service interval VOLKSWAGEN EOS 2008 Owners Manual

Pinch protection can help reduce the risk of pinching injuries when closing a power window ⇒ . If one-touch window closing meets resistance or there is something in the way, the window will stop and go down again.
x Check why the window did not close.
x Try one-touch window closing again.
x If the window meets resistance a second time, so that it stops and goes back down, one-touch closing is deactivated for about 10 seconds.
x If you pull the power window button up all the way and hold it during this 10 second interval, the
window will close without pinch protection ⇒ .
Closing the window without pinch protection
x Try to close the window again within 10 seconds by holding the switch. Pinch protection is turned off for a short distance in the window track!
x If closing takes longer than about 10 seconds, pinch protection is turned on again. The window stops again if there is resistance.
x If the window still will not close, please see an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
WARNING
Without pinch protection, power windows will close with enough force to cause serious per-sonal injury.
x Always be careful when closing power windows.
x Always make sure that no one is in the way when overriding pinch protection to close power windows!
x Pinch protection cannot prevent fingers or other parts of the body from being pressed against the window frame; injuries may result.
Pinch protection is also active during convenience closing of the windows and the power sunroof, Power locking and closing system.

WARNING
x An improperly installed or incorrect trailer hitch can cause a trailer to separate from the tow vehicle and cause serious personal injuries.
x If you don't have to tow a trailer any more, remove the entire trailer hitch. Always seal all bolt holes to prevent water and deadly exhaust fumes from getting into the vehicle.
NOTICE
x If the trailer lights are not connected properly, the vehicle's electronics may be damaged.
x If the trailer uses too much electricity, the vehicle's electronics may be damaged.
x Never connect the electrical system for the trailer directly to the electrical connections for the rear lights or to any other unsuitable power sources. Use only a suitable connector to provide power to the trailer.
If you tow a trailer frequently, Volkswagen recommends having the vehicle serviced between the regular maintenance and inspection intervals because of the extra load it has to pull.
