Securing systems
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
Different countries use different securing systems for safely fitting child seats in the vehicle.
Overview of securing systems
ISOFIX: ISOFIX is a standardised securing system for fitting child seats in the vehicle quickly and
safely. The ISOFIX attachment system creates a rigid connection between the child seat and the
vehicle body.
Compatible child seats have two rigid attachment arms that engage in ISOFIX attachment points at
the bottom of the backrest (on the outer rear seats). The ISOFIX securing system as described here is
specific to Europe Securing a child seat with ISOFIX
foot may sometimes have to be used in addition to the ISOFIX anchor points described above.
Three-point automatic seat belt. It is preferable to secure child seats using the ISOFIX system, if
available, rather than with a three-point automatic seat belt Securing c

Recommended child seat securing systems
Volkswagen recommends that child seats are secured as follows:
Infant carrier or rear-facing child seat: ISOFIX and support foot.
Front-facing child seat: ISOFIX and top tether and possibly also support foot.

WARNING

Ensure that the support foot is always correctly and safely installed.

Securing child seats with a seat belt
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
If you want to fit a child seat from the "universal" (u) approval category in your vehicle, you must
first ensure that it is approved for the seat position in question. Important information is given on
the orange ECE approval label on the child seat. Installation options are shown in the table below.

Adjust the steering wheel so that you can hold it with both hands at its circumference at the 9
o'clock and 3 o'clock positions with your arms slightly bent Fig. 68
Push the lever up firmly until it is flush with the steering column trim

WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering column position adjustment and incorrect adjustment of the steering
wheel can cause serious or fatal injuries.
After adjusting the steering column, always move lever Fig.
0up so that it engages securely.
This prevents the steering column from moving spontaneously while the vehicle is in motion.
Never adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is in motion. If you determine that a readjustment
is necessary when driving, stop the vehicle safely and adjust the steering wheel to the correct
position.
The steering wheel must always point towards the chest and not towards the face. This ensures that
the driver front airbag provides maximum protection in the event of an accident.
While driving, always keep both hands on the outside of the steering wheel at the 9 o'clock and 3
o'clock positionsFig. 68
Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position, or in any other manner, e.g. at the hub of
the steering wheel. If the driver front airbag is triggered, you could sustain serious injuries to the
arms, hands and head.

Mechanically adjusting the front seat
Folding the front passenger seat backrest forwards
The following section describes the options for adjusting the front seats. Always ensure that you
adjust the correct sitting position Sitting position

WARNING
Always adjust the front seats to their correct position before any journey and ensure that all
passengers have fastened their seat belts.
Push the front passenger seat as far back as possible.
Adjust the driver seat so that there is at least 25 cm between your breastbone and the hub of the
steering wheel. Adjust the driver seat by moving it forwards or backwards so that you are able to
press the pedals to the floor with your knees still slightly angled and the distance to the dash panel
in the knee area is at least 10 cm. If your build makes it impossible to fulfil this requirement, you
must contact a qualified workshop so they can make any necessary modifications.
Never travel with the backrest tilted far back. The further back the backrest is tilted, the greater the
risk of injury caused by incorrect seat belt routing or an incorrect sitting position.
Never travel with the backrest tilted far forwards. When a front airbag is triggered, it could force the
seat backrest backwards and injure vehicle occupants on the rear seats.
Adopt and maintain the greatest possible distance from the steering wheel and dash panel.
You should always sit upright with your back against the seat backrest with the front seats properly
adjusted. Do not position any body part too close to where the airbags are fitted.
The risk of serious injury is increased for passengers on the rear seat if they are not sitting upright
because the seat belts are incorrectly positioned.

WARNING
Incorrect adjustment of the seats can cause accidents and serious injuries.
The seats must be adjusted only when the vehicle is stationary, or else the seat could change
position unexpectedly while the vehicle is in motion, leading to a loss of control of the vehicle.
Furthermore, an incorrect seating position is adopted while adjusting the seat.
Adjust the height and tilt of the seat or move it forwards and backwards only when the area around
the seat is clear.
The adjustment range of the seats must not be restricted by any items.
Adjust the tilt angle of the rear seats or move them forwards and backwards only when the area
around the seats is clear.
The adjustment and locking areas of the seats must not be soiled.

WARNING
Cigarette lighters left in the vehicle can become damaged or may ignite unnoticed. This can cause
serious burns and vehicle damage.
Before adjusting the seats, always make sure that there is no lighter on or near the moveable parts
of the seat.
Before closing stowage areas or compartments, always make sure that there is no lighter in the way.
Never stow lighters in stowage areas, compartments or on other surfaces in the vehicle. Cigarette
lighters may self-ignite as a result of high surface temperatures, particularly in summer.

NOTICE
Sharp edges can damage the seats.
Do not touch the seats with sharp-edged objects. Sharp-edged objects such as zips, rivets on clothing
or belts can damage surfaces. Open Velcro fasteners can also cause damage.

lit for as long as the front passenger seat backrest is folded forwards.
When folding forwards and backwards, keep all hands, fingers, feet and other body parts away from
the seat hinges and seat release mechanism.
Floor mats or other objects could get caught in the hinges on the front passenger seat backrest. This
could cause the front passenger seat backrest to fail to engage securely when it is returned to the
upright position.
When being folded back, the front passenger seat backrest must be securely locked in the upright
position. If the front passenger seat backrest is not locked properly, it could move suddenly and
cause serious injuries.

WARNING
The open seat anchorages and hinges of the folded front passenger seat backrest can cause serious
injuries in the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or accident.
Never transport either adults or children on the front passenger seat if the front passenger seat
backrest is folded forwards.
If the front passenger seat backrest is folded forwards, you must use only the rear seat behind the
driver seat. This also applies to children in child seats.
