Notes on cleaning and care
Clean the refrigerator box thoroughly before using it for the first time, if it is dirty or if it has not been used for a long time.
To avoid stains and mildew in the refrigerator box if it remains unused for a long time, leave the cover slightly open.
• Use water and normal household cleaning fluid to clean the refrigerator box.
• The refrigerator box should be defrosted regu-larly to prevent layers of ice forming. To do this, switch the refrigerator box off and leave the cover open. Do not use an additional heat source to de-frost the refrigerator more quickly. This could dam-age the refrigerator => Battery monitor
If the refrigerator box is left on when the engine is not running, the additional battery runs down. The refrigerator box is therefore fitted with a battery monitor. The battery monitor will switch the refriger-ated box off if the charge of the additional battery becomes too low. The battery monitor will switch the refrigerator box on again as soon as the addi-tional battery has reached a suitable charge level, for example, after a long journey.

• The refrigerator box lid must always be kept closed and locked when the vehicle is in motion.
• Never use the refrigerator box as a table or stowage compartment when the vehicle is In motion.
A WARNING
If the ambient temperature In the vehicle Is too low, the temperature in the refrigerator box could fall below +2 •c {+35 °F) degrees. ThIs could cause the contents of the refriger-ator box to freeze and bottles and other con-tainers to burst, potentially causing Injuries.
• Do not use the refrigerator box when the ambient temperature Is too low.

m The refrigerator box is not suitable for cooling W the vehicle interior. The refrigerator box should only be used to keep food cool and for transporting heat-sensitive items on short journeys. General information
The rear-seat telephony system (hands-free sys-tem in the passenger compartment with Private Mode) works independently of other provision for mobile telephones fitted in the vehicle. Neither the
Equipment, Business 1187

menus provided by way of the instrument cluster nor the factory-installed radio or navigation system can be used to make rear-seat telephony settings.
lfv'hen pairing a mobile telephone with the rear-seat telephony system using the hands-free profile (HFP) and when the mobile telephone is not in the charging base, observe the information on use of a mobile telephone in the vehicle without connection to the external aerial =>page 399.
Follow the operating manual for your mobile tele· phone and the instructions provided by the acces-sory manufacturer.
You may experience poor reception or may be cut off in areas where the signal is weak.
Most electronic devices are shielded against high-frequency signals. In rare cases, however, it Is pos-sible that electronic devices will not be shielded against high-frequency signals emitted by the rear-seat telephony system. This can cause Interfer-ence.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth technology is used to connect a mobile telephone to the hands-free system fitted In a vehi· cle. Pairing needs to be carried out once only in or-der to use the rear-seat telephony system with a Bluetooth mobile telephone.
Use compatible Bluetooth devices only. Information on compatible Bluetooth products Is available from your Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles dealer or on the Internet.
Some Bluetooth mobile telephones are detected and connected automatically when the ignition is switched on. For this to happen, the mobile tele-phone and the Bluetooth function in the telephone must be switched on, and all active Bluetooth con-nections to other units must be disconnected.
The Bluetooth connection is free of charge.

A wARNING
Accidents and Injuries can occur If the driver Is distracted. Using the telephone or the rear· seat telephony system can distract you from what Is happening on the road.
• Select volume settings that allow signals from outside the vehicle (such as emergency services sirens) to be easily heard at all times. Comply with legal regulations.
• Your call may be cut off or you may be un-able to make calls If you are In an area with no mobile telephone network coverage, an area where the network Is very weak or, In some cases, In a tunnel, garage or under-pass. This also means that no emergency calls can be made.
• In some countries, lt Is only possible to make an emergency call from the rear-seat telephony system if it is connected to a mo-bile telephone containing a SIM card that is "unlocked" and has sufficient credit.
A WARNING
Any mobile telephone that is not secured or Is incorrectly secured in the vehicle could be flung though the interior during a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre, or In the event of an accident. This could cause Injuries.
• You should never position or attach a mo-bile telephone on a door, on the windscreen or above or near to the areas marked "AIR-BAG" on the steering wheel, the dash panel and the seat backrests, or between these areas and the vehicle occupants. The mobile telephone could cause serious Injury In an accident, especially when the alrbags Inflate.
A WARNING
Always switch off the mobile telephone when filling the tank and in areas with a risk of ex-plosion. Electromagnetic radiation can gener-ate sparks which can In turn start a fire.
• The mobile telephone can automatically log Itself Into the mobile telephone network again If the Bluetooth connection to the rear-seat telephony system has been Interrupted. I>
