First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
These lamps use LED technology. The LEDs cannot be replaced by customers. If some LEDs fail, this
may be an indication that more elements are on the point of failure. In this case, have the lights
checked and renewed if necessary at a qualified workshop. Volkswagen recommends using a
Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.

Changing a blown fuse
At the time of publication we are unable to provide an complete overview of the locations of the
fuses for the electrical consumers. This is because the vehicle is under constant development,
because fuses are assigned differently according to the vehicle equipment level and because several
electrical consumers may use a single fuse. You can obtain more information about the fuse
assignment from a Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers can share a single fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could have more
than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced when the cause of the fault has been rectified. If a new fuse
blows shortly after fitting, have the electrical system checked by a qualified workshop.
WARNING
High voltages in the electrical system can cause electric shocks, serious burns and death.
WARNING
Using unsuitable or repaired fuses and bridging an electrical circuit without fuses can cause a fire
and serious injuries.

The table shows the fuse locations of the electrical consumers relevant for the driver. The first
column in the table contains the location. The other columns contain the fuse type, the amp rating
and the consumer protected by the fuse.
Depending on the market and specification of your vehicle, the fuse numbers and positions may
differ to those given in the table. If necessary, ask your Volkswagen dealership for the exact fuse
assignment.

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.

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:
