NOTICE
Please be careful when parking your vehicle in areas with
parking barriers or curbs. These vary in height and could dam-
age your bumper and related parts if the front of your vehicle
hits a barrier or curb that is too high while you are getting into or
out of a parking spot.
Always be careful when you enter a driveway or drive up or
down steep ramps or over curbs or other obstacles. Parts of the
vehicle close to the ground may be damaged (such as bumper
covers, spoilers, and parts of the engine, suspension, and ex-
haust systems).

2 Slight differences to these figures are possible, depending on wheel and tire size fitted and the level selected.

WARNING
Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text mes-
sages can cause the vehicle to break down in traffic and result
in a collision and serious personal injury.
Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.
Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Whenever stalled or stopped for repair, move the vehicle a
safe distance off the road, stop the engine, turn on the emer-
gency flashers, and use other warning devices to warn ap-
proaching traffic.
Never park the vehicle in areas where the hot catalytic con-
verter and exhaust system can come into contact with dry
grass, brush, spilled fuel, oil, or other material that can catch
fire.
A broken down vehicle presents a high accident risk for itself
and others. Switch on emergency flashers and set up a warning
triangle to warn oncoming traffic.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in
vehicle damage.
High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights provide bright, uniform
lighting to help you see and be seen. The light comes from an electric
arc between two electrodes in the gas-filled bulb. Over time, the elec-
trodes can wear down and the gap between them will get wider. The
HID lamp’s control unit then increases the voltage to keep the arc’s
brightness constant. However, the commonly called “Xenon” bulbs
will also ultimately burn out. Before they burn out, HID lamps can
flicker. A message will then appear in the MFI. This is your reminder
to see an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized
Volkswagen Service facility to check the headlights.

Recommended cleaners
For the warmer months, Windscreen Clear SummerG 052 184 A1
or equivalent. Mixing ratio 1:100 (1 part concentrate to 100 parts wa-
ter) in the windshield washer reservoir.
All-season Windscreen ClearG 052 164 A2 or equivalent. Mixing
ratio in winter to 0 °F (-18 °C) about 1:2 (1 part concentrate to 2 parts
water), otherwise, mixing ratio 1:4 in the windshield washer reservoir.
Filling capacity
The windshield washer fluid reservoir holds about 3.1 qts. (3 liters); in
vehicles with a headlight cleaning system about 6.3 qts. (6 liters).
WARNING
Never mix antifreeze or similar additives into the windshield
washer reservoir. This could produce an oily film on the wind-
shield, which would considerably reduce visibility.
Use clear water with a cleaning solution recommended by
Volkswagen.
If necessary, blend with a suitable windshield washer fluid
antifreeze agent.
NOTICE
Never mix cleaning solutions recommended by Volkswagen
with other cleaning agents. If you do, this could cause sedi-
ments or other by-products that can clog the windshield washer
nozzles.
When refilling, do not confuse one type of operating liquid
with another! Otherwise serious malfunctions and engine dam-
age can occur!

The tires and wheels are essential parts of the vehicle's design. The
tires and wheels approved by Volkswagen are specially matched to
the characteristics of the vehicle for good road holding and safe han-
dling when in good condition and properly inflated.
Avoiding tire damage
If you must drive over a curb or other obstacle, drive very slowly
and as much as possible at a right angle to the curb with the tire tread
of both front wheels contacting the curb at the same time.
Regularly check tires for damage, such as punctures, cuts, tears
and blisters.
Remove embedded material in the tread profile that has not yet
penetrated the inside of the tire ⇒ Tire wear and damage.
Heed all warning messages from the Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem
Replace worn or damaged tires immediately ⇒  Tire wear and
damage.
Damage to tires and wheels is often not readily visible. If you notice
unusual vibration or the vehicle pulls to one side, this may indicate
that one of the tires is damaged. The tires must be checked immedi-
ately for hidden damage by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an
authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. See also ⇒ Tire wear and
damage.
Never exceed the load and permissible maximum speed rating of
the tires ⇒ Tire labeling.
Always keep aggressive chemicals including grease, oil, gasoline
and brake fluid off the tires, including the spare wheel ⇒ .
Replace missing valve caps immediately.
Unidirectional tires
Unidirectional tires are designed to rotate only in one direction. Unidi-
rectional tires have arrows on the sidewalls that show the direction of
rotation ⇒ Tire labeling. Unidirectional tires must always be mounted
according to the specified direction of rotation in order to deliver their
best grip, braking performance, low road noise, and good wear as
well as good hydroplaning resistance.
If you have to mount a tire opposite to its proper direction of rotation,
you must drive more carefully, since the tire is no longer being used
as designed. This is particularly important on wet roads. You must

replace or remount the tire as soon as possible in order to restore the
correct direction of rotation.
Rotating tires
To help ensure even wear on all tires, regular tire rotation according
to the diagram ⇒ fig. 110 is recommended. In this way all tires can
have about the same service life.
Volkswagen recommends that you have your tires rotated by an au-
thorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facili-
ty.
Tires more than 6 years old
Tires age even if they are not being used. Physical and chemical pro-
cesses reduce tire strength and performance and cause them to
harden and become brittle. Old tires can fail suddenly and without
warning.
Volkswagen recommends replacing tires that are 6 years and older.
This also applies to tires that look new (an unused spare and the tire
on the compact spare wheel) or that seem to still be usable with tread
depth that has not yet reached the legal minimum depth ⇒ .
The age of each tire can be determined with the manufacturing date
that is part of the U.S. DOT tire identification number (4).) ⇒ Tire label-
ing.
Tire storage
Mark tires before removing them to help make sure that the previous
location (left, right, front, rear) and rolling direction can be maintained
when remounting them. Store tires in a cool, dry and preferably dark
place. Do not store tires mounted on wheels standing up.
Tires not mounted on wheels should be covered to help protect them
from dirt and stored vertically (sitting on the tread).
WARNING
Aggressive fluids and materials can cause visible and invisible
tire damage that can cause tire blowouts.
Always keep chemicals, oils, grease, fuels, braking fluids and
other aggressive substances away from tires.

miles (kilometers) at low speeds in the 3 hour period before the tire
pressure is measured or adjusted.

maximum capacity of fuel, oil, and coolant, air conditioner, and addi-
tional weight of optional equipment.

A tire designed to operate at higher loads and at higher inflation pres-
sures than the corresponding standard tire.

Load rating (code)
The maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given inflation

sure for that tire.
Maximum loaded vehicle weight
The total of:
Curb weight.
Accessory weight.
