•Use the on/off switch ⇒ Fig. 249⑤ to switch on the air compressor.
•Run the air compressor until the tyre pressure has reached 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi /
200 – 250 kPa) ⇒. The maximum running time is eight minutes⇒.
•Switch off the air compressor.
•If a pressure level of 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi / 200 – 250 kPa) cannot be achieved, unscrew
the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.
•Drive (or reverse) the vehicle approximately ten metres so that the sealing compound is more
evenly distributed in the tyre.
•Screw the tyre filler hose for the air compressor firmly back onto the tyre valve and inflate the
tyre again.
•If the required pressure still cannot be reached, the tyre is too badly damaged. The tyre cannot
be sealed with the breakdown set. Do not drive on. Seek expert assistance ⇒.
•Disconnect the air compressor and unscrew the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.
•Drive the vehicle no faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) if a tyre pressure of 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi
/ 200 – 250 kPa) has been reached.
•Check the tyre pressure after driving for ten minutes⇒ Test after driving for 10 minutes.
Test after driving for 10 minutes
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction

Service work and digital service schedule
The vehicle data attached to the inside cover of this owner's manual help ensure that you can
have the correct Volkswagen Genuine Parts installed in your vehicle whenever required. The data
also determine which type of service applies to your vehicle.
The tyre filler hose and the air compressor can get hot during inflation.
•Protect your hands and skin from the hot components.
•Do not place the hot tyre filler hose or the hot air compressor on any inflammable
materials.
•Allow the device to cool down fully before stowing.
•If the tyre will not inflate to at least 2.0 bar (29 psi / 200 kPa), the tyre is too damaged.
The sealant is unable to seal the tyre. Do not drive on. Seek expert assistance.
WARNING
Switch the air compressor off after a maximum of 8 minutes to avoid overheating. Let the
air compressor cool down for a few minutes before switching it back on.
NOTICE
Driving with an unsealed tyre is dangerous as it can cause accidents and serious injuries.
•Do not carry on driving if the tyre pressure is 1.3 bar (19 psi / 130 kPa) or lower.
•Seek expert assistance.
WARNING
®

The vehicle data sticker confirms when the vehicle was first registered or delivered, when the
delivery inspection was carried out, and thus the date from which your vehicle is covered by our
warranty.
Saving the service operations performed (digital service schedule)
Each service record is stored by your Volkswagen dealership and qualified workshop in a central
system. This transparent documentation of the service history allows the service operations
performed to be reproduced at any time. Each time you have your vehicle serviced, Volkswagen
recommends asking for a printed service record, which contains all service work stored in the
system.
With every service, the printout of the previous service record is replaced by a current printout.
The digital service schedule is not available in some markets. In this case, your Volkswagen
dealership will inform you about the documentation process for service work.
Service work
The following information is documented in the digital service schedule by your Volkswagen
dealership or qualified workshop:
•When which service was carried out.
•Whether any repairs are recommended, such as replacement of the brake pads in the near
future.
•Whether you had any special requests before or during the maintenance work (your service
advisor will note these on the order).
•Which components or service fluids were changed.
•When your next service is scheduled for.
The LongLife mobility guarantee is valid until the next inspection is due. Documentation takes place
at every due inspection.
The type and scope of service work may differ from vehicle to vehicle. Information on specific work
for your vehicle can be requested from a qualified workshop.
Regular servicing of your vehicle not only maintains its value, it also ensures that your
vehicle remains roadworthy and in working order. You should therefore have your vehicle serviced
according to the Volkswagen guidelines.
Fixed service or flexible service
Fig. 250 Vehicle data sticker with PR number for the relevant service.
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.
How do I know which type of service my vehicle needs?
Inadequate servicing, no servicing at all, or failure to adhere to service intervals can result
in breakdowns, accidents and serious injury.
•Have your service work carried out by an authorised Volkswagen dealership or
workshop.
WARNING
Volkswagen is not responsible for any vehicle damage caused by inadequate service work
or the lack of part availability.

every new vehicle which applies from the time of delivery until the first due inspection. If you
purchase your new vehicle directly from Volkswagen AG, Volkswagen AG will issue the LongLife
mobility guarantee from the time of delivery until the first due inspection.

inspection when the due inspection is carried out at that workshop. The service costs include the
entire guarantee package.
The comprehensive LongLife mobility guarantee includes the following services:
If your vehicle can no longer be driven due to a technical defect, corresponding assistance will be

Your entitlement to the LongLife mobility guarantee is documented in the digital service schedule
each time your car is serviced. A full service history shows that your car has been professionally
maintained and cared for.

own power.
