WARNING
Using the wrong fuse, using a blown fuse that has been re-
paired, and using metal objects in place of fuses to complete
the electrical connection in the circuit can cause fires and seri-
ous personal injury.
Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amp rating.
Replace a blown fuse only with a fuse of the same amperage
(same color and same imprint) and same overall size.
Never repair fuses.
Never replace fuses with a metal strip, a paper clip, or a simi-
lar object.
NOTICE
To help prevent damage to the electrical system, switch off all
lights and accessories, switch off the ignition, and remove the
key from the ignition switch before replacing a fuse.
If a fuse is replaced with a fuse with higher amperage, this can
also cause damage at different locations in the electrical system.
Open fuse boxes must be protected from dirt and moisture.
Dirt and moisture in fuse boxes can cause damage to the electri-
cal system.

WARNING
Never tow a vehicle without any electrical power.
Never remove the remote control vehicle key from the igni-
tion switch or turn off the ignition with the starter button while
the vehicle is moving. The electronic steering column lock
could suddenly engage, and you would not be able to steer or
control the vehicle. You can lose control of the vehicle, crash,
and seriously injure yourself and others.
If the vehicle loses power while it is being towed, stop towing
the vehicle immediately and contact your authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility
for assistance.
WARNING
Towing a vehicle changes the way it handles and brakes. To
help reduce the risk of an accident and serious personal injury,
note the following:
The driver of the vehicle that is being towed:
– Since the brake booster also does not work when the en-
gine is stopped, you will need to press harder on the brake
pedal to slow down or stop. Always be alert so as not to rear-
end the towing vehicle.
– Will have to use considerably more force to turn the steer-
ing wheel because the power steering is not working.
The driver of the vehicle that is doing the towing:
– Must accelerate gradually and gently and avoid jerking
movements.
– Must not brake hard or steer sharply.
– Must brake earlier and more gently than in normal driving.
NOTICE
Be careful not to damage the paint when installing and remov-
ing the towing eye and the cover for the threaded hole behind
the bumper.
