Mobile or cellular telephones send and receive radio waves, some-
times called “radiofrequency energy” (RF energy), both when they are
being used and when they are in standby mode. Current scientific
literature indicates that radio waves that exceed a certain level can
have effects on the human body. Limits and guidelines have been
established by governmental authorities and international committees
in an effort to keep the electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones
at levels that will not cause health problems. However, there is no
scientifically based proof that wireless phones are absolutely safe.
Therefore, some experts recommend a precautionary approach re-
garding the use of mobile phones by taking measures that lower the
personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. When using a mobile
telephone inside a motor vehicle without a proper connection to an
integrated vehicle telephone antenna, the personal exposure to elec-
tromagnetic fields will be higher than when using the mobile tele-
phone while properly connected to an integrated or other outside ve-
hicle telephone antenna.
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional hands-free system
that will permit many of the features of compatible Bluetooth® enabled
mobile telephones to be used for greater convenience and is con-
sistent with the laws of an increasing number of states and localities
that prohibit the use of mobile telephones without some kind of
hands-free device.
The hands-free system in your vehicle can be used with certain mo-
bile phones that are connected by wire and hardware connector or via
compatible Bluetooth® enabled phones with a cradle that is designed
to fit your mobile telephone.The special cradle offers several ad-
vantages: The phone cradle must be safely secured to the base plate.
Your phone is firmly attached to the instrument panel and is within
reach at all times. Placing the phone in its cradle permits it to be
charged, but more importantly connects the mobile phone to the vehi-
cle's outside antenna. A mobile telephone that is properly connected
to the integrated or other outside vehicle telephone antenna will lower
the personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. You should also ex-
perience a better quality of service. Although a mobile telephone can
be used inside your vehicle without a cradle, the phone will not be
securely attached to the vehicle, will not be charged through the cra-
dle wiring, and more importantly will not be connected to the vehicle's
integrated telephone antenna. The mobile phone will also not be re-

charged. You might also experience more dropped calls and an over-
all impaired quality of the connection.
Therefore we strongly recommend that you use your mobile tele-
phone in your vehicle only when it is properly attached to an appro-
priate cradle mounted on a base plate on the instrument panel.
Because of the large number and variety of mobile telephones on the
market and the frequency with which new models are introduced,
Volkswagen does not offer cradles for mobile telephones. Please
check with the manufacturer of the mobile telephone that you plan to
use.

WARNING
A mobile phone on the seat, instrument panel or in other places
can be thrown around the inside of the vehicle during a sudden
braking maneuver, a crash or other accident and injure vehicle
occupants.
Never place or attach accessories or other objects (such as
cup holders, telephone brackets, note pads, navigation sys-
tems, large, heavy or bulky objects) on the doors, on the wind-
shield, over or near the area marked “AIRBAG” on the steering
wheel, instrument panel, backrests or between these areas and
the occupant. Such objects could cause serious injury in a col-
lision, especially if an airbag inflates.
