Fig. 207 In the luggage compartment lid: Removing the bulb holder.

Please carry out each step only in the order specified:
5. Replace burned out bulbs with new bulbs that are identical to
the ones being replaced.
6. Insert the bulb holder in the taillight and turn it approximately
30° clockwise. The bulb holder must click into place.
7. Insert the cover. The cover must lock into place and be se-
cure.

LEDs in the taillights in the luggage compartment lid
LEDs cannot be replaced. Contact your authorized Volkswagen deal-
er or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.
Different models may have different lights, and the location and
design of covers, bulb holders, and bulbs may be in a different loca-
tion than shown in the illustrations.
Replacing taillight bulbs in the vehicle body

jump-start terminal6 ⇒ Positive jump start terminal, 3.6 liter engine,
⇒ fig. 210 (+).
3. Attach one end of the red jumper cable to the positive terminal (+)
of the dead battery: (1) ⇒ .
4. Attach the other end of the red jumper cable to the positive termi-
nal (+) of the good battery (booster battery): (2).
5. Attach one end of the black jumper cable to the negative terminal
(-) of the booster battery: (2) ⇒ fig. 211.
6. Attach the other end of the black jumper cable (3) to a bare metal
part of the vehicle with the dead battery. This part should be
connected directly to the engine block. You may also attach the
cable to the engine block itself. Attach the clamp to a point that is
as far away as possible from the dead battery (1) ⇒ .
7. Route the jumper cables so that they cannot get caught in any
moving parts in the engine compartment of either vehicle.
Starting the engine
Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery that is provid-
ing help and let it run at idle speed.
Turn on the ignition of the vehicle with the dead battery. If the en-
gine starts, wait 2 to 3 minutes until it “runs smoothly” before remov-
ing the jumper cables as described below ⇒ . If the engine does not
start within about 10 seconds, turn off the ignition and wait at least
1 minute; then try again.
Before removing the jumper cables
Switch off the headlights (if they are on).
In the vehicle with the dead battery, switch on the heater fan and
the rear window defroster. This helps to minimize voltage spikes
when the cables are disconnected.
Removing jumper cables
With the engine running, remove the jumper cables in reverse order
to the way they were connected.
1. Disconnect the black (-) cable from the vehicle with the dead bat-
tery.

WARNING
Improper use of jumper cables when jump-starting a vehicle
with a dead battery can cause the battery to explode, leading to
serious personal injury. To help reduce the risk of battery ex-
plosion:
All work on the batteries or the electrical system in your ve-
hicle can cause serious acid burns, fires, or electrical shocks.
Always read and heed the following WARNINGS and safety pre-
cautions before working on the batteries or the electrical sys-
tem ⇒  Vehicle battery.
Always wear proper eye protection. Never lean over the vehi-
cle battery.
Attach the jumper cables in the correct order: first the posi-
tive cable, then the negative cable.
Never connect the negative cable from the vehicle providing
starting assistance to parts of the fuel system or to the brake
hoses or brake lines.
Never allow the non-insulated parts of the battery clamps to
touch.
Never allow the jumper cable attached to the positive battery
terminal to contact metal parts of the vehicle.
Check the battery acid level indicator window on the vehicle
battery. Use a flashlight, never a match, cigarette lighter, or
other open flame. If you cannot see the color of the window
clearly, or if it is light yellow or colorless, do not jump-start the
vehicle. Get expert assistance.
Avoid electrostatic discharge in the vicinity of the vehicle
battery. Sparks may cause the hydrogen gas escaping from the
vehicle battery to ignite.
Never jump-start a vehicle with a battery that is damaged or
frozen or that was frozen and has thawed. The battery can ex-
plode. Replace the battery instead.
Always follow the instructions of the jumper cable manufac-
turer.
Always make sure that the battery providing starting assis-
tance has the same voltage as the dead battery (12 V) and
about the same capacity (see battery label).

Since power steering does not work when the engine is switched
off, more effort is needed to steer the vehicle.
Since the brake booster also does not work when the engine is
stopped, you will need to press harder on the brake pedal to slow
down or stop. Do not hit the towing vehicle.
Read and heed the information and WARNINGS in the towing ve-
hicle's owner's manual.
As the driver of the towing vehicle:
Drive especially carefully and accelerate gently. Avoid sudden driv-
ing maneuvers.
Brake earlier and more gently than usual and with light pedal pres-
sure.
Read and heed the information and WARNINGS in the owner's
manual of the vehicle being towed.
