Engine life is influenced by how you drive the vehicle for the first
1000 miles (1600 km). Even afterwards, driving at moderate engine
speeds, especially when the engine is cold, will tend to reduce engine
wear and help the engine to last longer and go farther. But do not
drive at an excessively low engine speed, either. Always downshift if
the engine is not running smoothly. For the first 600 miles
(1000 km):
Do not use full throttle.
Don't let the engine speed get above 2/3 the maximum speed.
Do not tow a trailer.
From 600 to 1000 miles (1000 to 1600 km): Speed may gradually
be increased to maximum permissible road and engine speed.

Parts and accessories

Mobile or cellular telephones send and receive radio waves, some-
times called “radiofrequency energy” (RF energy), both when they are
being used and when they are in standby mode. Current scientific
literature indicates that radio waves that exceed a certain level can
have effects on the human body. Limits and guidelines have been
established by governmental authorities and international committees
in an effort to keep the electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones
at levels that will not cause health problems. However, there is no
scientifically based proof that wireless phones are absolutely safe.
Therefore, some experts recommend a precautionary approach re-
garding the use of mobile phones by taking measures that lower the
personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. When using a mobile
telephone inside a motor vehicle without a proper connection to an
integrated vehicle telephone antenna, the personal exposure to elec-
tromagnetic fields will be higher than when using the mobile tele-
phone while properly connected to an integrated or other outside ve-
hicle telephone antenna.
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional hands-free system
that will permit many of the features of compatible Bluetooth® enabled
mobile telephones to be used for greater convenience and is con-
sistent with the laws of an increasing number of states and localities
that prohibit the use of mobile telephones without some kind of
hands-free device.
The hands-free system in your vehicle can be used with certain mo-
bile phones that are connected by wire and hardware connector or via
compatible Bluetooth® enabled phones with a cradle that is designed
to fit your mobile telephone.The special cradle offers several ad-
vantages: The phone cradle must be safely secured to the base plate.
Your phone is firmly attached to the instrument panel and is within
reach at all times. Placing the phone in its cradle permits it to be
charged, but more importantly connects the mobile phone to the vehi-
cle's outside antenna. A mobile telephone that is properly connected
to the integrated or other outside vehicle telephone antenna will lower
the personal exposure to electromagnetic fields. You should also ex-
perience a better quality of service. Although a mobile telephone can
be used inside your vehicle without a cradle, the phone will not be
securely attached to the vehicle, will not be charged through the cra-
dle wiring, and more importantly will not be connected to the vehicle's
integrated telephone antenna. The mobile phone will also not be re-

Government regulations in the United States and Canada require that
automobiles meet specific emission regulations and safety standards.
Therefore, vehicles built for the U.S. and Canada differ from vehicles
sold in other countries.
If you plan to take your vehicle outside the continental limits of the
United States or Canada, there is the possibility that:
Unleaded fuels for vehicles with catalytic converters may not be
available.
Fuel may have a considerably lower octane rating and may cause
engine damage.
Service may be inadequate due to lack of proper service facilities,
tools or testing equipment.
Replacement parts may not be readily available.
DVD navigation systems for vehicles built for the United States and
Canada will not necessarily work in Europe, and may not work in oth-
er countries outside of North America.

Volkswagen is not responsible if the vehicle does not meet the

Fig. 174 Rear lift point for workshop hoist or floor jack.
The vehicle may only be raised at the lift points shown in illustrations
⇒ fig. 173 and ⇒ fig. 174. If the vehicle is lifted at different points, ve-
hicle damage ⇒  and serious injuries may occur ⇒ .
Workshop hoists that use fluid cushions (receiving platforms) must
not be used for lifting the vehicle.
There are many precautions that have to be followed when lifting a
vehicle on a workshop hoist or floor jack. Do not try to lift a vehicle on
a workshop hoist or floor jack unless you have the training,
knowledge, and experience to be able to do so safely.
