NOTICE
x Please be careful when parking your vehicle in areas with parking barriers or curbs. These vary in height and could damage your bumper and related parts if the front of your vehicle hits a barrier or curb that is too high while you are getting into or out of a parking spot.
x Always be careful when you enter a driveway or drive up or down steep ramps or over curbs or other obstacles. Parts of the vehicle close to the ground may be damaged (such as bumper covers, spoilers, and parts of the engine, suspension, and exhaust systems).
2 Slight differences to these figures are possible, depending on wheel and tire size fitted and the equipment level selected.

When switched on, the rain sensor automatically shortens or lengthens the time between wiping
intervals depending on how hard it is raining ⇒ . The rain sensor's sensitivity can be adjusted
manually. Manual wiping (vehicles without rain sensors), see ⇒  Windshield wiper lever.
Push the lever into the desired position ⇒ fig. 80:
(A) Rain sensor off (windshield wiper lever home position).
(B) Rain sensor active – automatic wiping as needed.
(1) Adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor:
– Move switch to the right – high sensitivity.
– Move switch to the left – low sensitivity.
After switching the ignition off and back on again, the rain sensor stays on and works again when the wiper lever is in position (B).
Possible reasons for changes in the way the rain sensor works
The rain sensor may misread what is happening in the detection zone of its sensitive rain-sensor
surface ⇒ fig. 81 (arrow) and not work for a number of reasons, which may include:
x Worn out wiper blades: Worn out wiper blades may leave a film of water or wiping streaks; this can cause the wipers to run longer, to wipe more often, or to wipe continuously at high speed.
x Insects: Insects hitting the windshield may trigger the wipers.
x Salt streaks: Salt streaks on the windshield from winter driving can cause wiping more often or continuously on glass that is almost dry.
x Dirt: Caked-on dust, wax, any other buildup on the windshield (lotus effect), or car-wash detergent residue can lower the rain sensor's sensitivity and cause it to react too slowly or not at all.
x Crack or chip in the windshield: If a stone hits and chips the windshield while the rain sensor is on, this will trigger a wiper cycle. After that, the rain sensor will recognize the change and recalibrate itself to respond to the sensitive surface's reduced detection zone. Depending on the size of the chip, the sensor's reaction pattern may or may not change.
WARNING
The rain sensor cannot always recognize rain and activate the wipers.
x Switch the wipers on manually when water on the windshield reduces visibility.
Clean the rain sensor's sensitive surface ⇒ fig. 81 (arrows) regularly and check the wiper blades for wear or damage.
To remove wax and coats of polish safely, we recommend using an alcohol-based windshield cleaner.

The design of the wheel bolts is matched to the factory-installed wheels. If different wheels are in-stalled, wheel bolts with the right length and bolt head shape must be used. This helps to ensure that
wheels can be mounted securely and that the brakes will work correctly ⇒  Changing a wheel.
In most cases, you cannot use wheel bolts from a different vehicle. Even wheel rims from the same model may not fit properly.
Tires and wheel rims approved by Volkswagen have been matched precisely to your vehicle model and contribute considerably to good handling and safe vehicle performance.
Tightening torque
Wheel bolts must always be installed with the correct tightening torque ⇒  Changing a wheel. The required tightening torque for your vehicle's wheel bolts is 88 ft-lbs (120 Nm). After changing a wheel, the bolt torque must be checked as soon as possible with an accurate torque wrench. See an author-ized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Wheel rims with bolted rim rings
Wheel rims with bolted rim rings have several parts. The parts are bolted together with special screws in a special process. This helps to ensure that they will work properly, prevent leaks, run true and safely. Damaged wheel rims must be replaced, and you must never take them apart or try to repair them yourself. Have an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility
repair them for you ⇒ .
Wheel rims with bolted decorative covers
Light-alloy wheels may have interchangeable decorative covers attached to the rim with self-locking screws. If you want to replace damaged wheel covers, contact your authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
WARNING
Using improper or damaged wheel rims can affect driving safety, cause accidents and severe personal injury.
x Use only wheel rims approved for the vehicle.
x Regularly check wheel rims for damage and replace them if necessary.
WARNING
Improper loosening and tightening of the bolts on wheel rims with bolted rim rings can cause accidents and severe personal injury.
x Never loosen bolted connections on wheel rims with bolted rim rings.
x Have all work on wheel rims with bolted rim rings performed by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
New and replacement tires

Key to figure ⇒ fig. 133:
Meaning
(2) Selected parking space.
(3) Side lines of the selected parking space.
(4) Rear boundary of the parking space, such as a curb.

All references to the length of orientation lines apply to a vehicle that is standing on a horizontal sur-face.
Parking using the Rear View Camera system

Step Action:
1. The requirements for parking and maneuvering with the Rear
View Camera system must be fulfilled
2. Position the vehicle in front of the parking space (2) ⇒ fig. 133 A.
3. Shift into Reverse (R).
4. Reverse slowly and steer the vehicle B so that the lateral yellow
orientation lines lead into the parking space (2).
Pay attention to the message in the display: Look! Safe to
move? ⇒ 
5. Align the vehicle in the parking space B so that the yellow orienta-
tion lines are parallel with the parking space (3).
6. Stop the vehicle C before (or at the very latest, when) the horizon-
tal yellow line reaches the rear boundary, for example, a curb (4).

NOTICE
Smaller objects up to about 20 inches (50 cm) from the rear of the vehicle will not be detected by the camera and could result in vehicle damage.
