not deploy correctly or at all, or it may deploy unexpectedly.
This could cause fatal injuries.

thorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility.

bag components is wet, electrical components and the vehicle
electrical system could be damaged.
If the seating surface becomes soaked, have it dried and the
system components checked immediately by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Do not use steam cleaners because the steam could cause the
dirt to penetrate deeper into the fabric and make it impossible to
remove.

stery.
NOTICE

After each cleaning, apply cream that waterproofs the leather and
protects it against the sun. Such creams also nourish the leather, let it
breathe, keep it flexible and moisturized. At the same time it protects
the surface.
Clean leather every 2 to 3 months and remove any new stains.
Treat leather with a suitable leather-care product twice a year ⇒ .
Apply cleaning and conditioning materials sparingly and always
with a dry, lint-free cotton or wool cloth. Do not apply cleaning and
conditioning materials directly to the leather.
Remove fresh stains such as ballpoint pen, lipstick, ink, shoe
polish, etc. as soon as possible.
Preserve the leather's color. If necessary, refresh fading spots with
a specially-colored leather cream.
Wipe the leather with a soft cloth.
Cleaning
Volkswagen recommends using a slightly moistened cotton or wool
cloth for general cleaning.
It is important not to let water soak through the leather or penetrate
into seams.
Before cleaning leather surfaces, read and heed the information ⇒ ,

WARNING
Items stored between the safety belt buckle and the center con-
sole can cause safety belt buckle to send the wrong infor-
mation to the airbag control unit and prevent the Advanced Air-
bag System from working properly.
Always make sure that nothing can interfere with the safety
belt buckles and that they are not obstructed.
WARNING
Improper care and servicing, and improper modification and
repair work, can increase the risk of personal injury and death
by preventing an airbag from deploying when needed or de-
ploying an airbag unexpectedly:
Never repair, adjust, or change any parts of the airbag sys-
tem.
All work on the airbag system, steering wheel, instrument
panel, front seats or electrical system (including the installation
of audio equipment, mobile telephones and CB radios, etc.)
should be performed by authorized Volkswagen dealers or au-
thorized Volkswagen Service Facilities. They have the neces-
sary manuals, training, and special equipment.
The airbag system can be activated only once. After an air-
bag has inflated, it must be replaced.
Use only original equipment airbags approved by
Volkswagen. Have them installed by a trained technician who
has the necessary tools and diagnostic equipment to properly
replace any airbag in your vehicle and assure system effective-
ness in a crash.
Never permit salvaged or recycled airbags to be installed in
your vehicle.
