• Observe the operating instructions for any device that you plug into the socket.
• Never exceed the maximum power rating as this could damage the whole vehicle electrical system.
• Only use accessories that have been ap-proved in accordance with valid guidelines concerning electromagnetic compatibility.
CD
• Never feed electricity Into the socket.
• Do not plug any heavy devices or connec-tions, such as mains adapters, directly Into the socket.
• Only connect devices to the socket with a voltage that matches the voltage of the socket.
• 230-volt socket with inverter switch:
-Do not connect any lights which use neon tubes.
-With electrical devices that require a high level of current In the start phase, the built-In excess current switch will prevent the de-vice from being switched on. If this hap-pens, disconnect the device from the power supply and reconnect after waiting approxi-mately 10 seconds.

Displays for the Climatronic information
Depending on the vehicle equipment level, infor-mation on the Climatronic is displayed briefly on the screen of the factory-fitted radio or navigation system.
The dust and pollen filter
The dust and pollen filter with activated charcoal reduces the level of impurities in the outside air en-tering the vehicle.
The dust and pollen filler must be changed regular-ly to avoid impairing the performance of the air conditioning system.
The dust and pollen filter must be changed more frequently than stated in the service schedule if the efficiency of the filter declines prematurely due to the vehicle being used in areas with high levels of air pollution.
Additional information and warnings:
• Exterior views 5
• Wipers/washer 116
• Supplementary heaters (auxiliary air heater or auxiliary coolant heater) 332
• Cleaning and caring for the vehicle exterior 380
A WARNING
Poor visibility through all windows increases the risk of collisions and accidents, which can cause serious injuries.
• Always ensure that all windows are free of ice, snow and mist to ensure good visibility.
3221 While driving
A WARNING (Continued)
• Maximum heat output, which Is needed to defrost the windows as quickly as possible, is only available when the engine has reached Its operating temperature. Do not start your journey until you have good visibil-Ity.
• Always ensure that the heating and fresh air system or the air conditioning system and the rear window heating are used correctly so that you have good visibility.
• Never use the air reclrculatlon mode for an extended period. If the cooling system Is switched off, the windows can mist up very quickly In air reclrculatlon mode and reduce visibility considerably.
• Always switch off the air reclrculatlon mode when it Is not required.
A WARNING
Stale air can quickly make the driver tired and affect their concentration, which In turn can cause collisions, accidents and serious Inju-ries.
• Never switch off the blowers or switch on the air recirculatlon mode for an extended pe· riod as this prevents fresh air from entering the vehicle interior.
• Repairs to the air conditioning system re-quire specialist knowledge and special tools. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends using a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles deal-ership for this purpose.
