Fuel
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Petrol
⇒ Natural gas
Different engines require different fuels. The factory-fitted sticker on the inside of the tank flap
indicates the fuel type that is required for your particular vehicle.
Volkswagen recommends using low-sulphur or sulphur-free fuels, to help reduce fuel consumption
and prevent damage to the engine.
If the engine is not running smoothly or begins to judder, this can indicate poor or inadequate fuel
quality, e.g. water in the fuel. If these symptoms appear, reduce the vehicle speed immediately and
drive to the nearest qualified workshop at medium engine speeds, avoiding high engine loading. If
these symptoms occur immediately after the vehicle has been refuelled, switch the engine off as
soon as it is safe to do so and seek expert assistance. This can help to prevent further damage.

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Petrol types
Vehicles with a petrol engine must be run on unleaded petrol in compliance with the European
standard EN 228 or DIN 51626-1 ⇒. Fuels with a maximum ethanol content of 10% (E10) can
be used for refuelling.
Petrol types are categorised according to their octane number, e.g. 91, 95, 98 or 99 RON (RON =
Research Octane Number). The vehicle may be filled with petrol that has a higher octane number
Incorrect handling of fuel can cause explosions, fire and serious burns and injuries.
•Fuel is highly explosive and inflammable.
•Never handle fuel near open flames, sparks or glowing matter (e.g. cigarettes).
•Keep naked flames, hot parts and sparks at a safe distance.
•Switch off your mobile telephone or two-way radio when dealing with fuel. Electromagnetic
radiation can generate sparks which can in turn start a fire.
•Avoid electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic radiation in the direct vicinity of fuels.
•Never spill fuel in the vehicle or in the luggage compartment.
•Comply with any relevant safety information and legislation concerning the handling of
fuels.
WARNING

If possible, only use Volkswagen-approved engine oil ⇒. The engine oils listed are multigrade
high-lubricity oils.
Engine oils are constantly being developed and improved. A Volkswagen dealership is always kept
up to date on innovations. Volkswagen therefore recommends having engine oil changes done by a
Volkswagen dealership.
The quality of the engine oil is not only tailored to the requirements of engines and exhaust gas
treatment systems, but also to fuel quality. Due to the way in which a combustion engine works,
engine oil always comes into contact with combustion residues and fuel, which has a knock-on
effect on the ageing process of the oil.
The quality of fuels can vary greatly between individual markets and this must be taken into account
when selecting the correct engine oil.
The use of engine oils compliant with the VW 504 00 requires a fuel quality compliant with EN 228
(petrol) or fuel of and equivalent quality. Engine oils compliant with VW 504 00 are therefore
unsuitable for use in a large number of markets.

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
a)
•Do not add any additional lubricants to the engine oil. Any damage caused by the use of
such additives is not covered by the warranty.
•Only engine oil specifications that have been approved for use with the engine should be
used. Using other engine oils can cause engine damage.
•Another engine oil can be used in the event of an emergency if the listed engine oils () are
not available. To avoid damaging the engine, a maximum quantity of 0.5 litres of the
following engine oil may be used only once until the next oil change:
- Petrol engines: standards ACEAA3/B4 or API SN (API SM).

Cleaning upholstery on seat cushions with seat heating, electrically
adjustable seats, or seats containing airbag components
Airbag-related components and electrical connectors may be installed in the driver seat, passenger
seat and sometimes also in the rear outer seats. Seat cushions or backrests that are damaged,
incorrectly cleaned or treated, or that become wet, may cause damage to the vehicle electrics or
trigger a fault in the airbag system ⇒.
Electrical components and connectors are installed in electrically adjustable seats and seat
cushions with seat heating. These can be damaged if cleaned or treated incorrectly ⇒. This can
also result in damage to other parts of the vehicle electrics.
For this reason, please follow these cleaning guidelines:
•Do not use high-pressure cleaners, steam cleaners or coolant spray.
•Do not use washing paste or fine detergent solutions.
•Avoid getting the seat wet.
•Only use detergents that have been approved by Volkswagen.
•If in doubt, consult a specialist cleaning company.
Cleaning upholstery on seat cushions without seat heating, seats that are
not electrically adjustable, and seats that do not contain airbag components
•Please read and follow the instructions, notes and warnings on the package before using
cleaning products.
•Upholstery, fabric trims, Alcantara seat covers and carpeting should be cleaned regularly with
a vacuum cleaner (brush).
•Do not use high-pressure cleaners, steam cleaners or coolant spray.
•We recommend that you use a soft sponge or commercially available lint-free microfibre cloth
for cleaning jobs ⇒.
•Clean Alcantara surfaces with a slightly damp cotton or woollen cloth or a commercially
available lint-free microfibre cloth ⇒.
General surface soiling of the upholstery and fabric trim can be cleaned with a commercially
available foam cleaner.
If the upholstery and fabric trims are generally heavily soiled, consult a Volkswagen dealership for
information on suitable cleaning methods before attempting any cleaning. If required, take the
vehicle to a specialist cleaning company.
Treating stains
When treating stains, it may be necessary to clean the entire surface and not just the stain itself.
This particularly applies if the surface shows general signs of wear. The cleaned area could
otherwise be lighter than the surrounding area. If in doubt, consult a specialist cleaning company.
Type of stainRecommended cleaning method for seat cushions
and upholstery
Water-based stains, e.g.
coffee, fruit juice.
– Moisten a sponge using a spray bottle and treat the stain by
rubbing it in a circular motion.
– Wipe with a dry absorbent cloth.
Stubborn stains, e.g.
chocolate, foundation.
– Only use detergents approved by Volkswagen.
– If required, take the vehicle to a specialist cleaning firm to have the
upholstery cleaned.
Oily stains, e.g. oil,
lipstick.
– Only use detergents approved by Volkswagen.
– If required, take the vehicle to a specialist cleaning firm to have the
upholstery cleaned.

If there is a fault in the airbag system, the airbag may not function properly, or not function at
all or function unexpectedly. This could cause accidents and fatal injuries.
•The airbag system should be checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
WARNING
If the upholstery on electrically adjustable seats or on seat cushions containing airbag
components gets wet, electric components and the vehicle electrics could be damaged.
•A wet seat cushion should always be dried out, and system components checked, by a
qualified workshop.
•Do not use steam cleaners as the steam pushes the soiling into the fabric and sets it.
•High-pressure cleaners and coolant sprays can damage the upholstery.
NOTICE

Cleaning and caring for natural leather covers
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Please contact a Volkswagen dealership or other qualified workshop if you have any questions on
cleaning and caring for the leather equipment in your vehicle.
Care and use
Natural leather is sensitive as it does not have a uniform coating of dye.
•Use a leather cream with sunlight protection and impregnation properties on a regular basis and
always after cleaning. The cream nourishes the leather, keeps it breathable and supple and
replaces lost moisture. It also protects the surface.
•Leather should be cleaned every two to three months and fresh stains removed.
•Treat the leather with a special leather care product every six months ⇒.
•Always apply cleaning and care products extremely sparingly and always use a dry cotton or
woollen cloth that is free from fluff. Do not apply cleaning and care products directly to the
leather.
•Remove fresh stains such as ink, ball-point pen ink, lipstick, shoe cream etc. as quickly as
possible.
•Look after the pigment. Use a special coloured leather cream to refresh the colour where
necessary.
•Wipe it off with a soft cloth.
Cleaning
Volkswagen recommends that you use a damp cotton or wool cloth for general cleaning purposes.
Do not let the water soak through the leather or soak into the seams.
Please observe the following notes prior to cleaning the leather upholstery ⇒ Cleaning upholstery
on seat cushions with seat heating, electrically adjustable seats, or seats containing airbag
components.
Type of stainCleaning
Stubborn stains– Use a wrung-out cloth to apply a mild soap solution.
– Dry with an absorbent, dry cloth.
Water-based stains, e.g.
coffee, tea, juice, blood
etc.
– Remove fresh stains with an absorbent cloth,
– If the stain has already dried, use a suitable cleaning agent ⇒.
Oily stains, e.g. oil, lipstick
etc.
– Remove fresh stains with an absorbent cloth.
– If the stain has not yet penetrated the surface, use a suitable
cleaning agent ⇒.
Difficult stains, e.g. biro,
felt tip pen, nail varnish,
emulsion paint, shoe
polish etc.
– Dry with an absorbent, dry cloth.
– Clean with a suitable leather stain remover.
•Brushes should be used on carpets and mats only. Other surfaces could be damaged by
brushes.
•When washing paste or fine detergent solutions are applied with a damp cloth or sponge,
visible edges may appear on the upholstery once it has dried. This can be due to
substances such as surfactants. These edges are usually difficult or even impossible to
remove.
NOTICE
•Do not soak Alcantara under any circumstances.
•Do not use leather care products, solvents, wax polish, shoe cream, stain removers or
similar products on Alcantara.
•Do not use brushes if cleaning with liquids. This could damage the surface of the material.
