The auxiliary heater and ventilation
system allows the vehicle interior to be
heated in winter and ventilated in
summer. Operation of the system
allows ice, condensation and a thin
covering of snow to be cleared from the
windscreen. The auxiliary heater is
supplied with fuel from the vehicle fuel
tank and can be operated when the
vehicle is stationary with the ignition
switched off. The auxiliary ventilation
system is supplied with power by the
12-volt vehicle battery.
Auxiliary heater exhaust system
The emissions produced by the auxiliary heater are removed via an exhaust pipe fitted underneath
the vehicle. The exhaust pipe must not be blocked by snow, mud or other objects.

•Park the vehicle so that no part of the exhaust system can come into contact with any
inflammable material underneath the vehicle, e.g. dry grass.
WARNING
Do not place any food, medicine or any other temperature-sensitive items in front of the
vents. Heat-sensitive food, medicine and other items could be either damaged or rendered
useless.
NOTICE

deactivated.
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
If you sell the vehicle or lend it for a longer period, inform the user about the deactivated services or
deactivated control unit.
If your vehicle is already equipped with the legally required emergency call function eCall, this
function will not be affected by the deactivation.
Temporary deactivation
If your vehicle is in a workshop, you may find that the service technicians have deactivated
individual or all services for the duration of the workshop visit. The services will be available again
once the work is complete. Please contact your workshop if necessary. Individual Volkswagen Car-
Net services can be deactivated manually via the Infotainment system. The services can then be
run again when the deactivation is cancelled in the Infotainment system. Deactivated services are
marked in the Car-Net portal on the start page with a corresponding indication.
Permanent deactivation
In order to permanently deactivate Car-Net functions in vehicles with the Security & Service or
e-Remote packages, the online connectivity unit must be deactivated by a qualified workshop at
your request.
Once the on-board connectivity unit has been deactivated, the workshop will attach a sticker
⇒ Fig. 180 to your vehicle (e.g. on the roof consoleyf7KHVWLFNHUVKRZVWKDWQHLWKHUWKH

•An existing mobile telecommunications standard has been shut down by the
telecommunications provider.
•Impairment or interruption to mobile and GPS reception, e.g. due to high speeds, weather,
landscape, interfering devices or intensive use of the mobile network in the relevant cells.
•The availability, completeness or correctness of information provided by third parties, e.g.
maps.
•Countries where Volkswagen Car-Net services are not available.
