Washing the vehicle with a high-pressure cleaner
I""""'T'n First read and observe the Introductory L.-lo:oJ.I information and safety warnings & on page 380.
Follow the instructions provided by the manufactur-er when cleaning your vehicle using a high-pres-sure cleaner. This applies in particular to the pres-sure and the spraying distance=>&.
Maintain sufficient distance to soft materials such as rubber hoses, insulation, and the ParkPilot sen-sors. The ParkPilot sensors are located in the front bumper, and in some cases also in the rear bump-er => Never use concentrated jet nozzles or dirt blast-ers=>&.
A WARNING
The incorrect use of a high-pressure cleaner can cause visible and invisible long-term damage to tyres and other materials. This can cause accidents and serious injuries.
• Maintain sufficient distance between the washer jet and the tyres.
• Never clean the tyres with concentrated jet nozzles (dirt blasters). The tyres may incur visible and invisible damage even if cleaned briefly with the spray at a distance.
A WARNING
After the car has been washed, the braking effect could set in later than normal and ex-tend the braking distance as the brake discs and brake pads will be wet, or iced up in win-ter.
• You can "dry and de-ice" the brakes by performing careful braking manoeuvres. Make sure that you do not endanger any oth-er road users or violate any legal regulations when doing so.
CD
• The water may be no warmer than +so·c (+140.FJ.
• Do not wash the vehicle In direct sunlight In order to avoid damage to the vehicle palntwork.
• The ParkPilot sensors In the bumpers must be kept clean and free of Ice. When cleaning with pressure hoses or steam cleaners, the sensors should only be sprayed briefly and the steam/hose nozzle must be kept more than 10 cm away.
• Do not clean windows that are iced over or covered In snow with a high-pressure cleaner.
• Washing the vehicle in cold weather: If the vehicle is rinsed with a hose, do not direct the water Into the lock cylinders or the gaps round the doors, boot, or bonnet. The locks and seals could freeze. Cleaning windows and exterior mirrors

You can use the breakdown set (tyre mobility set) to safely seal any tyre damage caused by foreign bodies or punctures (up to 4 mm (0.16 Inches) in diameter). Do not remove foreign objects (e.g. screws or nails) from the tyrel
Once the sealant has been added to the tyre, the tyre pressure must be checked again after approxi-mately 10 minutes of driving.
,A WARNING
Incorrect torque or incorrect use of wheel bolts can lead to a loss of control of the vehi-cle, cause accidents and serious Injuries.
• Always keep all wheel bolts and threads In the wheel hubs clean and free from oil and grease. The wheel bolts must be easy to turn and be tightened to the specified torque.
• The hexagonal socket In the screwdriver handle should only be used for turning wheel bolts, not use for loosening or tightening them. • The tightening torque of the wheel bolts should be checked immediately with a torque wrench opage 421.
• The damaged wheel should be replaced as soon as possible.
m In vehicles with a tyre monitoring system, the L!..J system may have to "re-learn" if new tyres are fitted 318. Seek expert assistance if more than one vehicle tyre is damaged. The breakdown set is only de-signed for filling one tyre.
Only use the breakdown set if the car is parked in a safe place, you are familiar with the required ac-tions and safety procedures, and you have access to the correct breakdown set. Seek expert assis-tance if this is not the case.
The tyre sealant must not be used:
• If the rim is damaged.
• If the outside temperature is below -2o•c (-4 ·F).
• If there are cuts or punctures in the tyre that are larger than 4 mm. .,.

Fuses
i:llJ Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Fuse box in the dash panel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 430
Fuses in the engine compartment . . . . . . . . . . 431 Changing a blown fuse ................... 431
At the time of print we are unable to provide an up-to-date overview of the locations of the fuses for the electrical consumers. This is because the vehi-cle 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 informa-tion about the fuse layout from a Volkswagen Com-mercial Vehicles 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.
A WARNING
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. Additional information and warnings:
• Drink holder =>page 153
• Preparation for working in the engine compart-ment =>page 350
• Battery =>page 362
A WARNING
High voltages in the electrical system can cause electric shocks, serious burns and death.
• Never touch the electrical wiring of the ig-nition system.
• Avoid causing short circuits in the electri-cal system.
A WARNING
Using unsuitable or repaired fuses and bridg-ing an electrical circuit without fuses can cause a fire and serious injuries.
