Starting the engine
General hints
Attention When starting the engine in con­fined spaces there is a danger of poisoning.
• Before starting, move gear lever to neu·
tral (with automatic gearbox: Selector lever in "P" or"N" position) and apply handbrake fi rmly
•
On vehicles with a manual gearbox de­
press the clutch pedal when operating
starter
so that starter only has to turn en­
gine .
• As soon
as engine starts, release the
ignition key so that starter can dise ngage .
• After starting a co
ld engine It may sound
noisy for a moment or two because the 011 pressure has to build up in the hydraulic
tappets first. This is normal and no cause for
alarm .
~Do not warm engine up by run­~ning it with vehicle stationary. Drive off straight away.
Do not overrev or use full throttle until the
engine has reached the normal operating
temperature .
• On vehicles with a catalytic con­verter the engine must not be started by towing the vehicle in ex· cess of 50 m. Otherwise unburnt fuel can pass into the converter and lead to damage.
• Before trying to start engine by towing, the battery from another ve· hicle should be used for starting if possible -see page 128.
Petrol engines
These engines are equipped with a petrol in­
jection system that automat ically supp lies
the correct fuel/air mixture at all ambient
temperatures.
When engine
is cold or at operating temperature do not accelerate before or
during the starting procedure.
I f the engin e does not start at once, stop
us ing th e starter after 10 secs. wait about
half a m in ute and then try again.
If the engine sti
ll does not start, the electric
fuel pump fuse may have blown -see page
119 .
When the engine
is very hot it may be
neces sary to accelerate slightl y after the
engine has start
ed.

47 and 55 kW engines
Starting a cold engine
• At ambient temperatures down to -155C, pull the cold start knob out fully before operating the sta rter .
At lower t em pe rature s, the knob should not
be pulle d out until engine is firing reg­ularly -the engine wi ll then start more
readily .
•
Turn the key in the igniti on lock to posi­
tion 2 (see page 35) -the glow plug wa rning
lamp comes on. It goes out when the igni­
t ion tempera ture is reached (see page 47) While the glow plugs are working do not switch on any other heavy cur­rent consumers because this would place an unnecessary load on the battery.

the engine immediatel y
D o not depress the acce lerator while star
t­ing
If the
engine only fire s irregul arly, continue to ope rate the starter a few seconds longer (30 seconds at maximum) until the engine
runs under its own power. If
the eng ine does not start , switch the g
low plugs on again and try starting it again as de­
scr ibed . If th e eng ine still doe s not start the
fuse for the glow plugs may have blown ­
page 120 .
• Push the cold start aid knob
in fully as soon as the engin e has rea ched its norma l
operating te mper ature.
If ve hicle vibrati on then
occurs whe n i dling,
the knob can be pul led out again until the en­
gine runs free of vibration at the lowest
pos sible idling speed
Starting a warm engine
The glow plug lamp does not come on -the engin e can be started straight away. D o not pull the cold s tart aid knob and do not press
the accelerator pedal.

Stopping engine

Starting a cold engine
Ambient temperature above +5 0C:

The engine can be started without pre­
glow Do not depress throttle during the

starting procedure.

Ambient temperature below +5 0C:

• Turn the key in the ignition lock to posi­
tion 2 (see page 35) -the glow plug warning
lamp comes on It goes out when the igni­
tion temperature is reached (see page 47). While the glow plugs are working do not switch on any other heavy cur­rent consumers because this would place an unnecessary load on the battery.
• When the warning lamp goes out, start
the engine immediately
If the engine does not start, repeat
preglow and try starting it again as described. If the
engine still does not start the fuse for the glow plugs may have blown -see page 120.
Starting a warm engine
The glow plug lamp does not come on -the
engine can be started straight away
When engine has been running fast for a long time, let it idle for about 2 minutes so that it can cool down slightly before being switched off.
Attention After the engine has been stopped the fan can continue running for a while (up to about 10 minutes) with the ignition switched off. It can also start to run again suddenly after a short time if -the coolant temperature in­creases due to heat build-up
-when engine is hot and the en­gine compartment is heated additionally by strong sun­light.
Special care must therefore be taken when working in the en­gine compartment.
On vehicles with a catalytic con­verter, the ignition must not be switched off as long as the vehicle is rolling with a gear engaged, other­wise, unburnt fuel can pass into the catalytic converter and cause dam­age.

Warning lamps
Attention • Be careful when opening the coolant expansion tank! When the engine is hot the cooling sys­tem is under pressure -Danger of scalding! Let engine cool down therefore before unscrewing the cap_
• Do not touch the fan. The fan can switch on suddenly -even when ignition is switched off.
For furthe r details see pages 98 and 98.

Operating instructions
• Ensure that the sensor betvveen the
windscreen defrost outlets in the centre of
the instrument panel and the air grille next
to the radio is not covered.
• If, after switching on the ignition,
all sym­
bols in the display area flash for about 15
seconds, there is a fault in the system -con­
tact a Volkswagen dealer.
Notes for both air conditioning
systems
• To ensure that the heating, ventilation
and air conditioner can work properly, the air
inlet in front of the windscreen should be
kept free of ice, snow and leaves.
• The heat output depends
on the coolant
temperature -the full heat output is there­
fore available when the engine IS warm.
• The stale air escapes through openings
in the luggage compartment side panels.
Therefore when loading the luggage com­
partment ensure that the openings are not
covered .
• When the ambient temperature
is high
and the air very humid, condensed water can drip off the evaporator and form a
puddle under the vehicle. This is quite nor­
mal and does not indicate a leak.
Notes for the normal air condi­
tioner
• All controls except the rotar y switch A and buttons 0 and E can be set to any inter­
mediate position.
•
To prevent the windows from misting up
the blower should be running slowly when driving at low speeds.
Using air conditioners economi­
cally
In cooling operation the air conditioner com­
pressor places demands on the engine and
therefo re influences the fuel consumption.
To keep the period switched on as short as possible, the following points should be
noted:
• If the
in side temperature is very high
after the car has been parked in the sun, it is recommended to open doors or windows briefly to enable the hot air to escape
• The air conditioner should not be
switched on during a Journey if the
windows or sliding/tilting roof* are open.
• If the desired interior temperature
can be attained w ithout switching on the air
cond itioner the fresh air operation should
be selected (does not apply to Climatronicl.
Operating faults
• Should the air cond i:ioner not work at
any time, either .
- the ambient temperatu re IS below about +5 °C,
-or the fuse has blown.

Check fuse and if necessary r
enew it - see

page 119. If the troub le is n ot due to a defec­

tive fuse, SWitch the system off and have It
checked.

- the air conditioner
has svvitched off due

to coolant temperature being too high -see
page 45.
• If the cooling output drops off, switch
the AlC
off and have the system checked.

Fuses
The individual current circuits are protected

b y fuses .

T he panel w ith
the relays and fuses is in the
front footwell behind a cover.

I t
is advisable to always carry a few spare

fuses on the vehicle . These can be obtained

f rom any Volkswagen dealer.

Changing a fuse
• Switch off the component concerned.
• Remove cover. To do this press both but­
tons in, pull front of cover down in direction
of arrow and take off.
•
With the aid of the list of fuses (see next
page). determine w hich fuse belongs to the component that has failed. •
Pull out the fuse concerned.
• Replace
blown fuse -can be recognised
by the burnt metal strip -w ith a fuse of same amperage .
• Insert the four lugs on
the rear of the cover into the trim and fold upwards until it
engages securely.
Notes
• If the newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time, the electrical system must be checked by a Volkswagen dealer as soon as possible.
• On no account should fuses be patched up because this can cause serious damage elsewhere in the electrical system.
• Some of the components listed are only
found on certain models or are optional ex­
tras.
