comply with standard TL VW
774 C(B) -bluish-green in colour-. If these two coolant
additives are mixed the coolant will turn brown. Brown
coolant must be drained immediately, the cooling sys-
tem flushed out with drinking water and filled with
fresh coolant. If this is not done the engine and cooling
system may suffer damage.
♦Coolant additives complying with standard TL VW 774
C (G11) -bluish-green in colour-, must only be used
for topping up on vehicles fitted with a cooling system
which is already filled with this coolant.
♦Vehicles produced as of MJ 03 are filled with coolant
additive G12 PLUS which has a lilac colour and con-
forms with the standard TL VW 774 F.
♦Coolant additive G12 PLUS must only be mixed with
coolant additives G12 and G11.
♦Coolant additive G12 PLUS is recommended for use
on all vehicles when changing the coolant.
If the vehicle is filled with the recommended coolant and
the antifreeze protection is not adequate, drain part of the
coolant from the cooling system.
–After this, fill the cooling system with concentrated
coolant additive.

–Perform a test drive and again check the coolant anti-
freeze protection.
Inspecting coolant level (volume)
–The coolant expansion reservoir is located on the right
of the engine compartment.
–Inspect coolant level only when the engine is not run-
ning.
Specified coolant level for the Inspection Service:
•Engine cold: between„MAX“ and „MIN“ marking.
•Engine warm: slightly above the „MAX“ marking.
♦The cooling system is filled all year round with a mix-
ture of water and antifreeze/anti-corrosion agent.
Coolant additives prevent damage from frost and cor-
rosion and the accumulation of lime scale while also
raising the boiling point of the coolant. For these rea-
sons the cooling system must always be filled all year
round with radiator antifreeze and anti-corrosion
agent offering these properties.
♦Coolant additive G12 - red in colour, complying with
standard TL VW 774 D, must not be mixed with other
coolant additives which comply with standard TL VW
774 C(B) -bluish-green in colour-. If these two coolant
additives are mixed the coolant will turn brown. Brown
coolant must be drained immediately, the cooling sys-
tem flushed out with drinking water and filled with
fresh coolant. If this is not done the engine and cooling
system may suffer damage. Engine Coolant capacity

–Repeat the procedure for all wheels in the following
sequence: rear left, front right and front left.
1)
–Insert strainer in the brake fluid reservoir and fill with
brake fluid up to the specified level.
–Inspect pedal position and idle travel at brake pedal.
Idle travel: max. 1/3 of pedal travel.
Vehicles with ABS or ABS/EDL:
A road test on such models must be carried out after
bleeding the brake system. While doing so perform at
least one ABS adjustment!
Inspecting the brake fluid level
Use only fresh genuine brake fluid FMVSS 571.116 DOT
4.
The brake fluid must not be above the „MAX“ marking to
prevent fluid flowing out of the reservoir.
Delivery Inspection
The brake fluid level during the delivery inspection should
be at the „MAX“ marking.
Inspection Service:
–The brake fluid level (volume) must always be as-
sessed on the basis of the brake pad wear. When driv-
ing a slight drop in the brake fluid level occurs as a
result of wear-and-tear and the automatic slack ad-
justment of the brake pads.
–If the fluid brake level is on the „MIN“ marking or slight-
ly above, it is not necessary to top up the brake fluid if
the brake pads have practically reached their wear
limit.
–If the brake pads are new or far off the brake wear lim-
it, the brake fluid level must be between the „MIN“ and
„MAX“ markings.
–If the brake fluid level has dropped below the „MIN“
marking, it is necessary to inspect the brake system
before topping up the brake fluid ⇒02-5 page 2; car-
ry out repair measure if necessary.
1)for right-hand drive vehicles the following sequence applies: rear right, front left and front right
WARNING!
Brake fluid is toxic. Because of its caustic effect
brake fluid must not come into contact with
paint.
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs mois-
ture from the surrounding air . Therefore it
should always be stored in airtight containers.

Test and setting conditions
•Tyre inflation pressure O.K.
•Lenses must neither be damaged nor soiled.
•Reflectors and bulbs O.K.
•Vehicle load must be achieved.
Load: With an individual or 75 kg on the driver's seat in an
otherwise unladen vehicle (dead weight).
The unladen weight is the weight of the vehicle with full
fuel tank (at least 90 %) including the weight of all the op-
erational equipment elements (e.g. spare wheel, tool kit,
jack etc.).
The vehicle must have rolled a few metres or have been
depressed a few times at the front and rear to allow the
springs to settle.
•Both the vehicel and headlight beam setting device
must be on a level flat surface.
•Align the vehicle and headlight beam setting device in
accordance with the device manufaturer's indications.
•Check the control system of vehicles equipped with
headlight beam control by repeatedly turning the
thumbwheel in the dash panel. Then turn the thum-
bwheel to basic position.
•Set the inclination value.
Inclination value:
The inclination value is marked in „%“ at the top of the
headlight housing. The main headlights must be set to
this value. The percentage value applies up to 10 metres
projection distance. This will be 12 cm for an inclination
value of e.g. 1.2 %.
Inspecting headlight beam setting and adjusting
if necessary
Main headlights:
–Check whether the horizontal light/dark limit touches
the separation mark -1- on the test surface when the
low beam light is on .
–Check whether the kink -2- between the left horizontal
part and the ascending right part of the light/dark limit
intersects with the central mark -3- on the vertical line.
The light core of the light beam must be located to the
right of the vertical line.132

♦To easily determine the kink -2-, alternately cover and
uncover the left half of the headlight (in the driving di-
rection) a few times. After this, check the low beam
once again.
♦Once the low beam light has been correctly set the
centre of the light beam of the main beam must be po-
sitioned on the central mark -3-.
♦The adjustment foreseen for the new control screen
also applies for the previous one, which has a 15 ad-
justing line. To avoid incorrect settings disregard the
15 adjusting line.

Airbag units: Visual inspection
Inspecting operation of airbag unit
When the ignition is switched on the airbag warning lamp
K75 lights up for approximately 4 seconds. Should the
warning lamp flash again for a further 12 seconds this is
an indication that the front passenger airbag or the side
airbag unit on the front passenger is electronically locked
(valid for vehicles which do not have an airbag switch-off
function).
The warning lamp will go out after 4 seconds for vehicles
which are fitted with an airbag switch-off function and
switching off of the front passenger airbag will be sig-
nalled by the warning lamp „AIRBAG OFF“ in the middle
of the dash panel.
♦If warning lamp K75 does not go out after 4 seconds
and lights up continously there is a fault.
♦If the warning lamp goes out and then lights up again
the control unit is not coded, the wrong control unit has
been fitted or there is a fault.
♦If the airbag warning light K75 flashes constantly, it is
then necessary to replace the airbag control unit J234.
If the warning light indicates a fault, the fault must be
rectified (repair measure) Body Work; Rep. Gr. 01.
Inspecting airbag for external damage
Driver and front passenger airbag units
The logo „AIRBAG“ on the padded boss of the steering
wheel (driver's side) and on the right side of the dash pan-
el (passenger side) indicates that an airbag is fitted.
–Carry out a visual inspection of the padded boss of the
steering wheel -1- and surface of the dash panel -2-
on the front passenger side for external damage.
–Undertake a visual inspection of the front seats to de-
termine any damage (valid for vehicles with side air-
bags).
♦Only use original seat upholstery approved for side
airbags.
♦The use of commercially available protective seat cov-
ers is prohibited as this impairs the operation of the
side airbags.
♦Replace all harpoon clips with new original parts.
♦In the event of damage to the upholstery - tears, burn
holes etc. - in the area of the side airbag always re-
place the upholstery with a new original part for safety
reasons.
