engine VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2022 Owners Manual

Check to see if a fuse has blown Changing fuses.
Follow the instructions to change the affected bulb . Always use identical bulbs with the
same designation. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on
the base.
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with unprotected fingers. The heat of the bulb would
cause the fingerprint to evaporate and condense on the reflector. This will impair the
brightness of the headlight.
After changing the bulb, check to ensure that the bulb is working properly. If the bulb is not
working properly, the bulb may not have been inserted properly or may have failed again,
or the connector may have been inserted incorrectly.
Any time you change a bulb in the front of the vehicle, the headlight settings should be
checked by a qualified workshop.

⇒ Fuse table for fuses in the dash panel
⇒ Fuse tables for fuses in the engine compartment
⇒ Changing a blown fuse
At the time of print we are unable to provide an complete overview of the locations of the fuses for
the electrical consumers. This is because the vehicle is under constant development, because
fuses are assigned differently depending on the vehicle equipment level and because several
consumers may use a single fuse. You can get more information about the fuse layout from a
Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers could share a single fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could have
more than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced when the cause of the fault has been rectified. If a new
fuse blows shortly after insertion, have the electrical system checked by a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.

•Push the retaining lugs ⇒ Fig. 208① upwards in the direction of the arrow whilst opening the
stowage compartment until the fuse carrier can be accessed.
•To install, press the stowage compartment into the mounts on the dash panel until it audibly
clicks into place on both sides and then close the compartment.

Using the jump leads incorrectly or completing the jump start procedure incorrectly can
cause the 12-volt vehicle battery to explode, which can lead to severe injuries. Please
observe the following in order to reduce the risk of the 12-volt vehicle battery exploding:
•All work on the 12-volt vehicle battery and the electrical system can cause serious
chemical burns, fire or electric shocks. Always read the warnings and safety
information before carrying out any kind of work on the 12-volt vehicle battery ⇒ 12-
volt vehicle battery.
•The vehicle battery providing assistance must have the same voltage as the flat vehicle
battery (12 voltsyfDQGDSSUR[LPDWHO\WKHVDPHFDSDFLW\VHHODEHORQEDWWHU\\f.
•Never charge a 12-volt vehicle battery that is frozen or that has thawed. Discharged 12-
volt vehicle batteries can already freeze at temperatures of around 0°C (+32°Fyf.
•The 12-volt vehicle battery should be replaced if it is frozen or has thawed.
•A highly explosive mixture of gases is given off when the 12-volt vehicle battery is
jump started. Always keep fire, sparks, naked flames and lit cigarettes away from the
12-volt vehicle battery. Never use a mobile telephone when the jump leads are being
connected or disconnected.
•Position the jump leads so that they never come into contact with any moving parts in
the engine compartment.
•Never confuse the negative and positive terminals or connect the jump leads
incorrectly.
•Observe the jump lead manufacturer's instructions.
WARNING
Please note the following in order to avoid considerable damage to the vehicle electrical
system:
•A short circuit can be caused if the jump leads are wrongly connected.
•The vehicles must not touch each other, as any contact could mean that electricity
could flow as soon as the positive terminals are connected.
