The wipers do not wipe.
The indicator lamp lights up yellow.
Switch the ignition off and on.
If the problem persists, go to a qualified workshop.
Changes in the activation behaviour of the rain/light sensor
Possible causes for faults and misinterpretations relating to the sensitive surface of the rain/light
sensor
Damaged wiper blades: a film of water or smears caused by damaged wiper blades can increase the
time the wipers are switched on, can shorten the length of the intervals between wipes or cause the
wipers to run quickly and continuously.
Insects: insects hitting the windscreen can cause the wipers to be activated.
Salt deposits: in winter, salt deposits can cause the wipers to continue to wipe the windscreen when
it is almost dry.
Dirt: dry dust, wax, windscreen coatings (lotus effect), or detergent deposits (from an automatic car
wash) can cause the rain/light sensor to become less sensitive and react too slowly, or prevent it
from reacting at all. Clean the sensitive surface of the rain/light sensor Caring for and cleaning the
vehicle exteriorat regular intervals and inspect the wiper blades for damage.
Crack in the windscreen: a wipe cycle will be triggered if the rain/light sensor is on when the
windscreen is impacted by a stone. The rain/light sensor will then register the impairment of the
sensitive surfaces and adjust accordingly. Depending on the size of the stone impact, the activation
behaviour of the rain/light sensor may be changed.
We recommend that you use an alcohol-based glass cleaner to remove wax and polish.

The wipers will try to wipe away any obstacles that are on the window. The wiper will stop moving if
the obstacle continues to block its path. Remove the obstacle and switch the wiper back on again.
Mirrors
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
Interior mirror
Exterior mirrors
You can use the exterior mirrors and the interior mirror to observe traffic behind you and adjust
your driving style accordingly.

WARNING
Stale air can quickly make the driver tired and affect their concentration, which in turn can cause
collisions, accidents and serious injuries.
Never switch off the blower or switch on the air recirculation mode for an extended period as this
prevents fresh air from entering the vehicle interior.

NOTICE
Food, medicine and other items that are sensitive to heat or cold could be either damaged or
rendered useless by the air flowing out of the vents.

Auxiliary heater and ventilation
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
Switching the auxiliary heater and ventilation on and off
Programming the auxiliary heater and ventilation
Remote control
The auxiliary heater and ventilation system can be used to heat the vehicle interior in the winter and
ventilate it in the summer. It is able to clear ice, condensation and a thin layer of snow from the
windscreen. The auxiliary heater is supplied with fuel from the vehicle fuel tank and can be operated
when the vehicle is stationary with the ignition switched off. The auxiliary ventilation system is
powered by the 12-volt vehicle battery.
Auxiliary heater exhaust system
The emissions generated by the auxiliary heater are discharged via an exhaust pipe underneath the
vehicle. The exhaust pipe must not be blocked by snow, mud or other objects.

WARNING
Among other things, the emissions from the auxiliary heater contain carbon monoxide, which is an
odourless and colourless poisonous gas. Carbon monoxide can cause people to lose consciousness. It
can also cause death.
Never switch on the auxiliary heater when the vehicle is in unventilated or closed rooms nor let the
auxiliary heater run in unventilated or closed rooms.
Never program the auxiliary heater so that it is switched on and runs in unventilated or closed
rooms.

WARNING
Parts of the auxiliary heater exhaust system become very hot. This can cause fires.
Park the vehicle so that no part of the exhaust system can come into contact with any inflammable
material underneath the vehicle, e.g. dry grass.

Food, medicine and other items that are sensitive to heat or cold could be either damaged or
rendered useless by the air flowing out of the vents.
Never leave food, medicines or other temperature-sensitive objects in front of the vents.
Switching the auxiliary heater and ventilation on and off
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
The auxiliary heater can be operated only when the ignition is switched off. If the ignition is switched
on while the auxiliary heater is working, the auxiliary heater continues to run to provide additional
heat.
Switching on the auxiliary heater
Press the immediate heat button in the air conditioning block Front controls
OR: press the button on the remote control Remote control
OR: program the departure time Programming the auxiliary heater and ventilation
The auxiliary heater heats the vehicle interior to at least 22
The auxiliary heater will not switch on if the 12-volt vehicle battery is low or the fuel tank is empty.
Switching off the auxiliary heater manually
Press the immediate heat button in the air conditioning block Front controls
OR: press the button on the remote control Remote control
OR: touch the function button on the Infotainment system Programming the auxiliary heater
Auxiliary heater switches off automatically
When the programmed departure time is reached, or after the programmed operating period has
elapsed Programming the auxiliary heater and ventilation
When the indicator lamp lights up (fuel gauge) Fuel gauge
If the charge level of the 12-volt vehicle battery is too low 12-volt vehicle battery
The auxiliary heater runs on for a short time after it has been switched off manually or automatically
so that the remaining fuel in the system can be burnt off.

When the vehicle is at a standstill, the auxiliary heater can be activated up to three times in
succession for the maximum operating duration.

If the front brake pads are checked, the rear brake pads should be checked at the same time. A
visual check of the thickness of all brake pads should be carried out regularly by checking the brake
pads through the openings in the rims or from the underside of the vehicle. If necessary, remove the
wheels to carry out a comprehensive check. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen
dealership for this purpose.
Driving a loaded vehicle
For good vehicle handling when driving a loaded vehicle, please observe the following:
Stow all items of luggage securely Stowing luggage and loads
Accelerate particularly cautiously and carefully.
Avoid sudden braking and driving manoeuvres.
Brake earlier than in normal driving.
If applicable, observe the information concerning the roof carrier Roof carrier


WARNING
Moving loads can severely impair the vehicle's stability and driving safety which could cause
accidents and serious injuries.
Secure items properly so they cannot slide about.
Use suitable lashing or securing straps when securing heavy objects.
Securely engage the rear seat backrests.
Driving with an open boot lid
Driving with an open boot lid is particularly dangerous. All objects and the open boot lid must be
secured properly. Take the appropriate measures to reduce the amount of poisonous exhaust fumes
that could enter into the vehicle.

WARNING
