Checklist
In some countries, special safety standards and emissions-related legislation apply that may differ
from the build status of the vehicle. Volkswagen recommends that you visit your Volkswagen
dealership before travelling abroad to find out about any legal requirements and the following issues
at your destination:

Does the vehicle need any technical modifications for driving abroad, e.g. masking or switching the
headlights over?

Are the necessary tools, diagnosis equipment and spare parts available for service and repair work?

not only about vehicle maintenance it also ensures that your vehicle
remains roadworthy and in perfect working order. You should therefore have your vehicle serviced
according to the Volkswagen guidelines. Some work may have to be carried out before the date of
the next service if the vehicle is subjected to severe operating conditions. Severe operating
conditions are, for example, regular stop-and-go driving or driving in areas with high levels of dust.
Further information can be obtained from your Volkswagen dealership or qualified workshop.

Number of seats
The vehicle has a total of five seats: two at the front and three at the rear.
Each seat is equipped with a seat belt.

WARNING
Assuming an incorrect sitting position in the vehicle can increase the risk of severe or fatal injuries
during a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre in the event of a collision or accident or if the airbags
are triggered.
All vehicle occupants must assume a correct sitting position before setting off and maintain this
position throughout the trip. This also applies for the fastening of seat belts.
The number of vehicle occupants must never exceed the number of seats with seat belts in the
vehicle.
Always secure children in the vehicle in an authorised child restraint system which is suitable for
their height and weight Safe transport of childrenand Airbag system
Always keep your feet in the footwell while the vehicle is in motion. Never place your feet on the
seat or dash panel, for example, and never ride with your feet out of the window. The airbag and
seat belt can otherwise not provide optimal protection and can actually increase the risk of injury
during an accident.
Dangers of assuming an incorrect sitting position
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
If the seat belts are not worn or are worn incorrectly, the risk of severe or fatal injuries increases.
Seat belts can provide optimal protection only if seat belt routing is correct. An incorrect sitting
position considerably impairs the level of protection provided by a seat belt. This could lead to
severe or even fatal injuries. The risk of severe or fatal injuries is especially increased when a

qualified workshop
compatible with the vehicle, equipment level and model year. Volkswagen recommends using a
Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.

WARNING
Incorrectly fastened or unfastened seat belts increase the risk of severe or fatal injuries. Seat belts
will only offer the optimum level of protection when they are fastened and used properly.
Seat belts are the most effective means of reducing the risk of serious and fatal injuries in the event
of an accident. Seat belts must always be fastened properly when the vehicle is in motion to protect
the driver and all vehicle occupants.

Regularly check the condition of all seat belts.

Keep the seat belts clean.

Avoid allowing any foreign bodies or fluids to get on to the seat belt or latch plate or into the slot for
the seat belt buckle.

Do not trap or damage the seat belt and latch plate, for example when closing the door.

Never remove, modify or repair the seat belt or belt anchorage elements.

Always fasten the seat belt correctly before any journey and wear it properly while the vehicle is in
motion.
Twisted seat belt
If it is difficult to pull the seat belt out of the belt guide, the seat belt may have become twisted in
the side trim as a result of being retracted too quickly when unfastened:
Take hold of the latch plate, then slowly and carefully pull out the seat belt fully.
Untwist the seat belt and guide it back slowly by hand.
Fasten the seat belt even if you are unable to undo the twist. However, the twist should not be in
part of the seat belt which comes into direct contact with the body. The twist should be corrected
immediately by a qualified workshop.

WARNING
Using seat belts incorrectly increases the risk of severe or fatal injuries.
Regularly check to ensure that the seat belt and its related parts are in perfect condition.
Always keep the seat belt clean.
Do not allow the belt webbing to become jammed, damaged or to rub on any sharp edges.
Always keep the latch plate and slot in the buckle free from foreign bodies and liquids.
