Do not slip the clutch or rest your foot on the clutch when driving offroad. When travelling over
uneven ground, you could press the clutch by mistake and lose control of the vehicle. This also
prevents power being transferred between the engine and the gearbox. In addition, driving with the
clutch partially engaged causes premature wear to the clutch lining.
Useful accessories for offroad driving
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
The checklist contains just a few items of equipment that can be very useful for offroad driving. If
you have an instruction manual or fitting instructions for these accessories, you should always take
them with you and observe them as necessary when driving offroad.
Checklist
Useful items when driving offroad:
Water, compass, maps and torch with spare batteries.
Winch, tow bar or rope with sufficient strength.
Mobile telephone, shovel, blankets and rubber boots.
Electrical air compressor for connection to the 12-volt sockets in the vehicle to inflate the tyres.
A wooden board approx. 4 cm thick and approx. 1 metre long or an aluminium frame of similar size:
this can be used to free a vehicle stuck in the mud and provide a platform for a vehicle jack.
Snow chains, additional spare wheels, a breakdown set, jack and box spanner.
Changing gear correctly
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
The correct choice of gear depends on the offroad terrain.
Before attempting to drive through difficult terrain it can be helpful to stop and consider which gear
you should select. After several trips offroad, you will learn which gear to select in conjunction with
the step-down ratio and differential locks for different types of terrain.

Accessories, modifications, repairs and renewal of parts
Accessories and replacement parts
Volkswagen recommends that you seek advice from a Volkswagen dealership before purchasing
accessories, replacement parts or servicing materials, e.g. if the vehicle is to be retrofitted with
accessories or if parts need to be replaced. Volkswagen dealerships can recommend accessories,
replacement parts and service fluids suitable for your requirements. They can also provide
information regarding official regulations.
Volkswagen recommends that you use only approved Volkswagen accessories and Volkswagen
Genuine Parts®. These parts and accessories have been specially tested by Volkswagen for
suitability, reliability and safety. Volkswagen dealerships are also qualified to install them correctly.
Although the market is constantly scrutinised, Volkswagen cannot assume responsibility for the
reliability, safety and suitability of products Volkswagen has not approved. Volkswagen can
therefore assume no responsibility for these parts even if they have been approved by an official
testing agency or are covered by an official approval certificate.
Any retrofitted equipment which has a direct effect on the control of the vehicle must be approved
by Volkswagen for use in your vehicle and bear the e mark (the European Union's approval symbol).
These devices include cruise control systems or an electronically controlled suspension.
Any additional electrical components fitted that do not serve to control the vehicle itself must bear
the mark (manufacturer conformity declaration in the European Union). Such devices include
refrigerator boxes, computers and ventilator fans.
WARNING
Incorrectly performed repairs or modifications to your vehicle can impair the effectiveness of the
airbags and cause malfunctions, accidents and fatal injury.
re or position objects, e.g. telephone holders, in the deployment zone of the airbags
since these objects can cause serious or fatal injuries if the airbags are triggered.
Repairs and technical modifications
Repairs and technical modifications must always be carried out according to Volkswagen
specifications⇒ .
Unauthorised modifications to the electronic components or software in the vehicle may cause
malfunctions. As the electronic components are linked together in networks, these faults may
indirectly affect the operation of other systems. This can seriously impair safety, lead to excessive
wear of components, and also invalidate the type approval for the vehicle.

Electromagnetic radiation
If a mobile phone or two-way radio is used without being connected to the external aerial, the
electromagnetic radiation will not be optimally directed to the outside of the vehicle. Increased
levels of radiation in the vehicle interior can occur in particular in the event of poor reception, e.g. in
rural areas. This can pose a health risk ⇒ .
With some equipment levels, a suitable mobile phone interface may be used to connect the mobile
telephone to the external aerial ⇒BookletInfotainment system,. The connection quality is improved
and the range is increased.
Using the telephone
Many countries require a hands-free system to be used when using a telephone inside the vehicle,
e.g. via a Bluetooth ® connection. Secure the mobile telephone to a suitable holder before using it ⇒
  or stow it securely away in one of the stowage compartments provided, e.g. in the centre
console.
Use a compatible mobile phone if the mobile phone interface uses SIM Access Profile (rSAP)
technology. If the LTE mobile standard is supported, use a SIM card with LTE data option.
Radio communication
Observe any legal requirements and the manufacturer's owner's manual when using radio
communication devices. Two-way radios must be approved if they are to be retrofitted in the
vehicle.
Contact your Volkswagen dealership for further information on installing a two-way radio.
WARNING
Mobile telephones which are loosely placed in the vehicle or not properly secured could be flung
through the interior and cause injuries during a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre, or in the
event of an accident.
them safely.
WARNING
If mobile telephones or two-way radios that are not connected to an external aerial are used,
electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle could exceed limit values and thus be a health hazard for
drivers and other vehicle occupants. This also applies to external aerials which have not been
correctly installed.
