been switched off, provided the driver door or the front passenger door is not opened.
If the closing procedure has been started, it will be interrupted as soon as the ignition is switched off
and the switch for the electric panorama sliding and tilting glass roof is activated.
If it is not possible to close the electric panorama sliding/tilting glass roof electrically you will have to
close it manually. You will not be able to close the electric panorama sliding/tilting glass roof
manually without first removing some vehicle components. Proceed to a qualified workshop.
Sliding blind
Use the handle at the front near the roof opening to move the sliding blind to the required position.
The convenience position allows sufficient air supply together with low wind noise.

The ESC or the TCS/TC can only function properly if all four wheels have the same tyres.
Any differences in the rolling radius of the tyres can cause the system to reduce engine power
unexpectedly.
If the ABS fails, the ESC, TCS, TC and EDL will also cease to function.
Control processes running in the systems described may cause operating noises.
Brake fluid
Fig. 101 In the engine compartment: cap on the brake fluid container
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Brake fluid will gradually absorb water from the surrounding air. The brake system will be damaged
if there is too much water in the brake fluid. The boiling point of the brake fluid is also considerably
reduced by the water content. Heavy use of the brakes may cause a vapour lock in the brake
system if the water content is too high. Vapour locks reduce levels of braking power, considerably
increase braking distance and can even cause the brake system to fail completely. Your own safety
and that of other road users depends on having a brake system that functions properly at all times
⇒.
Brake fluid specification
Volkswagen has developed a brake fluid that has been optimised for the brake system in the
vehicle. To ensure optimal operation of the brake system, Volkswagen recommends the use of
brake fluid compliant with VW standard 501 14.
Driving fast on icy, slippery or wet roads can lead to a loss of control of the vehicle and could
cause serious injury to the driver and passengers.
