Here are a few hints to help you receive the best mileage* out of your Jetta HybridTips for Fuel-Efﬁcient Driving
Overall power usage:
Keep an eye on the power meter
gauge, and try to drive within the 30 percent power range (blue ECO range).Starting from stop:
Shift into Drive, remove your foot from
the brake pedal, and slowly press the accelerator. Quick acceleration can reduce fuel economy by up to 33 percent on the highway and 5 percent in the city.
1
Everyday driving:
Refrain from heavy acceleration or
braking abruptly. Avoid idling whenever possible.Charging the battery:
Brake early and steadily with short
pedal movements. Let the vehicle coast to a stop.
*See back cover for mpg information.1Driving More Efficiently: Drive Sensibly, www.fueleconomy.gov
Driving on highways and expressways:
Coast as
often as possible when conditions allow. When driving at higher speeds, increased wind resistance reduces fuel economy.Cold weather and frequent short trips:
The engine
does not operate efficiently until it is warmed up. Differences in terrain:
Hilly, mountainous, or unpaved
roads reduce fuel economy.NOTE: When using the AC, set the temperature to 72
o F and press the
AUTO button for greater fuel efficiency.

• Never carry a mobile phone that is switched on in the breast pocket directly over the pacemaker.• If you suspect there may be interference with a pacemaker or other medical device, switch the mobile phone off immediately.• The center armrest can interfere with the driver’s elbow movement and thus cause accidents and severe injuries.• Always keep the armrest closed while driving.CRUISE CONTROL• Using the cruise control when it is not possible to drive safely at a constantspeed can be dangerous and can lead to an accident and serious personalinjuries.• Never use cruise control when driving in heavy or varying traffic or when youcannot keep a safe distance between you and the vehicles ahead of you.Never use cruise control on steep, winding, or slippery roads (such as gravelroads, wet roads, or snowy or icy roads) or on roads with standing water.• Never use cruise control when driving off-road or on unpaved roads.• Always adjust your speed and the distance you keep between you and thevehicles ahead of you to the road, traffic, weather, and visibility conditions.• To help prevent unintended operation of cruise control, switch the system offwhen it is not being used. It is dangerous to use the Resume feature when the previously set speed is too high for the existing road, traffic, or weather conditions.• When going downhill, the cruise control may not be able to maintain aconstant speed. The vehicle will speed up because of its own weight.Downshift and/or use the foot brake to slow the vehicle.• Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text messages can causethe vehicle to break down in traffic and result in a collision and seriouspersonal injury.• Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.• Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.FUELING • Improper refueling or handling of fuel is dangerous and can cause fire, explosion, and severe burns.• Always make sure that the fuel filler cap is screwed on all the way. This helps
keep fuel from spilling out or evaporating.• Fuel is highly flammable and explosive; it can cause severe burns and other severe injuries.• Failure to shut the engine off while refueling and/or to insert the pump nozzle all the way into the fuel filler neck can cause fuel to overflow and to spray out. Fuel spray and overflowing fuel are dangerous because they can cause fire and serious personal injury.• During refueling, the engine and the ignition must be switched off for safety reasons.• Never use a mobile telephone, CB radio, or other radio equipment while refueling. The electromagnetic radiation can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and cause a fire.• Never get back into your vehicle while refueling. If in exceptional circumstances you must get back in your vehicle while refueling, make certain that you close the door and touch metal to discharge static electricity before touching the filler nozzle again. This helps avoid the build-up of static electricity, which can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors released during refueling.• Never smoke or have an open flame (or sparks, cigarettes, or other smoldering objects) anywhere in or near your vehicle when refueling or filling a portable fuel container.• Follow all safety instructions and procedures that apply at the service station where you refuel.• Never spill fuel in the vehicle or the luggage compartment.• Even if empty, portable fuel containers can leak and cause a fire and serious personal injuries, especially in a crash.• For your safety, we strongly recommend that you do not travel with a portable fuel container in your vehicle.• If, under exceptional circumstances, you must transport a portable fuel container, please observe the following:– Never fill a portable fuel container while it is anywhere in or on thevehicle (for example, in the luggage compartment or on top of theluggage compartment lid). Static electricity can build up while fillingand can ignite fuel vapors, causing a fire.– Always place a portable fuel container on the ground before filling.Never spill fuel inside the vehicle or luggage compartment. Fuelvapors are highly flammable.
BLUETOOTH
® TECHNOLOGY
• Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Speaking on or using a phone while driving can distract the driver from traffic.• Select the volume settings so that the acoustic signals from the outside are still audible (e.g. the sirens of emergency rescue vehicles). Obey all applicable legal requirements.• In areas without mobile network coverage or with poor mobile network coverage, as well as in some tunnels, garages and subways, phone conversations may be interrupted, and it may be impossible to make phone calls – even emergency calls.• In some countries and/or certain mobile networks, emergency calls may only be supported when the mobile phone is connected to a mobile phone package which has a SIM card which is “blocked” and/or has sufficient calling credit on it, and adequate network coverage.• A mobile phone on the seat, instrument panel or in other places can be thrown around the inside of the vehicle during a sudden braking maneuver, crash or other accident and cause injury to vehicle occupants.• Never place or mount a mobile phone on doors, the windshield, on or near the area on the steering wheel marked “AIRBAG”, the instrument panel, the seat backrests or the areas between these points and the driver/passengers. Mobile phones can lead to serious injuries in cases of accidents, especially when the airbags are inflated.• Always switch off your mobile phone at gas stations or wherever there is a fire or explosion hazard. The electromagnetic radiation can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and cause a fire.• The mobile phone will automatically connect to the mobile network when the Bluetooth
® connection to the mobile phone package is disconnected.
• Using a radio device in the vehicle without a connection to an external antenna might exceed electromagnetic radiation thresholds. This also applies if the outside antenna is not installed properly.• Always keep the cell phone antenna at least 8 inches (20 cm) away from pacemakers. Heart specialists advise that cell phones can adversely affect the way pacemakers work.Important Safety Instructions and Warnings
are fully charged and energized.• Never touch or let jewelry or other metal objects contact high-voltage cablesor the high-voltage battery and battery poles, especially if the cables, battery,and battery poles have been damaged in any way.• Never do any work yourself on the high-voltage electrical system, the orange colored high-voltage wiring, or on the high-voltage battery.• Never open, service, repair, or disconnect any part of the hybrid electricalsystem.• Never damage the orange colored high-voltage cables. Never remove themand never disconnect them from the high-voltage electrical system.• Never open or remove the orange colored cover on the high-voltage battery.• Always have work on the hybrid electrical system and systems that could beindirectly affected by it done by qualified, trained technicians who have theknow how, experience, documentation, and tools to do the work safely.• All work on the high-voltage electrical system and the high-voltage batterymust be done in compliance with Volkswagen standards and guidelines.• Vehicle keys must be safely stored a safe distance from vehicle so that theignition cannot be switched on and energize the electrical system.• Gases vented or released from the high-voltage battery vapors arepotentially poisonous and can burn.• Physical damage to the vehicle or the high-voltage battery can result inimmediate or delayed release of poisonous gases that can also cause a fire.• Always avoid contact with leaking fluids and gases escaping from the battery, particularly one that has been damaged.• Always tell emergency responders that the vehicle has a high-voltage battery.• Driver distraction causes accidents and serious personal injury. Using theinstrument cluster or accessing Infotainment System menus while driving cantake your attention off the road and cause accidents.• To help reduce the risk of accidents and injuries, never change settings in the instrument cluster display or use Infotainment System functions unless thevehicle is standing still.• When powered by the electric motor, the vehicle makes much less noise, both when idling and driving, than when it is running on the internal combustion engine. It is much harder or even impossible for the drivers of other vehicles and above all for cyclists, pedestrians, and children to hear the vehicle when it is running on electrical power.
• Pedestrians and others can be struck and seriously injured because theycannot hear the vehicle and tell that it is getting close to them, for instancewhen you are parking, backing up, or driving in a low speed zone wherethere is likely to be pedestrian traffic.• Always watch out for pedestrians, especially small children, cyclists, andothers who may not hear the vehicle or realize that it is about to move or willcross their path of travel.• Always be especially careful in residential areas, school zones, and otherplaces where the speed of motor vehicles is restricted and pedestrians may beat greater risk.• Make sure the ignition and the hybrid drive system have both been turned off before leaving the vehicle.• Never leave the vehicle when READY is displayed in the instrument cluster orwhen hybrid drive system indicator lights are still lit. The vehicle can move ifthe accelerator is depressed even though the combustion engine has beenstopped. This can cause accidents and severe or fatal injuries.• Make sure the transmission is in Park (P) before you get out of the vehicle.• Never support the vehicle with cinder blocks, bricks, or other objects toinspect it. The vehicle could slip or move suddenly and cause an accident withserious personal injury.• Never let the hybrid battery get wet. Liquids and other fluids can cause shortcircuits, electrical shock, burns, and explosions.• Never carry large amounts of liquids or other fluids in the luggagecompartment.• Always make sure that any containers with liquids and other fluids areproperly secured and tightly closed to prevent leakage during normal drivingas well as hard cornering, braking, and other vehicle maneuvers. Leakingliquids can get into the cover of the high-voltage battery and the high-voltage cable connections. This can damage the electrical system and the high-voltage battery.• A parked vehicle that is not properly parked can roll away and cause accidents or severe injuries. When leaving the vehicle, always move theselector lever into Park (P) and engage the parking brake.• Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text messages can cause the vehicle to break down in traffic and result in a collision and seriouspersonal injury. • Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.• Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
– Always keep the filler nozzle completely inside the portable containerbefore and during filling.– If filling a portable container made of metal, the filler nozzle mustalways be in contact with the container. This will help prevent staticelectricity from discharging and causing a fire.– Always observe local and state or provincial laws about the use, storage,and transportation of portable fuel containers.– Make certain that the portable fuel container meets industry standards,such as ANSI/ASTM F852-86.• Driving with a fuel tank that is almost empty can lead to stalling in traffic, acollision, and serious personal injuries.• When the fuel tank is almost empty, fuel supply to the engine can beinterrupted, especially when driving over bumps, across slopes, and up anddown hills.• Steering and braking assistance as well as ESC and related systems will notwork if the engine “sputters” or stalls due to lack of fuel.• Always refuel when the tank is 1/4 full to reduce the risk of running out of fueland stalling in traffic.• Spilled fuel can cause fires, explosions, burns, and other severe injuries.• Always stop refueling once the pump nozzle switches off so that the tank doesnot overflow.• Improper refueling or handling of fuel can cause fire, explosion, and severeburns.• Fuel is highly explosive and flammable and can cause severe burns and otherinjuries.• Heed applicable safety warnings and obey local fuel handling regulations.• Always make sure the fuel cap is screwed on all the way.
