Tyre pressure
Follow the trailer manufacturer's recommendations concerning the tyre pressure for the trailer
tyres.
When towing a trailer, inflate the wheels on the towing vehicle with the maximum permitted tyre
pressure ⇒ Tyre pressure .

WARNING
Accidents and serious injuries can occur if you exceed the vehicle's maximum permitted gross axle
weight rating, drawbar load, gross vehicle weight rating or gross combination weight rating.

vehicle.

WARNING
Loads that may slide can severely impair stability and driving safety, which can cause accidents and
severe injuries.

Headlight adjustment
Towing a trailer can raise the front end of the vehicle enough for the dipped beam to dazzle other
road users. Use the headlight range control to lower the light cone as required. Vehicles with
dynamic headlight range control are adjusted automatically.
Things to note when driving with a trailer
If the trailer has an overrun brake, apply the brakes gently at first and then firmly. This will
prevent the jerking that can be caused by the trailer wheels locking.

trailer load and the increased combined towing weight of the vehicle and trailer.
When driving with this combination, drive particularly carefully and slowly.
Pulling off on slopes when towing a trailer
Depending on the steepness of the uphill gradient and the total weight of the trailer and vehicle, a
vehicle towing a trailer could roll back a short distance when moving off on a hill.
When towing a trailer, pull off on slopes as follows:

Recycling and scrapping end-of-life vehicles
Recycling end-of-life vehicles
Volkswagen has already made provision for you to recycle your vehicle in an environmentally
responsible manner. The extensive recycling systems operating in many European countries will take
back your vehicle at the end of its useful life. Once the vehicle has been recycled, a certificate of
destruction will be issued to show that the vehicle has been disposed of correctly.
Return of end-of-life vehicles is free of charge, provided that national legislation is complied with.
Further information on return and recycling of end-of-life vehicles is available from a Volkswagen
dealership.
Scrapping
The relevant safety requirements must be observed when the vehicle or its individual components,
e.g. from the airbag system and belt tensioners, are scrapped. Qualified workshops are familiar with
these regulations.
Information about vehicles with N1 approval (light commercial vehicle)
Please observe the following for vehicles used to transport goods with a maximum permitted weight
of up to 3.5 t (N1 approval in Europe):
Variants and number of seats
There are various types of N1 vehicles based on a Volkswagen passenger car. The number of seats
may be restricted to two or four.

Vehicles with two seats: there is no floor covering in the rear of the vehicle interior because there is
no rear bench seat ⇒ .
Vehicles with four seats: the centre seat on the rear bench seat cannot be used⇒ .
Transporting children safely
As with vehicles with passenger car approval (M1), approved child restraint systems can be used on
the seats ⇒ Safe transport of children .
Towing a trailer
If the vehicle is approved for towing a trailer, observe any local regulations for driving with a trailer
and using a towing bracket.
If the vehicle exceeds the gross vehicle weight rating or the rear axle load, do not exceed 80 km/h
when towing a trailer. This also applies to countries where higher speeds are permitted. Keep to
country-specific speed limits which may be lower for vehicles with trailers than for vehicles without
trailers.
The vehicle documents contain details of permitted excess loads. If no excess loads are shown, the
vehicle can be driven at 100 km/h, taking account of the laws which apply in different countries.

Notes on technical data
Unless otherwise indicated or separately listed, the technical data apply to the basic model. The
values may differ if additional equipment is fitted, for different model versions and for special
vehicles and in the case of country-specific vehicle specifications. All data in the official vehicle
documents take precedence over these data.
Engine
The vehicle data sticker and the official vehicle documents show which engine is installed in your
vehicle.
Weight
The values for the kerb weight in the following tables apply for the road-ready vehicle with driver
(75 kg), service fluids including fuel tank carrying 90% of its capacity and, where applicable, tools and
spare tyre ⇒ . Additional equipment and retrofitted accessories increase the stated kerb weight
and reduce the maximum permitted load accordingly.
The load comprises the weights of the following:

Performance figures
In certain vehicles with heavy duty running gear, the engine could be governed to provide a
maximum speed of 210 km/h.
The performance figures were measured without equipment which may negatively influence
performance, such as a roof carrier or mudflaps.
Gross combination weight
The specified gross combination weights are applicable only for altitudes up to 1,000 m above sea
level. The maximum gross combination weight must be reduced by approximately 10% for every
further started 1,000 m in altitude.
Notes on the tables
Gearbox abbreviations: MG = manual gearbox, AG = automatic gearbox, DSG® = DSG® dual clutch
gearbox. MG6 = 6-speed manual gearbox.

WARNING

Exceeding the maximum permissible weights, payload, dimensions, vehicle speeds and axle weight
ratings could cause damage to the vehicle, accidents and serious injuries.

braking distance of the vehicle. Adjust your speed accordingly.

NOTICE
The load should be distributed as evenly as possible in the vehicle. When transporting heavy objects
in the luggage compartment, they should be placed either in front of or over the rear axle in order to
minimise the effect on the vehicle's handling.
