a)
Use of engine oil compliant with the VW 504 00 specification instead of VW 508 00 may have a slight negative effect on the vehicle’s exhaust gas values.
b) If the quality of the fuel available in the country does not fulfil the EN 228 (for petrol) and EN 590 (for diesel) standards.
c) Only use recommended oils, otherwise you may damage the engine.

Coolant specifications
The engine cooling system is supplied from
the factory with a specially treated mixture of
water and at least 40 % of the additive G13
(TL-VW 774 J), purple. This mixture gives the
necessary frost protection down to -25°C
(-13°F) and protects the light alloy parts of
the engine cooling system against corrosion.
It also prevents scaling and considerably rai-
ses the boiling point of the coolant.
To protect the cooling system, the percentage
of additive must always be at least 40 %,
even in warm climates where anti-freeze pro-
tection is not required. If for weather reasons further protection is
neces
sary, the proportion of additive may be
increased, but only up to 60 %; otherwise an-
tifreeze protection will diminish and this will
worsen cooling.
When the coolant is topped up, use a mixture
of distilled water and at least 40 % of the
G13 or G12 plus-plus (TL-VW 774 G) additive
(both are purple) to obtain an optimum anti-
corrosion protection ››› in Topping up cool-
ant on p ag

. The mixture of G13 with
G12 plus (TL-VW 774 F), G12 (red) or G11
(green-blue) engine coolants will significant-
ly reduce anti-corrosion protection and
should therefore be avoided ››› in Topping

General information The steering wheel includes a multifunction
modul

om where it is possible to control
the audio, telephone and radio/navigation
functions without needing to distract the
driver.
There are two versions of the multifunction
module:
● Audio system + telephone without voice
contr o

l version (MID) : for controlling the au-
dio functions available (radio, audio CD,
MP3, iPod ®1)
, USB 1)
, SD 1)
) and Bluetooth sys-
tem from the steering wheel.
● Audio system + telephone with voice con-
trol
version (HIGH) : for controlling the audio
functions available (radio, audio CD, MP3,
iPod ®1)
, USB 1)
, SD 1)
) and Bluetooth system
from the steering wheel. 1)

Operation
Note
Food, medicine and other heat or cold sensi-
tive o b
jects should never be placed in front of
the air outlets as they may be damaged or
made unsuitable for use by the air coming
from the air vents. Air recirculation 
Air recirculation prevents unpleasant smells,
e.g. when p
a

ssing through a tunnel or in
queuing traffic, from entering the interior.
If the air distribution is in the thaw position,
the recirculation flap will always be open (in-
dicator light off).
If the air distribution is switched from any po-
sition to the thaw position, recirculation will
be automatically deactivated. Connecting the recirculation
In any
air di

stribution position except thaw:
● Press button , the button’s
lamp will
light up, indicating that air recirculation in-
side the vehicle has been activated.
Disconnecting the recirculation
In any air distribution position except thaw:
● Press button  again and the butt
on's
lamp will go off, indicating that air entry from
the outside has been activated.
In the thaw position  the entry of air into
the vehicle interior is always from the out-
side. WARNING
In air recirculation mode, no cold air from the
outs ide ent

ers the vehicle interior. If the air
conditioner is switched off, the windows can quickly mist over. Therefore, never leave the
air rec
ir

culation mode switched on for a long
time (risk of accident). Note
● When en gagin

g reverse gear, the air recir-
culation is connected automatically to pre-
vent the entrance of exhaust gases in the ve-
hicle on travelling backwards. The control
lamp on the button  does not light up.
● If the temperature regulator is turned to the
col
dest setting (blue point) and the  button
is on, the “Air recirculation” function is auto-
matically activated in order to cool the vehi-
cle faster using less energy, and its control
lamp will light up.
● If the function is not deactivated by press-
ing the butt
on, it will deactivate after approx-
imately 20 minutes. 160
