Thank you for choosing Volkswagen
By purchasing this Volkswagen, you have become the owner of a vehicle fitted with the most
up-to-date technology and a multitude of con venience functions for your use and enjoyment.
Before using your vehicle for the first time, please read and observe the information in this
owner

shop to find out about possible special modi-
fications. The seat belts and airbags can only
pro
vide a maximum level of protection if
a correct sitting position is assumed. Volks-
wagen recommends using a Volkswagen
dealership for this purpose.
Volkswagen recommends the following seat-
ing position for your own safety and to re-
duce the level of injury in the event of a sud-
den braking manoeuvre or an accident:
The following applies to all vehicle occu-
pants:

NOTICE
Before setting off and bef ore switching on
the ignition, always check the following to
avoid damage to the windows, wiper blades
and wiper motor:
x The wiper lever is located in the basic po-
sition.
x Snow and ice have been removed from the
wiper blades and windows.
x Wiper blades that have become frozen on-
to the glass have been carefully loosened.
Volkswagen recommends using a de-icer
spray for this. NOTICE
Do not switch on the wipers when the win-
dow is dry. Using the wipers when the win-
dow is dry can damage the glass. When switched on, the wipers will
temporarily be switched to the ne

xt
setting down when the vehicle is stationary.
If the driver or front passenger door is
opened when the vehicle is stationary,
the windscreen wipers will move to their ini-
tial position and will be switched off. If the
door is closed within a few seconds or the
wiper lever is moved, the wipers will be
switched back on again.
If the vehicle is parked during cold
weather, the service position of the
windscreen wiper may be helpful in order to
be able to release the wiper blades better
from the windscreen

ing effect can be increased by applying
more pressure to the brake pedal.
x You must driv
e particularly carefully
when driving with new brake pads in or-
der to reduce the risk of accidents, seri-
ous injuries and loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
x Never drive too close to other vehicles
when running in new brake pads, and
never create a driving situation that will
place a heavy load on the brakes. Regularly perform a visual check of the
thickness of the front brake pads
through the openings in the rims or from the
underside of the v

ehicle. If necessary, remove
the wheels to carry out a comprehensive
check. Volkswagen recommends using
a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose. When the front brake pads are
checked, the brake pads in the drum
brakes on the rear axle should also be
checked at the same time. This check is per-
f

ormed though an inspection hole on the rear
of the drum. A sealing plug must be removed
for this purpose. Volkswagen recommends
using a Volkswagen dealership for this pur-
pose. Driving a loaded vehicle

electrical system and to the high-voltage
battery.
Driving with an open boot lid
Driving with an open boot lid is particularly
dangerous. All objects and the open boot lid
must be secured properly and suitable meas-
ures taken.
Driving with an open boot lid increases the
air resistance of the v
ehicle and thus also the
energy consumption of the electric drive.
This considerably reduces the possible range
of the vehicle. Volkswagen does not recom-
mend driving with the boot lid open due to
the resulting reduction in range. NOTICE
The vehicle height, and possibly the length,
are diff
erent when the boot lid is open. Driving through water on
roads
Please f

ollow these rules to help prevent
damage to your vehicle when driving through
water, for example if the road is flooded:

Regularly update the appropriate anti-
virus program with the updates or up-
grades pro

Introduction to the topic
The factory-fitted central control unit sup-
ports the system update function. This allows
the software of almost all control units to be
updated by V

olkswagen AG without the need
to visit a qualified workshop:
If a system update is available for your vehi-
cle, a corresponding message will be dis-
played on the Infotainment system.
System updates are downloaded via the fac-
tory-fitted control unit with eSIM card (OCU)
and are free of charge. Volkswagen pays the
connection costs.
The system update function is only available
in some countries. A measure such as engine tuning to in-
crease perf

ormance or efficiency that
has not been performed by Volkswagen may
be deleted by a system update. Overview
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 196.
