Dynamic headlight range control
The headlight range cannot be adjusted manually if the vehicle has dynamic headlight range
control. The headlight range is automatically adapted to suit the vehicle load level as soon as the
headlights are switched on ⇒.
If you have different loads, you can select a position between the settings.
Switching over headlights for driving abroad (travel modeyf
If you have to drive a right-hand drive vehicle in a left-hand drive country, or vice versa, the
asymmetric dipped beam headlights may dazzle oncoming traffic. Therefore the headlights need to
be switched over when you travel to these countries.
On vehicles with advanced main-beam control, the alignment of the headlights can be adjusted in
the Infotainment system in the Vehicle settings menu ⇒ Operation and display in the 
Infotainment system:
The function of the dynamic cornering light and advanced main-beam control is deactivated once
travel mode is activated. The main beam is then only switched on and off automatically.
Travel mode may only be used for a short period. Please contact a qualified workshop for a
permanent alteration. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
Troubleshooting
Turn signal
Left or right turn signals. The indicator lamp will flash twice as fast if one of the turn signals
on the vehicle is not working. Check the exterior lighting.Does not apply in China and
Japan: trailer turn signal. The indicator lamp goes out if a trailer turn signal or all trailer lights stop
working. Check trailer lights.
Vehicle lighting
Vehicle lighting defective, in full or in part. Check the exterior lighting and change the
appropriate bulb as required ⇒ Changing bulbs. If all of the bulbs are in working order, go to a
qualified workshop.
Cornering light
The dynamic cornering light does not work when travel mode ⇒ Switching over headlights for 
driving abroad (travel modeyf is activated.
In vehicles with driving profile selection, the selected driving profile can affect the swivelling motion
of the lights. For example, the dynamic cornering light is deactivated in the Eco driving profile
⇒ Driving profile selection and 4MOTION Active Control.
A corresponding display appears in the instrument cluster if there is a fault in the dynamic cornering
light. Go to a qualified workshop.
Advanced main-beam control
Advanced main-beam control will respond in the same way as the normal main-beam control and
switch main beam on or off automatically in the following situations:
Heavy objects in the vehicle can cause the headlights to dazzle and distract other road
users. This can lead to accidents and serious injuries.
•The light cone should always be adjusted to the load level of the vehicle to ensure that
other road users are not dazzled.
WARNING
Failure or malfunction in the dynamic headlight range control can cause the headlights to
dazzle or distract other road users. This can lead to accidents and serious injuries.
•The headlight range control should be checked by a qualified workshop as soon as
possible.

You can change the following bulbs yourself:
•Bulbs in the halogen headlight: dipped beam, main beam, daytime running light, side light, turn
signal.
•Bulbs in front bumper: fog lights, static cornering light.
•Bulbs in the tail light clusters: rear turn signal, if it does not feature LED technology (depending
on vehicle equipment levelyf.
All other bulbs and lamps in the vehicle should always be changed by an expert.
Additional bulb specifications
Some bulbs in headlights or in tail light clusters might have factory specifications that are different
to standard bulbs. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on the base.
LED bulbs on the vehicle
•Brake light, rear fog light, tail light, turn signal and reversing light in the tail light clusters.
•Dipped beam, main beam, daytime running lights, static cornering light, side lights and turn
signal.
•Number plate light.
Owners cannot replace the LEDs themselves. If some LEDs fail, this may be an indication that
more elements are on the point of failure. If this happens, have the bulbs checked and replaced if
necessary at a qualified workshop.
Checklist Information on changing bulbs
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Checklist
Always carry out the following actions for changing a bulb in the given order ⇒:
Accidents can occur if roads are not sufficiently illuminated and other road users have
difficulty seeing the vehicle, or cannot see it at all.
WARNING
Changing the bulb incorrectly can cause accidents and serious injuries.
•When working in the engine compartment, always read and observe the safety
warnings ⇒ In the engine compartment. The engine compartment of any motor vehicle
is a dangerous area. Serious injuries can be sustained here.
•H7/H15 bulbs are pressurised and could explode when they are being changed.
•Only change the defective bulb once it has had time to cool down completely.
•Never change a bulb unless you are familiar with the procedure. If you are uncertain of
what to do, the work should be carried out by a qualified workshop.
•Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with unprotected fingers. When the light is
switched on, heat will cause fingerprints to evaporate on the bulb, which in turn will
cause the reflector to dim.
•There are sharp-edged parts in the headlight housing in the engine compartment and
on the tail light cluster housing. Protect your hands when changing bulbs.
WARNING
Damage to the electrical system can be caused by water entering the system if the rubber
covers or plastic caps on the headlight housing are not properly mounted after a bulb has
been changed.
NOTICE

Check to see if a fuse has blown Changing fuses.
Follow the instructions to change the affected bulb . Always use identical bulbs with the
same designation. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on
the base.
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with unprotected fingers. The heat of the bulb would
cause the fingerprint to evaporate and condense on the reflector. This will impair the
brightness of the headlight.
After changing the bulb, check to ensure that the bulb is working properly. If the bulb is not
working properly, the bulb may not have been inserted properly or may have failed again,
or the connector may have been inserted incorrectly.
Any time you change a bulb in the front of the vehicle, the headlight settings should be
checked by a qualified workshop.

Troubleshooting
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Lighting
Vehicle lighting not working partially or completely. A separate display appears in the
instrument cluster if there is a cornering light fault.A trailer turn signal or all trailer lights have
stopped working.
Check the exterior lighting and change the appropriate bulb as required ⇒ Changing bulbs. If all
bulbs are OK or there is a fault in the dynamic cornering light, go to a qualified workshop.
Monitoring the lights on a connected trailer
For vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket, the vehicle will also monitor certain bulbs on a
trailer which has been connected properly via the trailer socket.
If a trailer turn signal or all the trailer lights fail, the indicator lamp in the instrument cluster will
go out.
Changing fuses
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Fuses in the dash panel
⇒ Fuses in the engine compartment
⇒ Fuse table for fuses in the dash panel
⇒ Fuse tables for fuses in the engine compartment
⇒ Changing a blown fuse
At the time of print we are unable to provide an complete overview of the locations of the fuses for
the electrical consumers. This is because the vehicle is under constant development, because
fuses are assigned differently depending on the vehicle equipment level and because several
consumers may use a single fuse. You can get more information about the fuse layout from a
Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers could share a single 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 rectified. If a new
fuse blows shortly after insertion, have the electrical system checked by a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
