has been selected. The vehicle could move suddenly or something unexpected may happen that may
cause damage, fire and serious injuries.
Never use a start booster. Start boosters could explode and cause the engine to suddenly run at high
revs.

WARNING
Never leave the engine running if you leave the vehicle unattended, particularly if a gear or position
has been selected. The vehicle could move suddenly or something unexpected may happen that may
cause damage, fire or serious injuries.

WARNING
Start boosters could explode or cause the engine to suddenly run at high revs.
Never use a start booster.

NOTICE
The starter and the engine can be damaged if you attempt to start the engine while the vehicle is in
motion or if the engine is started again immediately after it has been switched off.
When the engine is cold, avoid high engine speeds, driving at full throttle and overloading the
engine.
Do not push start or tow start the vehicle. Unburnt fuel could damage the catalytic converter.

NOTICE
If the engine does not start, never use the starter with a gear selected and the vehicle key in the
ignition lock in position Fig.
0for driving or tow-starting, e.g. when the fuel tank is empty.
This could cause damage to the starter.

If the engine does not start, seek expert assistance.

Do not warm up the engine by running it while the vehicle is stationary. Instead, pull off as soon as
there is good visibility through the windows. This helps the engine reach operating temperature
faster and reduces emissions.

stopped using the foot brake
Pull the button. The vehicle brakes hard. A signal tone can be heard at the same time.

WARNING
Incorrect use of the electronic parking brake can cause accidents and serious injuries.
Never use the electronic parking brake to brake the vehicle, except in emergencies. The braking
distance is considerably longer as only the rear wheels are braked. Always use the foot brake.

WARNING
Failing to park the vehicle properly before leaving it may result in the vehicle rolling away. This can
cause accidents, serious injuries and damage to property.
Always park the vehicle in the specified order Parking
Ensure that the electronic parking brake is switched on before you leave the vehicle and the
indicator lamp in the instrument cluster lights up red after you switch off the ignition.
Troubleshooting
Fault in electronic parking brake
The indicator lamp lights up yellow. Go to a qualified workshop or a Volkswagen dealership.
Electronic parking brake does not switch off
The prerequisites for switch off are not met.
OR: the 12-volt vehicle battery is discharged.
Check whether all requirements for switching off the electronic parking brake are met Switching

Noises from the electronic parking brake
You may hear noises when the electronic parking brake is switched on and off.
If the electronic parking brake has not been used for a long period, the system will carry out
occasional automatic and audible checks when the vehicle is parked.

Periodic regeneration
The soot in the particulate filter is burnt off at high temperatures on a periodic basis.
To assist the regeneration of the particulate filter, Volkswagen recommends that you avoid making
only short journeys.
Noises, slight smells and increased engine speeds may occur during regeneration. The radiator fan
may run on while the vehicle is moving or when the engine has been switched off.

During the periodic regeneration process, the yellow indicator lamp does not light up.

Jump starting

Introduction

Jump lead connection point (earth connection)
Jump starting the vehicle
If the engine fails to start because the 12-volt vehicle battery is flat, the discharged battery can be
connected to the 12-volt battery of another vehicle to start the engine.
Suitable jump leads are needed for jump starting.
2 for vehicles with petrol engines.


WARNING
Using the jump leads incorrectly or performing the jump start procedure incorrectly can cause the
12-volt vehicle battery to explode, which can lead to severe injuries. Please note the following in
order to reduce the risk of the 12-volt vehicle battery exploding:

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
There is a jump lead connection point (earth connection) in the engine compartment for connecting

The discharged 12-volt vehicle battery must be properly connected to the vehicle's electrical system.
The vehicles must not touch. Otherwise electricity could flow as soon as the positive terminals are
connected.
Ensure that the battery clamps have good metal-to-metal contact with the battery terminals.
If the engine does not start immediately, switch off the starter after about 10 seconds and try again
after about a minute.
If the engine still does not start, seek expert assistance.
Attaching the jump leads
The jump leads should be connected only in the order A B C DFig. 177
The black jump lead should never be connected to the negative terminal (-volt vehicle
battery. Connecting the lead to the negative terminal can cause incorrect condition evaluation of the
12-volt vehicle battery in the vehicle electronics.
