signed differently depending on the vehicle
equipment le vel and because several electri-
cal consumers may use a single fuse. You can
obtain further information about the fuse as-
signment from a Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers can share a sin-
gle 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 recti-
fied. If a new fuse blows again shortly after
fitting, have the electrical system checked by
a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Fuses for emergency services (high-voltage
system)
High-voltage system fuses in the fuse box
under the steering wheel, behind the stow-
age compartment (left-hand drive) or behind
a cover in the glove box (right-hand drive)
and behind a cover on the right side of the
luggage compartment are identified with
a tag to enable emergency services to de-en-
ergise the vehicle as quickly as possible. Nev-
er attempt to replace these fuses or swap
them with other fuses in other slots

bracket there is no mounting for the screw-in
towing eye behind the cover. In order to tow
the vehicle, use the ball coupling. You will
first have to swivel it out or fit it

If the vehicle exceeds the gross vehicle
weight rating or the rear axle load, the v
ehi-
cle speed must not exceed 80 km/h when
towing a trailer. This also applies to countries
where higher speeds are permitted. Observe
local speed limits. These may be lower for ve-
hicles with trailers than for vehicles without
trailers.
Any permitted excess loads for the vehicle
are entered in the vehicle documents. If no
excess load has been entered, it is possible to
drive up to 100 km/h, although local regula-
tions must be observed.
