WARNING
The volume may suddenly get louder change when you switch media source or connect a new audio source.
x Always lower the volume before switching media source or connecting a new audio source.
WARNING
A mobile phone on the seat, instrument panel or in other places can be thrown around the inside of the vehicle during a sudden braking maneuver, a crash or other accident and injure vehicle occupants.
x Never attach a mobile phone to, or place it on, a door, the windshield, or above or near the areas marked “AIRBAG” on the steering wheel, the instrument panel, and the seat backrests, or between these areas and the vehicle occupants. The mobile phone could cause serious injury in an accident, especially when the airbags inflate.
WARNING
Always switch off the mobile phone when refueling and in areas with a risk of explosion. The electromagnetic radiation can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and cause a fire.
x The mobile phone can automatically log itself into the mobile phone network again when the Bluetooth® connection to the telephone control is interrupted.
WARNING
If a mobile phone not connected to an external aerial is used in the vehicle, electromagnetic radiation in the interior could exceed limit values. This also applies if the outside antenna is not installed properly.
x Heart specialists advise that mobile phones can adversely affect the way pacemakers work. Always keep the mobile phone and its integrated antenna at least 8 inches (20 cm) away from a pacemaker.
x Never carry a mobile phone that is switched on in the breast pocket directly over a pace-maker.
x If you suspect there may be interference with a pacemaker or other medical device, switch the mobile phone off immediately.
NOTICE
x Your mobile phone and the telephone control must always be switched off in areas where special regulations apply and when the use of mobile phones is forbidden. Radiation from a switched-on mobile phone can interfere with sensitive technical and medical devices, poten-tially causing malfunctions or damage to the devices.
x High speeds, poor weather and road conditions as well as the network quality may impair telephone calls in the vehicle and lead to loss of connection.

If you happen to press the starter button while trying to lock the steering lock while the ignition is still on, a chime will sound when the driver door is opened. At the same time, a message appears in the instrument cluster display informing you that the ignition is still active.
Switching the ignition on and off
x Push the starter button once to switch on the ignition without depressing the brake pedal ⇒ .
x Push the starter button again to switch off the ignition.
When the ignition is switched on, a chime will sound when the driver door is opened. At the same time, a message appears in the instrument cluster display informing you that the ignition is still active.
Starting and stopping the engine
x Depress the brake pedal.
x Push the starter button to start the engine.
x Push the starter button again to stop the engine.
WARNING
Unintended vehicle movement can cause serious personal injury.
x Do not depress the brake pedal when switching on the ignition, as the engine could oth-erwise start immediately.
WARNING
Improper use of vehicle keys can result in serious personal injury.
x Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle. Children or unauthorized per-sons may use it to lock the vehicle, start the engine, and operate vehicle systems such as the power windows, leading to serious personal injury.
x Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot help themselves in the vehicle. The doors can be locked using the remote control vehicle key. This could result in people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. For example, depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
x Heat build-up in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are much higher than the outside temperatures, particularly in summer. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particularly to small children.
In vehicles with a diesel engine and Keyless Access, the engine start may be delayed if the engine has to be preheated.
If the ignition is switched on or the engine is running and the driver door is opened, a chime sounds. The chime is also a reminder to switch off the engine and turn off the ignition before leaving and locking the vehicle from the outside.
Starting the engine

Brake system malfunction
If you brake and find that vehicle doesn't brake nearly as well as it used to (sudden increase in stop-ping distance), a brake circuit may have failed. The brake warning light "2!+% or H will come on and a message may appear in the instrument cluster display. If you believe the vehicle is safe to drive, immediately take it to the nearest authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for repair. Drive slowly and very carefully, allow for the longer stopping distance, and be ready to push longer and harder on the brake pedal to slow the vehicle down.
Brake booster
The brake booster works only when the engine is running. It increases the force on the brakes above and beyond the pressure put on the brake pedal by the driver.
If the brake booster is not working, or if the vehicle has to be towed, you will have to push the brake pedal harder to make up for the lack of booster assistance and the resulting longer stopping distance
⇒ .
WARNING
New brake pads do not provide maximum braking performance.
x New brake pads do not have the best stopping power for the first 200 miles (320 km) and must be “broken in.” You can compensate for the slightly reduced braking force by putting more pressure on the brake pedal.
x Drive with extra care while the new brake pads are being broken in. This reduces the risk of collisions and serious personal injuries due to a loss of control over the vehicle.
x Never follow other vehicles too closely or put yourself into other situations that might require sudden, hard braking, especially when the brake pads have not been broken in.
WARNING
Overheated brakes will reduce the vehicle's stopping power and increase stopping distances considerably.
x When driving downhill, the brakes have to work especially hard and heat up quickly.
x Before driving downhill, especially on hills that are long or steep, always reduce speed and shift into lower gear (manual or automatic transmission). This will let the vehicle use engine braking and reduce the load on the brakes. Otherwise, the brake system could over-heat and possibly fail. Only use the brakes when you need them to slow the vehicle down more or to stop.
x A damaged front spoiler or a non-standard spoiler can reduce airflow to the brakes and make them overheat.
WARNING
Wet brakes or brakes coated with ice or road salt react slower and need longer stopping dis-tances.
x Carefully apply the brakes to test them.
x Always dry brakes and clean off ice and salt coatings with a few cautious brake applica-tions when visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions permit.

WARNING
Brake fluid is poisonous.
x To reduce the risk of poisoning, never use food, beverage or other non-original containers to store brake fluid. Someone might be misled by the original label on the container, or by the shape of the container, and drink the brake fluid. This could occur even if you relabel the container as “brake fluid.”
x Only store brake fluid in the closed, original container and keep it out of the reach of chil-dren.
NOTICE
Brake fluid will damage vehicle paint, plastic parts and tires. Wipe any brake fluid off vehicle paint and other vehicle parts immediately.
Brake fluid can pollute the environment. Brake fluid that has leaked out must be collected and disposed of properly, following all applicable environmental regulations.
