Notes on vehicle care
Regular, expert care helps to maintain your vehicle.
The longer contamination or dirt is left on the surface of vehicle components and upholstery fabrics,
the more difficult it can become to clean and treat them. Extended exposure may mean that it is no
longer possible to remove contamination or dirt.
Volkswagen recommend using Genuine care products that have been matched to your vehicle.1)
Consult a qualified workshop if you have any specific questions or if vehicle parts are not listed.

WARNING
Incorrect care and cleaning of vehicle components can impair the safety features of the vehicle and
cause serious injury.

specifications
Modifications and repairs to the front bumper, doors, front seats, headliner or the bodywork should
be carried out only by a qualified workshop. Airbag system components and sensors might be fitted
on these vehicle components.
If you work on the airbag system or remove and install parts of the system when performing other
repair work, parts of the airbag system may be damaged. The consequence may be that, in the event
of an accident, the airbag inflates incorrectly or does not inflate at all.
Regulations must be observed to ensure that the effectiveness of the airbags is not reduced and that
removed parts do not cause any injuries or environmental pollution. Qualified workshops are
familiar with these regulations.
Any modifications to the vehicle's suspension could prevent the airbag system from working
properly during a collision. For example, using wheel rim/tyre combinations that have not been
approved by Volkswagen, lowering the suspension or making modifications to the suspension rate
including work on the springs, struts and shock absorbers etc., could change the forces that are
measured by the airbag sensors and sent to the electronic control unit. Some changes to the
suspension could cause the forces measured by the sensors to increase, for example. This can lead
to the airbag system being triggered in collision scenarios where it normally would not be triggered if
modifications to the suspension had not been made. Other modifications can cause the forces
measured by the sensors to decrease, therefore preventing the airbag system from being triggered
when it should have been.

WARNING
Incorrect repairs and modifications can cause malfunctions and damage to the vehicle and impair
the effectiveness of the airbag system. This can result in accidents and serious or even fatal injuries.

WARNING
Modifications to the vehicle's suspension, including the use of unsuitable tyre/rim combinations, can
