WARNING
Improper use of the steering column adjustment feature can
result in serious personal injury and even death.
Always pull the lever (1) firmly upward after adjusting the
steering column so that the steering wheel does not change
position suddenly while the vehicle is moving.
Never adjust the steering column while the vehicle is moving.
If you find that you need to adjust the steering wheel while driv-
ing, stop the vehicle in a safe place and make the proper ad-
justment.
Never adjust the steering wheel so that it points toward your
face. Always make sure that the steering wheel points toward
your chest. Otherwise, the airbag system cannot protect you
properly in the event of a crash.
Always hold the steering wheel on the outside of the steering
wheel rim with your hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi-
tions to help reduce the risk of serious personal injury if the
driver's airbag inflates.
Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position or
with your hands anywhere inside the steering wheel or on the
steering wheel hub. Holding the steering wheel the wrong way
increases the risk of severe injury to the arms, hands, and head
if the driver airbag deploys.

d Check the condition of all safety belts regularly.
d Keep safety belts clean.
d Keep objects and liquids away from safety belt webbing, the safety
belt buckle tongue, and the safety belt buckle latch and opening.
d Do not pinch or damage the safety belt or buckle tongue (for in-
stance, when closing a door).
d Never modify, disassemble or try to repair safety belts and safety
belt anchorages.
d Always fasten your safety belt properly before driving and keep it
fastened whenever the vehicle is moving.
Twisted safety belt
If it is difficult to pull the safety belt out of the belt guide, the belt may
be twisted inside the side trim because the belt retracted too quickly
when it was taken off.
Hold the safety belt tongue, slowly and carefully pull safety belt all
the way out.
Untwist the safety belt and slowly return the belt by hand.
If you cannot untwist the safety belt, wear it anyway. Make sure that
the safety belt is twisted in a spot where it does not come in direct
contact with your body. Have the safety belt untwisted immediately by
an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility.
Lockable safety belt
The retractors for the rear seat safety belts and the front passenger
safety belt have a switchable locking feature for child restraints in
addition to the emergency locking feature. Whenever a child restraint
is installed with a safety belt, the safety belt must be locked so that
the safety belt webbing cannot unreel. The switchable locking feature
lets you lock the belt so that a child restraint can be properly installed
and, for example, so that it can't tip to the side when the vehicle goes
around a corner ⇒  Child safety and child restraints.
To see whether a safety belt is lockable, pull the safety belt all the
way out of the safety belt retractor. You should then hear a “clicking”
sound as the belt winds back into the retractor reel. Test the switcha-
ble locking feature by pulling on the belt. When the switchable locking

feature is active, you should no longer be able to pull the belt out of
the retractor.
The locking feature must be deactivated when a vehicle occupant
uses the safety belt.
WARNING
Improper use and care of safety belts increases the risk of se-
vere personal injury or death.
Regularly check safety belts and related parts for damage.
Damaged safety belts must be replaced; they cannot be re-
paired.
Always keep safety belts clean.
Never catch, damage or chafe safety belt webbing on sharp
edges.
Always keep objects and liquids away from the belt buckle
and buckle opening.
Fastening and unfastening safety belts

tender and the centerline of the person using the safety belt ex-
tender. The distance must be more than 6 inches (15 cm)!
(C) Centerline of the person using the safety belt extender.
Using a safety belt extender
Adjust both the seat and the head restraint properly ⇒ Adjusting the
seating position.
Insert the buckle tongue on the safety belt extender ⇒ fig. 70 (2)
into the vehicle belt buckle for the seat where the safety belt extender
is being used (1).
Fastening or unfastening the vehicle safety belt ⇒ Fastening and
unfastening safety belts.
Pull the belt to make sure that the tongues are securely locked in
the buckles.
Make sure that the safety belt is positioned properly ⇒ Safety belt
position.
Properly using safety belt extenders:
Use a safety belt extender only when the factory installed safety
belt is too short when worn properly by a person in proper seating
position.
Only use 1 safety belt extender per seat and vehicle safety belt.
Always remove the safety belt extender when it is not needed.
Never leave a safety belt extender attached to the vehicle safety
belt buckle when the extender is not needed and being used with the
safety belt. Otherwise, the airbag control module will receive an incor-
rect signal from the safety belt buckle and this will prevent the airbag
from working properly for a person who is not using the safety belt.
Leaving the extender attached to the safety belt buckle when the front
seat is occupied and the safety belt is not being used will signal the
airbag control unit during a collision that the front passenger seat is
