WARNING
The intelligent technology used in the Driver Alert System cannot overcome the laws of physics, and
functions only within the limits of the system. Do not let the extra convenience afforded by the
Driver Alert System tempt you into taking any risks when driving. During a long trip, plan regular and
sufficient breaks.
The driver is responsible at all times for their fitness to drive.
Never drive a vehicle when you are tired.
The system cannot always detect the driver's level of alertness. Observe the information in the
Function limitations section.
In certain situations, the system may wrongly interpret intentional driving manoeuvres as a lack of
alertness from the driver.
No urgent warning will be given in the event of the phenomenon known as microsleep.
Observe the information in the instrument cluster display and act according to the commands.

The Driver Alert System has been developed for use only while driving on motorways and good
roads.

If there is a system fault, go to a qualified workshop and have the system checked.

Safety

Before every trip, each vehicle occupant must adopt the correct sitting position, correctly fasten the
seat belt belonging to their seat and keep it fastened properly throughout the trip. This applies to all
vehicle occupants and also in urban traffic.
While the vehicle is in motion, secure all children travelling in the vehicle in a restraint system
suitable for their weight and height. They must also wear correctly fastened seat belts ⇒ Safe
transport of children .
Drive off only when all passengers have correctly fastened their seat belts.
Never insert the latch plate into a buckle which does not belong to the corresponding seat and
always ensure it engages properly. Using a buckle which does not belong to the seat you are
occupying reduces the level of protection and can lead to severe injuries.
Never let any foreign bodies or liquids get into the slots for the belt buckles. This could prevent the
belt buckle and seat belt from working properly.
Never unfasten the seat belt while the vehicle is in motion.
Never allow more than one person to share the same seat belt.
Never travel when children or babies are being carried on somebody's lap and fastened with the
same belt.
Never travel wearing loose, bulky clothing (such as an overcoat over a jacket). This could prevent the
seat belts from fitting and functioning properly.

WARNING
Damaged seat belts are very dangerous and could cause severe or fatal injuries.
Never damage the belt by trapping it in the door or in the seat mechanism.
If the belt webbing or any other part of the seat belt becomes damaged, the seat belts may tear
during an accident or sudden braking manoeuvre.
Have damaged seat belts immediately replaced by new seat belts that have been approved by
Volkswagen for the vehicle. Seat belts subjected to stress and stretched during an accident must be
replaced by a qualified workshop. Renewal may be necessary even if there is no apparent damage.
The belt anchorage should also be checked.
Never try to repair, modify or remove the seat belts yourself. All repairs to the seat belts, belt
retractors and buckles must be carried out by a qualified workshop.
Warning lamp

Using seat belts ⇒ :

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.
