In vehicles with fixed oil change service, services take place at predefined service intervals.

-visibility waistcoat may be located in a stowage
compartment in the front door trim or in the stowage compartment on the front passenger side
Driver doorFr
The high-visibility waistcoat must comply with legal requirements.
Fire extinguisher
Depending on the equipment, a fire extinguisher may be located in a holder in the footwell under
the front passenger seat.
The fire extinguisher must meet legal requirements, be ready for use at all times and be checked on
a regular basis (see inspection seal on the fire extinguisher).

WARNING
In the event of a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre or accident, loose objects could be flung
though the vehicle and cause severe injuries.
Always secure the first-aid kit, warning triangle and fire extinguisher safely in the holders in the
vehicle.
Stow the high-visibility waistcoat in the stowage compartments so that it can be easily accessed.
Information call, breakdown call and emergency call service

Fig. 49 In the roof console: control for voice services.
With some equipment levels, a control may be installed in the roof console. Pressing the buttons ,
and Fig. 49enables you to access the following voice services: information call,
breakdown call and emergency call service.
The required connection is established by a factory-fitted control unit. A connection to a telephone
call centre will be established when you initiate one of the voice services.

The control is equipped with an indicator lamp Fig.

Off: all voice services are deactivated.
Flashing red for approx. 20 seconds after the ignition is switched on: at least one voice service is
disabled.

unauthorised persons could lock the doors and the boot lid, start the engine or switch on the
ignition and operate electrical equipment, such as the electric windows.

file Driving profile selection and 4MOTION Active Control
Avoid driving at full throttle
Never drive the vehicle at its top speed. The drag coefficient increases at excessively high speeds.
This in turn increases the force needed to move the vehicle.
Reduce idling
Pull away immediately with low engine speeds. If you are stopped for a long period, do not allow the
engine to idle but switch it off, e.g. when in a traffic jam or at a railway crossing.
In vehicles with an activated start/stop system, the engine can switch off automatically when the
vehicle is stopping and when the vehicle is stationary Start/stop system
Refuel moderately
A full fuel tank increases the weight of the vehicle. A fuel tank that is half or two thirds of the way
full is sufficient for journeys in urban traffic in particular.
Avoid short journeys
A cold engine has very high fuel consumption. The optimum operating temperature is reached only
after driving a few kilometres. The fuel consumption is above average at very low ambient
temperatures, e.g. in winter Fig. 97
Carry out regular maintenance
Regular maintenance is an essential prerequisite for economical driving and increases the service life
of the vehicle.
Observe the tyre pressures
Low tyre pressures does not just mean greater wear, but also increase the rolling resistance of the
tyres and thus the fuel consumption. Use optimised rolling resistance tyres.
Adjust the tyre pressure according to the load. Observe the information on the tyre pressure sticker
Useful information about wheels and tyres
Tyre Pressure Loss Indicator or Tyre Pressure Monitoring System Tyre monitoring system
Use low viscosity engine oils
Fully synthetic engine oils with a low viscosity decrease frictional resistance in the engine and are
distributed better and more quickly, especially during cold starts.
Do not drive with unnecessary loads in the vehicle
You can reduce fuel consumption by clearing out the luggage compartment before setting off, for
example by removing empty drink crates or unused child seats.
To keep the vehicle's air resistance as low as possible, remove any add-on parts and equipment such
as ski racks, bicycle racks and roof carriers once you have finished using them.
Save electrical energy

instructions should be followed Safety
If the vehicle is going to be sold in another country or used in another country for an extended
period, the legal requirements applicable in that country must be observed.
In some cases, certain equipment will have to be fitted or removed and functions deactivated. The
scope of services and service types could also be affected. This is particularly important if the vehicle
is driven in another climate region for a long period of time.
Because different frequency bands are used in different countries, the factory-fitted Infotainment
system may not work in other countries.

NOTICE
Volkswagen is not responsible for any vehicle damage caused by low-quality fuel, inadequate
servicing work or non-availability of Genuine Parts.
Volkswagen cannot be held responsible if the vehicle does not comply with or only partly complies
with the relevant legal requirements in other countries and continents.
Troubleshooting
Unusual braking behaviour
The warning lamp lights up red.
A text message may also be displayed.
The vehicle does not brake in the usual way or the braking distance is longer than normal.
There is a malfunction in the brake system.
Go to the nearest qualified workshop without delay.
Drive at low speed and be prepared for longer braking distances and the need to apply increased
pedal pressure.
Brake pad wear indicator
The indicator lamp lights up yellow.
Front brake pads are worn.
Go to a qualified workshop immediately.
All brake pads should be checked and renewed as necessary.

wheels can spin even when brake support systems are active, and this can lead to a loss of control of
the vehicle.

WARNING
The effectiveness of ESC can be reduced considerably if other components and systems which affect
driving dynamics are not serviced properly or are not functioning properly. This also applies, but not
exclusively, to the brakes, tyres and other named systems.
Please always bear in mind that modifications and changes to the vehicle can affect the way brake
support systems operate.
Alterations to the suspension or the use of non-approved wheel and tyre combinations can affect
the function of brake support systems and reduce their effectiveness.
Suitable tyres support the effectiveness of ESC.

WARNING
Driving without the brake servo can considerably increase the braking distance and thus cause
accidents and serious injuries.
Never switch the engine or ignition off while the vehicle is in motion.
If the brake servo does not function or the vehicle is being towed, the brake pedal will have to be
depressed more forcefully as the braking distance will be increased due to the lack of assistance for
the brake system.
Switching the TCS on and off
Switch off the traction control system (TCS) if the vehicle does not have sufficient traction:
When driving in deep snow or on loose surfaces.
When rocking the vehicle free if it is stuck.
Then switch on TCS again.
Switching TCS on and off
TCS can be switched off and on in the Infotainment system Infotainment system controls and
displays
When the TCS is switched off, the yellow indicator lamp lights up on the instrument cluster
display.
As soon as the TCS starts regulating, the indicator lamp flashes yellow.
Troubleshooting

allow the engine to cool down.

Leaking or spilt engine oil can pollute the environment. Spilt service fluids must be collected and
then disposed of properly and in an environmentally responsible way.
Engine oil standards
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
If possible, use only Volkswagen-approved engine oil
flexible oil change service, use only approved flexible service engine oil that complies with the
corresponding VW standard.
Since the quality of fuels can vary greatly between individual markets, this must be taken into
account when selecting the correct engine oil.
The use of engine oils compliant with the VW 504 00, VW 507 00 and VW 508 00 specifications
requires a fuel quality compliant with EN 228 (petrol) and EN 590 (diesel), or fuel of an equivalent
quality. Engine oils compliant with VW 504 00, VW 507 00 and VW 508 00 are therefore unsuitable
for use in a large number of markets.
If the engine has been filled with engine oil in accordance with the standards W 502 00, VW 504 00
and VW 507 00, a sticker with the relevant information will be located on the lock carrier in the
engine compartment. Observe this information!
