Function and control
Fig. 253 In the stowage compartment on the front passenger side: button for the tyre monitoring sys-tem.
l"'"""f'n First read and observe the Introductory l.-J,.:,LL Information and safety warnings & on page 318.
The tyre monitoring system uses data from the ASS sensors and other functions to check the speed of rotation and the rolling circumference of the individual wheels. The rolling circumference of the wheels changes, if the tyre pressure is too low. This is then shown by the tyre monitoring sys-tem ill in the instrument cluster.
The operation of the tyre monitoring system is im-paired:
• If the tyre pressure has been changed manual-ly.
• If the tyre has structural damage.
• If the vehicle Is loaded more heavily on one side.
• If the wheels on one axle are loaded more heavily, e.g. high load level.
• If snow chains have been fitted.
• If one wheel per axle has been changed.
• When driving with a heavy trailer attached.
• If you are driving under winter conditions or on unsurfaced roads.
• When driving fast with hard acceleration and braking manoeuvres.
Synchronising the tyre monitoring system
The tyre monitoring system will have to be re-synchronised after changing the tyre pressure, or after changing one or more wheels. This also ap-plies for changing the wheels, e.g. from the front to the rear, and for changing from summer tyres to winter tyres.
The saved values must be reset before the system can be resynchronised.
• Switch on the ignition, and while the vehicle is stationary
• Press and hold the =>Fig. 253 button until an acoustic confirmation signal is emitted.
• OR: with some vehicle equipment options, you can open menu option Tyre pressure in the in-strument cluster display and save the new tyre pressures there =>page 24.
Once the saved values have been reset, the sys-tem calibrates itself independently to the fitted tyres and the tyre pressures filled by the driver dur-ing normal vehicle operation. The calibrated values are adopted and monitored after a long journey at various speeds.
If the wheels are loaded more heavily than normal, e.g. if the vehicle is carrying heavy payload, the tyre pressure must be raised to the recommended full-load tyre pressure before synchronisation =>page 367.
m The tyre monitoring system stops working if l!.J there is a fault in the ESC or ASS =>page 269.
m When using snow chains, an incorrect dis-l!.J play may be shown as the snow chains in-crease the tyre circumference =>page 367.

SCR catalysts can be used to reduce emissions from diesel engines (SCR = Selective Catalytic Re-duction). The SCR catalyst uses Ad Blue® urea sol-ution to convert nitrogen oxides into nitrogen and water.
If the vehicle is equipped with this kind of emission control system for diesel vehicles, the filler neck for the Ad Blue® tank is located below the filler cap for the fuel tank.
The Ad Blue® level should be checked within the scope of the service work Service schedule.
Information on AdBiue®
The Ad Blue® consumption figures depend on the individual driving style, the system's operating tem-perature and the ambient temperature that the ve-hicle is operated in.
The vehicle is fitted with a separate tank for Ad Bl-ue®. The Ad Blue® tank holds approximately 13 li-tres. For technical reasons, the capacity may be slightly larger when refilling using refill bottles.
The Ad Blue® tank must never run empty. As of a remaining distance of approximately 2,400 km. the instrument cluster display will indicate that the
346 While drivmg
Ad Blue® must be refilled 348. If the re-maining range is 0 km, the engine cannot be star-ted anymore 347.
The Ad Blue® trademark is held by the German As-sociation of the Automobile Industry (VDA) in the USA, Germany, the European Union and other countries.
Additional information and warnings:
• Fuel 343
• Accessories, modifications, repairs and renewal of parts 394
A WARNING
If the AdBiue® level is too low, the vehicle cannot be restarted after the Ignition has been switched off. Starting with jump leads is also not possible.
• Refill AdBiue® at the latest when the re-maining distance reaches approximately 1,000 km.
• Never allow the Ad Blue® tank to run emp-ty.
A WARNING
Ad Blue® is an Irritant and corrosive fluid that can damage the skin, eyes and breathing passages upon contact.

Winter tyres
r-f'n First read and observe the introductory L-J,::JJ information and safety warnings & on page 367.
In winter road conditions, winter tyres will consider-ably improve the car's handling. The design of summer tyres (width, rubber compound, tread pat-tern) gives less grip on ice and snow. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles urgently recommends you use winter tyres or all-year tyres on all 4 wheels of the vehicle, particularly if winter conditions are ex-pected on the roads. Winter tyres will also improve the braking response of the vehicle and will help to reduce braking distances in winter weather. Volks-wagen Commercial Vehicles recommends that win-ter tyres be fitted to the vehicle at temperatures un-der+ 7•c (+45°F).
Winter tyres lose their effectiveness when the tread is worn down to a depth of 4 mm. Winter tyres also largely lose their effectiveness through ageing-regardless of the tread depth.
The following applies when using winter tyres:
• Observe any country-specific legal require-ments.
• Use winter tyres on all four wheels at the same time.
• Only use in winter road conditions.
• Only use the sizes of winter tyre that have been approved for the vehicle.
• Winter tyres must have the same type, size (rolling circumference) and the same tread pattern.
• Heed the maximum speed permitted by the speed index => &.
Speed limitation
Winter tyres have a speed limitation depending on the speed index =>page 375.
In some vehicle versions, a speed warning can be set in the menu MFD (multi function display) in the instrument cluster =>page 24.
378 I Cleaning and maintenance
Some tyre manufacturers use the code "ZR" for tyres with a highest permitted speed of over 240 km/h (149 mph).
If you use V-rated tyres the speed limits and re-quired tyre pressure will be determined by the en-gine size. You must ask a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles dealership about the highest permitted speed and required tyre pressure.
Four-wheel drive (4MOTION)
Thanks to its four-wheel drive, the vehicle will have plenty of traction in winter conditions, even with the standard tyres. Nevertheless, Volkswagen Com-mercial Vehicles still recommends that winter tyres or all-year tyres should be fitted on all four wheels when winter road conditions are expected, mainly because this will give a better braking response.
Please refer to the appropriate information and notes when using snow chains =>page 379.
A WARNING
The Improved winter driving characteristics afforded by the winter tyres should not en-courage you to take any risks.
• Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic con-ditions.
• Never exceed the top speed and load per-mitted for the winter tyres that are fitted.
r:Q;-.. Summer tyres should be fitted in good time at the end of the winter. The vehicle handling is better if summer tyres are fitted at temperatures above +7•c (+45.F). They are quieter, do not wear so quickly and reduce fuel consumption.
m In vehicles with a tyre monitoring system, the l!.J systems have to "re-synchronise" after wheels are changed =>page 318.

Retrofitting two-way radios
.--m First read and observe the introductory L-.lc.U information and safety warnings & on page 394.
You will need an external aerial to use a two-way radio in the vehicle.
Any retrofit installation of electrical or electronic equipment in the vehicle will affect its vehicle type approval. Under certain circumstances, this can negate the type approval for the vehicle.
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has approved the vehicle for use with two-way radios providing the following conditions are observed:
• Correct installation of external aerial.
• A maximum transmitting power of 10 watts.
The equipment can only operate at maximum range with an external aerial.
Check first with a qualified workshop if you wish to use a two-way radio with a transmitting power of over 10 watts. Qualified workshops are familiar with the technical options for retrofitting. Volkswa-gen Commercial Vehicles recommends using a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles dealership for this purpose.
Information stored in the control units
.--m First read and observe the introductory L-.lc.U Information and safety warnings & on page 394.
Your vehicle is factory fitted with electronic control units which are responsible for engine and gearbox management. The control units also monitor the function of the exhaust system and the airbags.
These electronic control units continuously evalu-ate data relevant to the vehicle while the vehicle is being driven. Only these data will be stored if there are any faults recorded or any deviations from the specified values. This is generally displayed by the indicator lamps on the instrument cluster.
Special units are required to read and evaluate da-ta stored in the control units.
These data are stored so that specialist workshops can diagnose and solve problems. The following data may have been stored:
• Engine and gearbox-relevant data.
• Speed.
• Direction of travel.
398 Cleaning and maintenance
Please comply with relevant legislation and the in-structions and information given in the operating manuals for radio equipment.
A WARNING
If radio equipment is not secured or not prop-erly secured in the vehicle, it could be flung though the interior during a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre, or In the event of an accident. This can cause Injuries.
• While the vehicle is in motion, always se-cure radio equipment properly outside the airbag deployment zone or stow them away safely.
A CAUTION
If you use two-way radios in the car without an external aerial, electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle could exceed limit values. This also applies to external aerials which have not been correctly installed.
• Two-way radios should only be used In the vehicle If an external aerial Is properly connected.
• Braking power.
• Seat belt monitor.
The control units never record conversations that take place in the vehicle. it is neither possible nor permitted to use the stored data to create move-ment profiles.
When the vehicle is being used, situations may arise in which the stored data (alone or in conjunc-tion with other information such as accident re-ports, vehicle damage, witness statements etc.) can become assignable to a particular person, whereby consultation of an expert and use of the expert's information may be necessary.
In vehicles with an emergency call function via a mobile telephone or other units, the current loca-tion can be transmitted. In the event of an accident in which the control units register that an airbag has been triggered, the system can automatically send out a signal. This depends on your service provider. Transmission is possible only in areas
