With the engine at operating temperature, park the vehicle on a level surface to ensure that the
engine oil reading is correct.

Switch off the engine and wait a few minutes for the engine oil to flow back into the sump.

Open the bonnet In the engine compartment.

Identify the engine oil filler cap and oil dipstick. The engine oil filler opening can be recognised by
the symbol on the cap and the oil dipstick has a coloured handle. If you cannot find the cap and
dipstick, please contact a qualified workshop.

Pull the dipstick out of the guide tube and wipe it off with a clean cloth.

Insert the oil dipstick into the guide tube again as far as it will go. If there is a marking on the upper
end of the oil dipstick, this marking must fit into the corresponding groove at the top end of the
guide tube upon insertion.

Various indicator lamps may light up after the 12-volt vehicle battery has been connected and the
ignition is switched on. They will go out when you drive a short distance at a speed of approximately
15 – 20 km/h (10 – 12 mph). If the indicator lamps remain lit up, the vehicle should be checked by a
qualified workshop.
If the 12-volt vehicle battery was disconnected for an extended period, the system may not able to
calculate or correctly display the time when the next service is due ⇒ Instrument cluster . Observe

Automatic switch-off for electrical consumers
The intelligent vehicle electrical system management function automatically implements a range of
measures to prevent the 12-volt vehicle battery from discharging under high loads:


power supply to the 12-volt socket and the cigarette lighter may be interrupted temporarily
while the engine is being started.
The vehicle electrics management system cannot always prevent the 12-volt vehicle battery from
being discharged, for example if the ignition is left on over a long period with the engine off or the
side lights or parking lights are left on over a long period of time.

Tyre monitoring system
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Tyre Pressure Loss Indicator 
⇒ Troubleshooting for Tyre Pressure Loss Indicator 
The tyre monitoring system warns the driver when the tyre pressures are too low.
The tyre monitoring system monitors various parameters (for example, rolling circumference) of all
wheels using ABS sensors (indirect measurement).

WARNING
The intelligent tyre monitoring system technology cannot overcome the laws of physics, and
functions only within the limits of the system. Incorrect handling of the wheels and tyres can lead to
a sudden loss of pressure in the tyres, tread separation and even tyre blow-out.

The Tyre Pressure Loss Indicator may react with a delay or not display anything at all in the event
of a sporty driving style, when driving on snow-covered or icy roads or unpaved roads or when
driving with snow chains.

The service events differ according to oil change service and inspection. The service interval display
in the display of the instrument cluster serves as a reminder for the due date of the next service
event.
Your vehicle will receive either the fixed service or flexible service for the oil change service,
depending on the vehicle equipment, the engine type and the operating conditions.

QI6 Flexible According to service interval display.
Inspection According to service interval display.
Observe the information on engine oil specifications according to VW standards ⇒ Engine oil .
Features of the flexible service
With the flexible service, you only need to have an oil change service carried out if your vehicle
requires one. Individual operating conditions and personal driving style are taken into account in
order to determine this point in time. An important part of the flexible service is the use of LongLife
engine oil instead of conventional oil.
Observe the information on engine oil specifications according to VW standards ⇒ Engine oil .
If you do not wish to have the flexible service, you can opt for the fixed service instead. However, a
fixed service can affect your service costs. Your service advisor will be pleased to help.
Service interval display
Scheduled services at Volkswagen are displayed in the service interval display in the instrument
cluster ⇒ Service interval display  or in the Vehicle settings menu in the Infotainment system
⇒ Vehicle settings menu . This service interval display provides information on services that include
an oil change or inspection. When an individual service is due, additional work that is due can also be
carried out, e.g. changing brake fluid and spark plugs.
