Unlocking the boot lid manually
Turn the lock of the warning triangle holder 90° anticlockwise ⇒ Fig. 64 .

Troubleshooting
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
Boot lid cannot be opened or closed
Check whether the boot lid is blocked by an obstacle. The boot lid can be moved by hand. You will
need to use increased force for this.
The drive switches off automatically in order to prevent overheating if the boot lid is operated too
frequently in a short space of time. Until the drive has cooled down, the boot lid can be opened and
closed by hand using more force than usual.
When you tow a trailer, the electrical boot lid can only be opened and closed on the boot lid
⇒ Trailer towing .
The boot lid must be closed by hand if the 12-volt vehicle battery or fuse is disconnected or faulty.
All turn signals flash four times
The vehicle key used last is still in the vehicle.
Boot lid is stiff
At outside temperatures below freezing point, the opening mechanism cannot always lift the
partially opened boot lid automatically. In this case, guide the boot lid further up by hand.

WARNING
Incorrect use of turn signals, a failure to use turn signals, or forgetting to switch off a turn signal can
confuse other road users. This could lead to accidents and serious injuries.
Always activate the turn signal in good time when changing lanes and performing overtaking or
turning manoeuvres.
Always switch off the turn signal once the lane change or overtaking or turning manoeuvre has been
completed.

The hazard warning lights also work when the ignition is switched off ⇒ In an emergency .

Some settings can be stored in the user accounts of the personalisation function and therefore
change when the user account changes ⇒ Personalisation .

The cooling system cannot be switched on or its function is restricted
The cooling system functions only when the engine is running and at ambient temperatures above
+3°C (+38°F).
The cooling system is switched off when the engine is very warm.
Switch on the blower.
Check the fuse of the air conditioning system ⇒ Fuses in the dash panel .

If the fault persists, seek expert assistance.
The heating and fresh air system cannot be switched on or its function is restricted
The heating and defrost function are more effective when the engine is warm.
If the fault persists, seek expert assistance.
Condensation on the windows
Keep the air intake in front of the windscreen free of ice, snow or leaves in order to improve heating
and cooling performance ⇒ Vehicle care .
Do not cover the air vents in the rear of the luggage compartment to allow air to flow through the
vehicle from the front to the rear.
Press the button or turn the rotary knob to position in order to switch on the defrost
function ⇒ .
The wrong unit of temperature is set
Change the unit of temperature for all temperature displays in the vehicle using the Infotainment
system ⇒ Infotainment system controls and displays .
Change the unit of temperature in the instrument cluster menu ⇒ Instrument cluster .
Water under the vehicle
If the humidity and temperature outside the vehicle are high, condensation can drip off the
evaporator of the cooling system and form a pool underneath the vehicle. This is normal and does
not indicate a leak!
If the outside humidity is high and the outside temperature low, condensation may evaporate when
the auxiliary heater is running ⇒ Auxiliary heater and ventilation . If this is the case, steam may
appear underneath the vehicle. This is not a sign that the vehicle is damaged.

WARNING
Poor visibility through all windows increases the risk of collisions and accidents, which can cause
serious injuries.

Manual gearbox: select a gear Manual gearbox: selecting a gear.

Allow the orientation lighting to go out Coming Home and Leaving Home function (orientation
lighting).

Leave the defective bulbs to cool down.

Check to see if a fuse has visibly blown Changing fuses.

Follow the instructions to change the affected bulb . Always replace bulbs with identical bulbs of the
same type. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on the base.

Replace the defective bulb with a new bulb of the same type.
Insert the bulb holder into the headlight and turn it clockwise as far as it will go.
Connect the connector to the bulb holder. The connector must audibly click into place.
Push the headlight from the outside into the openings and insert into the bumper.
Use the screwdriver to tighten the securing screws ⇒ Fig. 169  ①.
Fit the cover in the bumper ⇒ Fig. 169 .
Stow the wire hook and screwdriver in the vehicle toolkit.
Changing bulbs in the tail light clusters (LED lights)
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
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 fuses
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Fuses in the dash panel 

⇒ Fuses in the engine compartment 
⇒ Fuse table for fuses in the dash panel 
⇒ Fuse tables for fuses in the engine compartment 
⇒ 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.
fuse with the same amp rating (same colour and markings) and size.



NOTICE
electrical consumers off and remove the vehicle key from the ignition before changing a fuse.

boxes can damage the electrical system.

There are other fuses in the vehicle in addition to those described in this chapter. These should be
changed only by a qualified workshop.
