WARNING
Improper use of the steering column adjustment feature can
result in serious personal injury and even death.
Always pull the lever (1) firmly upward after adjusting the
steering column so that the steering wheel does not change
position suddenly while the vehicle is moving.
Never adjust the steering column while the vehicle is moving.
If you find that you need to adjust the steering wheel while driv-
ing, stop the vehicle in a safe place and make the proper ad-
justment.
Never adjust the steering wheel so that it points toward your
face. Always make sure that the steering wheel points toward
your chest. Otherwise, the airbag system cannot protect you
properly in the event of a crash.
Always hold the steering wheel on the outside of the steering
wheel rim with your hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi-
tions to help reduce the risk of serious personal injury if the
driver's airbag inflates.
Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position or
with your hands anywhere inside the steering wheel or on the
steering wheel hub. Holding the steering wheel the wrong way
increases the risk of severe injury to the arms, hands, and head
if the driver airbag deploys.

Damaged wheel rims must be replaced, and you must never take
them apart or try to repair them yourself. Have an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility re-
pair them for you ⇒ .
Wheel rims with bolted decorative covers
Light-alloy wheels may have interchangeable decorative covers at-
tached to the rim with self-locking screws. If you want to replace
damaged wheel covers, contact your authorized Volkswagen dealer
or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
WARNING
Using improper or damaged wheel rims can affect driving safe-
ty, cause accidents and severe personal injury.
Use only wheel rims approved for the vehicle.
Regularly check wheel rims for damage and replace them if
necessary.
WARNING
Improper loosening and tightening of the bolts on wheel rims
with bolted rim rings can cause accidents and severe personal
injury.
Never loosen bolted connections on wheel rims with bolted
rim rings.
Have all work on wheel rims with bolted rim rings performed
by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen
Service Facility.
New and replacement tires

Install only radial tires only of the same make, the same dimen-
sions (tread circumference), and similar tread profile on all 4 wheels.
The tread depth of new tires can differ between tire models and
manufacturers because of different design features and tread design.
Replacing tires
Tires should be replaced in pairs and not individually (both front
tires or both rear tires at the same time) ⇒ .
Replace tires only with tires that have the same specifications, in-
cluding width and diameter, load and top speed rating as the tires
approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model.
Never use tires that are larger or wider than the dimensions of the
tires approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model. Larger
tires could scrape and rub on the vehicle body or other parts of the
vehicle.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) considerations
Factory-installed wheels are equipped with a sensor that constantly
monitors tire pressure, then transmits this information to the TPMS ⇒ 
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). If you are going to replace
the wheels, make sure that the new wheels also have sensors that
are compatible with the TPMS on your vehicle. New wheels with sen-
sors have to be recognized and integrated into the system. The new
wheels and sensors are recognized and integrated when driving off
the first time.
If you install wheels that do not have sensors, or have sensors that
are not compatible, the TPMS will not work properly. In this case, the
TPMS will not be able to monitor tire pressure or warn you if pressure
is low. An error message may appear in the instrument cluster display
or the TPMS will switch itself off.
Whenever you change sensors, you have to install new valves and
seals. Please see an authorized Volkswagen dealer of an authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility.
Always drive with the valve caps securely installed. We recom-
mend using factory-supplied valve caps. Ask an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility to
replace lost caps.
If you install new tires that differ the original Volkswagen specifica-
tions, for your vehicle and model, the benchmark tire inflation pres-

WARNING
Improper use of a spare wheel or a compact spare wheel can
cause loss of vehicle control, a crash or other accident, and se-
rious personal injury.
Never use a spare wheel or compact spare wheel if it is dam-
aged or worn down to the wear indicators.
In some vehicles, the spare wheel or compact spare wheel is
smaller than the original tire. A smaller compact spare wheel is
identified with a sticker and the words “50 mph” or “80 km/h”.
This is the maximum permissible speed when driving with this
tire.
Never drive faster than 50 mph (80 km/h) with a compact
spare wheel. Avoid full-throttle acceleration, heavy braking, and
fast cornering!
Never drive more than 125 miles (200 km) if a compact spare
wheel is installed on the front axle (drive axle).
Replace the compact spare with a normal wheel and tire as
soon as possible. Compact spare tires are designed for brief
use only.
Regularly check the U.S. DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN)
to determine the age of the compact spare wheel ⇒  Tire label-
ing. Tires age even if they are not being used and can fail sud-
denly, especially at higher speeds.
Tires that are more than 6 years old can only be used in an
emergency and then with special care and at lower speeds.
The compact spare wheel must always be secured with the
wheel bolts provided by the factory.
Never drive using more than one compact spare wheel.
After installing the compact spare wheel, the tire pressure
must be checked as soon as possible ⇒  Tire inflation pressure.
Snow chains cannot be used on the compact spare wheel. If
you must use snow chains and have a compact spare wheel
mounted, move the compact spare wheel to the rear axle if a
front tire has to be replaced. The tire taken off the rear axle can
then be used to replace the flat front tire. Be sure you do not
change the tire's direction of rotation. Install the snow chains
on the full-sized road tire.

Install summer tires promptly in the spring. Summer tires offer
better handling characteristics for temperatures above +45 °F (+7 °C).
They are quieter, do not wear as quickly, and reduce fuel consump-
tion.
If factory-installed wheels and/or tires are replaced when in-
stalling winter tires, make sure that the wheels are equipped with
sensors that are compatible with the factory-installed Tire Pressure
Monitoring System and that the tires are also compatible with the sys-
tem. If new tires are not identical to those that were removed and re-
quire different cold tire inflation pressure, the tire inflation pressure
values must be reprogrammed for the TPMS. Please see your author-
ized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility ⇒ 
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System must be recalibrated whenever
you remove and remount or change any wheel or tire on the vehicle,
even if the reinstalled or replacement wheels and tires are identical to
those that were removed and even if the tire pressure does not
change.
If necessary, ask your authorized Volkswagen dealer or author-
ized Volkswagen Service Facility about permissible winter tire dimen-
sions.
Snow chains
