Accessories,
modifications
and
renewal
of
parts
The Caravelle/Transporter is
built
in accord
ance
with
the most modern principles of
safety technology and offers therefore a nigh degree of active and passive safety. To
ensure
that
this remains so the vehicle as supplied by the factory may not be modified
without
careful thought. The following
points must be noted if the vehicle is to be subsequently
fitted
with
accessories,
technically modified or have parts renewed ater on:
• Always consult a Volkswagen dealer be
fore
purchasing accessories and
before
any modifications are carried out because
through close cooperation
with
us the Volk
swagen
Organisation is particularly com-
oetent in such matters.
Attention
In
your
own
interests
we recom
mend
that
only
genuine
acces
sories or
only
expressly
approved
Volkswagen
accessories1 and
Genuine
Volkswagen
Parts
are used on
your
Caravelle/Trans
porter.
The
reliability,
safety
and
suitability
of
these
accessories
and
these
parts
has
been
specially
determined
for the Ca
ravelle/Transporter.
•
Despite
continuous
market
ob
servation
we
cannot
assess or ac
cept
responsibility
for
other
products
even
though
in some
cases
approval
has
been
given
by
a
legally
appointed
test
centre
or
an
official
permit
has
been
given.
• Approved Volkswagen accessories and
Genuine
Volkswagen Parts can be obtained
from Volkswagen dealers who will of
course
carry out the
fitting
correctly.
• Additionally connected electric
con
sumers
e.g. cold box, horns, fans etc. must
correspond to the electromagnetic compatibility as per DIN VDE 40 839. Otherwise
functional defects can occur in the vehicle.
• If technical modifications are to be
made,
our guidelines must be observed.
This
is to ensure
that
no damage occurs to
the vehicle, the
traffic
and operating safety
is
retained and
that
the modifications are
permissible.
Volkswagen dealers will also
carry out this work correctly or will recom mend a specialist workshop.

Tow
starting/towing
General
notes
• "owing eyes are provided on the
right
under
front
and rear bumpers.
Tow-ropes
or bars should be attached at
these
points only.
On
vehicles
with
a factory
fitted
towing bracket a towing eye is not fitted. On those
vehicles
the towing bracket can be used for
towing.
• The tow-rope should be slightly elastic to reduce the risk of damage to both ve
hicles.
It is advisable to use synthetic fibre
ropes,
or ropes of similar elastic material. It
is
however
safer
to use a
tow-bar!
Avoid
excessive towing
effort
and do not
jerk.
During towing operations on other than
surfaced
roads there is always the danger
that
the attachment points will be over
loaded
and damaged.
•
Before
trying
to
start
engine
by
towing,
the
battery
from
another
ve
hicle
should be used for
starting
if
possible - see previous page. If the
vehicle
has to be tow
started
or
towed
at any
time,
the
following
must
be noted:
•
Check
whether there are any local traffic regulations concerning the towing of ve
hicles.
• Both drivers must be familiar
with
tow ing procedures. Inexperienced drivers
should
not attempt to tow start or tow.
• When using a tow-rope the driver of the towing vehicle must engage the clutch very gently when moving off and changing gear.
• The driver of the vehicle being towed must ensure
that
the tow-rope is always
taut.
• The emergency lights must be switchec
on on both vehicles - unless local regula
tions differ.
• Turn ignition key to "Drive" position sc
that
the steering wheel is free and the
turr
signals,
horn, and, if necessary, the wind
screen
wiper and washer can be
used.
• As the brake servo only works when the engine is running, considerably more pres
sure
is required on the brake pedal when the
engine is not running.
• On vehicles
with
power assisted steer ing more force is required to
turn
steering
wheel when engine is not running.
• When there is no lubricant in the manua or automatic gearbox, the vehicle may only
be
towed
with
driving wheels lifted.
