Changes in the activation behaviour of the rain/light sensor
Possible causes for faults and misinterpretations relating to the sensitive surface of the rain/light
sensor
Damaged wiper blades: a film of water or smears caused by damaged wiper blades can increase the
time the wipers are switched on, can shorten the length of the intervals between wipes or cause the
wipers to run quickly and continuously.
Insects: insects hitting the windscreen can cause the wipers to be activated.
Salt deposits: in winter, salt deposits can cause the wipers to continue to wipe the windscreen when
it is almost dry.
Dirt: dry dust, wax, windscreen coatings (lotus effect), or detergent deposits (from an automatic car
wash) can cause the rain/light sensor to become less sensitive and react too slowly, or prevent it
from reacting at all. Clean the sensitive surface of the rain/light sensor Caring for and cleaning the
vehicle exteriorat regular intervals and inspect the wiper blades for damage.
Crack in the windscreen: a wipe cycle will be triggered if the rain/light sensor is on when the
windscreen is impacted by a stone. The rain/light sensor will then register the impairment of the
sensitive surfaces and adjust accordingly. Depending on the size of the stone impact, the activation
behaviour of the rain/light sensor may be changed.
We recommend that you use an alcohol-based glass cleaner to remove wax and polish.

The wipers will try to wipe away any obstacles that are on the window. The wiper will stop moving if
the obstacle continues to block its path. Remove the obstacle and switch the wiper back on again.

Exterior mirrors
You can use the exterior mirrors and the interior mirror to observe traffic behind you and adjust
your driving style accordingly.

move unpredictably.
Any objects protruding from the luggage compartment must be marked to ensure that they are
visible to other road users. Comply with legal regulations.
If items protrude out of the luggage compartment, never use the boot lid to wedge them into place
or hold them in position.
If you have to drive with the boot lid open, you must remove any carriers and the loads attached to
them from the boot lid.

WARNING
Poisonous exhaust fumes could enter the vehicle interior when the boot lid is open. This could result
in loss of consciousness, carbon monoxide poisoning, serious injury and accidents.
You should always drive with the boot lid closed in order to prevent poisonous exhaust fumes from
entering the vehicle.
If exceptional circumstances require you to drive with an open boot lid, you must do the following to
reduce the amount of poisonous exhaust fumes that could enter into the vehicle:
Close all windows and the glass roof.
Switch off the air recirculation mode of the heating and fresh air system or air conditioning system.
Open all vents in the dash panel.
Switch the blower for the heating and fresh air system or for the air conditioning system to the
highest setting.

NOTICE
The vehicle height, and possibly the length, are different when the boot lid is open.
Driving through water
Please follow these points in order to prevent damage to your vehicle when driving through water,
for example on flooded streets:
Check how deep the water is before driving through it. The water may be no higher than the lower
edge of the body
Do not drive faster than walking speed.
Never stop the vehicle, reverse or switch off the engine while in water.
Oncoming vehicles will create waves that could increase the water level for your vehicle to such an
extent that it is not safe to drive through the water.
Always deactivate the start/stop system manually when driving through water Start/stop system

WARNING
Worn or dirty wiper blades reduce visibility and increase the risk of accidents and serious injuries.
nd no longer clean the windows
properly.

Avoid heavy impacts and drive round obstacles whenever possible. Tyres can be deformed by
potholes and kerb edges especially. This can cause damage to the tyres and wheel rims.

Old tyres should be disposed of as required by legislation.

Volkswagen-approved tyres are guaranteed to have the dimensions that are suitable for the vehicle.
In the case of other tyres, the tyre seller must provide a certificate from the tyre manufacturer
stating that the tyre is also suitable for the vehicle. This certificate must be stored in a safe place in
the vehicle.
Wheel rims and wheel bolts
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
Wheel rims, tyres and wheel bolts are matched to the vehicle type. If different wheel rims are fitted,
the correct wheel bolts with the correct length and correctly shaped bolt heads must be used.
For technical reasons, it is not generally possible to use the wheel rims from other vehicles. This can
also apply to wheel rims of the same vehicle type.
The tightening torque of the wheel bolts must be checked regularly with a properly functioning
torque wrench.
Wheel bolts
The correct wheel bolts must be used for each vehicle type; these bolts must always be tightened
with the correct tightening torque Wheel bolts
Wheel rims with bolted rim rings or trim elements
Rims with bolted-on rings or trim elements consist of several components. These components are
joined together using special bolts. Damaged wheel rims must be replaced and must always be
repaired only by a qualified workshop. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for
this purpose
Wheel rim identification
In some countries, new wheel rims must contain information on certain properties. The following
information may appear on the wheel rim:
