2015 VOLKSWAGEN CC light

If the tire pressure is too low, the relevant tires and the respective
readings are highlighted in yellow.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked month-
ly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by
the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres-
sure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size
indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly underinflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-
inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect
the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumi-
nation of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indi-
cator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash
for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminat-
ed. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunc-
tions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS mal-
function telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.

Spare wheel or compact spare wheel
The spare wheel or compact spare wheel has no tire pressure sen-
sor. When the spare or compact spare wheel is mounted on the vehi-
cle, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicator light will
flash in the instrument cluster display. The TPMS continues to moni-
tor the other 3 wheels.
Tire storage
If the tires do not move for an extended period of time, the sensors
will not transmit tire pressures to the system. This saves sensor bat-
tery life. When the ignition is switched on, the sensors transmit sig-
nals to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
WARNING
Incorrect tire pressure can cause sudden tire failure, loss of
vehicle control and serious personal injury.
Always check and correct air pressure in all 4 tires, particu-
larly after changing, exchanging, or repairing tires.
After that, always make sure that all 4 tires are inflated to the
correct tire pressure for the tires installed on the vehicle.
See the tire pressure label ⇒  Tire inflation pressure and the
Owner's Literature for recommended cold tire inflation pressure
and other important information.
When replacing tires or wheel rims on vehicles equipped with
TPMS, always read and heed all of the information and WARN-
INGS ⇒  Tires and wheels.
NOTICE
The wheel electronics are attached to special aluminum valves
on the wheels. These valves are screwed on rigidly. Never bend
the valves “into position” when checking and adjusting tire
pressure.
Missing tire air valve caps could result in damage to the
valves, as well as to the sensors on the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System. Therefore, make sure your valve caps conform to the
specifications of those originally installed on the vehicle and
that they are always tightly and properly screwed on to the
valves. Do not use metallic valve caps.

WARNING
Objects in the driver footwell can prevent the pedals from mov-
ing freely. This can cause loss of vehicle control and increase
the risk of serious personal injuries.
Always make sure that nothing can interfere with the pedals.
Always fasten floor mats securely to the floor.
Never put floor mats or other floor coverings on top of al-
ready installed floor mats.
Always make sure that nothing can fall into the driver
footwell while the vehicle is moving.
WARNING
Some kinds of cigarette lighters can be lit unintentionally, or
crushed causing a fire that can result in serious burns and ve-
hicle damage.
Always make sure that there are no lighters in the seat tracks
or near other moving parts before adjusting the seats.
Before closing a storage compartment, always make sure
that no cigarette lighter can be activated, crushed, or otherwise
damaged.
Never leave a cigarette lighter in a storage compartment, on
the instrument panel, or in other places in the vehicle. Heat
buildup in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked
vehicle can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are much
higher than the outside temperatures, particularly in summer.
High temperatures could cause the cigarette lighter to catch
fire.
NOTICE
The defroster heating wires or antenna in the rear window can
be damaged by hard or sharp things on the shelf below the rear
window.
Do not keep any food, medicine, or other items sensitive to
heat or cold in the vehicle. They can be damaged or made unus-
able by heat or cold.

Things that are made of transparent materials (such as eye-
glasses, magnifying glasses, or transparent suction cups on the
windows) can magnify sunlight and damage the vehicle.
The ventilation slots between the rear window and the shelf be-
hind the rear seat backrest must not be blocked so that stale air can
escape from the vehicle.
Storage compartment in the doors

Fig. 118 In the driver door: Storage compartment.

Your vehicle may have a storage compartment that can be used for
storing eyeglasses or other light objects.
To open, briefly press and release the button ⇒ fig. 120 (arrow) on the
storage compartment cover.
To close, push the lid up until it latches.
Storage compartment in the front center console

Storage compartments in the luggage compartment
Additional storage compartments are located in the sides of the lug-
gage compartment. The side panels can be removed by pulling up-
ward in the direction of the arrow ⇒ fig. 127 to make room for larger
objects in the luggage compartment.
Additional storage:
In the front and rear center consoles.
In the door trim panels (front and rear).
Shelf behind the rear seat backrest – only for light clothing or simi-
lar objects that do not interfere with visibility to the rear!
Coat hooks on the center door pillars and on the overhead grab
handles in the rear.
WARNING
Clothes or other items on the shelf behind the rear seat
backrest may limit visibility and cause accidents and severe
personal injuries.
Always hang clothes so that they do not limit visibility.
Always use the built-in coat hooks only for lightweight cloth-
ing. Never leave any heavy or sharp-edged items in the pockets
that may interfere with airbag deployment and can cause per-
sonal injury in a collision.

Indicator lights

WARNING
Rapid acceleration can cause skidding and loss of traction, es-
pecially on slippery roads, resulting in a loss of vehicle control,
collisions, and serious personal injury.
Only use the kick-down feature or fast acceleration if visibil-
ity, weather, road, and traffic conditions permit and other driv-
ers will not be endangered by your driving and the vehicle's ac-
celeration.
WARNING
Constant braking causes the brakes to overheat and even to fail
leading to collisions and serious personal injury.
Never “ride” the brakes or apply the brake pedal too often or
too long.
Riding the brakes will substantially reduce braking perfor-
mance, increase stopping distance, and can cause complete
brake system failure.
NOTICE
Never “ride” the brakes by keeping your foot on the brake pe-
dal when you do not want to brake. This will make the brakes
wear faster.
Before driving downhill, especially on hills that are long or
steep, always reduce speed and shift into lower gear (manual or
automatic transmission). This will let the vehicle use engine
braking and reduce the load on the brakes. Otherwise, the brake
system could overheat and even fail. Only use the brakes when
you need them to slow the vehicle down more or to stop.
