If necessary, blend with a suitable windshield washer fluid
antifreeze agent.

age can occur!

replace or remount the tire as soon as possible in order to restore the
correct direction of rotation.
Rotating tires
To help ensure even wear on all tires, regular tire rotation according
to the diagram ⇒ fig. 110 is recommended. In this way all tires can
have about the same service life.
Volkswagen recommends that you have your tires rotated by an au-
thorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facili-
ty.
Tires more than 6 years old
Tires age even if they are not being used. Physical and chemical pro-
cesses reduce tire strength and performance and cause them to
harden and become brittle. Old tires can fail suddenly and without
warning.
Volkswagen recommends replacing tires that are 6 years and older.
This also applies to tires that look new (an unused spare and the tire
on the compact spare wheel) or that seem to still be usable with tread
depth that has not yet reached the legal minimum depth ⇒ .
The age of each tire can be determined with the manufacturing date
that is part of the U.S. DOT tire identification number (4).) ⇒ Tire label-
ing.
Tire storage
Mark tires before removing them to help make sure that the previous
location (left, right, front, rear) and rolling direction can be maintained
when remounting them. Store tires in a cool, dry and preferably dark
place. Do not store tires mounted on wheels standing up.
Tires not mounted on wheels should be covered to help protect them
from dirt and stored vertically (sitting on the tread).
WARNING
Aggressive fluids and materials can cause visible and invisible
tire damage that can cause tire blowouts.
Always keep chemicals, oils, grease, fuels, braking fluids and
other aggressive substances away from tires.

WARNING
Vehicle care products can be dangerous. Improper use can
cause accidents, burns, poisoning, or other serious personal
injuries.
Always store vehicle care products only in original contain-
ers that are securely closed.

To reduce the risk of poisoning, never use empty food or
beverage containers that might mislead someone into drinking
from them.
Always keep vehicle care products out of the reach of chil-
dren.
Always use such products outdoors or in well-ventilated are-
as, because harmful vapors may be released when these prod-
ucts are used.
Never use fuel, turpentine, engine oil, nail polish remover or
other volatile fluids for vehicle care. They are poisonous and
highly flammable.

Cleaning upholstery on non-heated seats, manual seats, or seats
without airbag components
Before using any cleaning agent, familiarize yourself with instruc-
tions and warnings on the packaging.
Vacuum upholstery, fabric trim, Alcantara® upholstery, and carpet-
ing regularly with a suitable brush attachment.
Do not use power washers, steam cleaners, or cooling spray.
A soft sponge or a commercially available lint-free microfiber cloth
may be used for general cleaning ⇒ .
Clean Alcantara® surfaces with a damp cotton or wool cloth or a
commercially available lint-free microfiber cloth ⇒ .
Upholstery and fabric trim with light generalized soiling can be
cleaned with a commercially available dry-foam cleaner.
If the upholstery and fabric trim pieces are heavily soiled, see your
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility before you begin cleaning to learn about suitable cleaning
options. If necessary, have the cleaning done by a professional.
Treating stains
When treating stains, it may be necessary to clean the entire surface
and not just the stain itself. This is especially true if the entire surface
has become dirty from normal use. Otherwise, the area that is treated
may become lighter than the untreated area. If you have questions or
concerns, consult a professional cleaner.

This could cause fatal injuries.
Have the airbag system inspected immediately by your au-
thorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility.
NOTICE
If the upholstery on power seats, heated seats, or seats with air-
bag components is wet, electrical components and the vehicle
electrical system could be damaged.
If the seating surface becomes soaked, have it dried and the
system components checked immediately by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

dirt to penetrate deeper into the fabric and make it impossible to
remove.
Power washers and cooling sprays can damage the uphol-
stery.
NOTICE
Clean only the carpet and floor mats with brushes. Other tex-
tile surfaces can be damaged by brushes.
If detergent pastes or mild detergent solutions are applied with
