Changing the wiper blade f or the rear
window.
The factory-fitted windscreen wiper blades
are coated with graphite. The graphite coat-
ing ensures that the wiper blade moves qui-
etly over the window. If the graphite coating
is damaged, the wiper will become louder.
Check the condition of the wiper blades on
a regular basis. Rubbing wiper blades should
be changed if damaged or cleaned if dirty

x
Do not use fuel, nail v arnish remover, paint
thinner or similar products to clean the
windows. Wax deposits on the windscreen and
rear window could cause the wiper
blades to rub. Remo

ve wax residue using
a special cleaning product or cleaning cloths. Exterior lighting
Introduction to the topic
Bef

ore changing a bulb, check whether a bulb
or LED light unit has failed. You can normally
change bulbs yourself. If the exterior lighting
is realised using LED technology, depending
on model and vehicle equipment, it is not
possible for you to change the LED light units
or individual LEDs yourself. If individual LEDs
fail, this may be an indication that more LEDs
are on the point of failure. In this case, have
the LED light units checked and renewed if
necessary at a qualified workshop.
It may be illegal to drive with faulty exterior
lights.
Additional bulb specifications
Some bulbs might have factory specifications
that differ from standard bulbs. The designa-
tion is inscribed on the bulb, either on the
glass part or on the base. WARNING
Changing bulbs incorrectly can cause acci-
dents and serious injuries.

8. Check to see if a fuse has visibly blown

signed differently depending on the vehicle
equipment le vel and because several electri-
cal consumers may use a single fuse. You can
obtain further information about the fuse as-
signment from a Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers can share a sin-
gle fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could
have more than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced
when the cause of the fault has been recti-
fied. If a new fuse blows again shortly after
fitting, have the electrical system checked by
a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Fuses for emergency services (high-voltage
system)
High-voltage system fuses in the fuse box
under the steering wheel, behind the stow-
age compartment (left-hand drive) or behind
a cover in the glove box (right-hand drive)
and behind a cover on the right side of the
luggage compartment are identified with
a tag to enable emergency services to de-en-
ergise the vehicle as quickly as possible. Nev-
er attempt to replace these fuses or swap
them with other fuses in other slots

Fuses in the bonnet space
Please refer to and at the start of
