Event data recorder
The vehicle is not fitted with an event data recorder.
Event data recorders temporarily store vehicle information. This provides precise information in the
event of an accident. In vehicles with an airbag system, data that might be relevant in the event of
an accident can be stored, e.g. impact speed, belt buckle status, seat positions and trigger speed.
The scope of the data is manufacturer-specific.
An event data recorder may only be fitted if the owner has approved the procedure. This is covered
by legislation in some countries.
Reprogramming control units
All data for the control of components are stored in the control units. Some convenience functions,
such as lane change flash, single door unlocking and displays, can be reprogrammed using special
workshop equipment. If this is the case, the descriptions in your vehicle wallet will no longer
correspond with the original functions. Volkswagen recommends that you have any reprogramming
confirmed in the service schedule under Workshop comments.
Information about possible reprogramming can be obtained from the Volkswagen dealership.
Reading the vehicle's event memory
A diagnostic interface for reading the event memories is located in the vehicle interior ⇒. Data
relating to the function and status of the electronic control units are stored in the event memory.
Additional information on the stored data is available from qualified workshops.
The diagnosis interface is located behind near the fuse box in the footwell on the driver side.
The event memory should only be read and reset by a qualified workshop.
After a fault has been rectified, the information in the memory pertaining to the fault is deleted.
Other memory content is overwritten on an on-going basis.
Using a mobile telephone in the vehicle without a connection to the
external aerial
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Both during telephone calls and in standby mode, mobile telephones transmit and receive radio
waves, which may also be termed "high-frequency energy". Current scientific literature warns us
that radio waves can be harmful to human beings if they exceed certain limits. Government bodies
and international committees have introduced threshold values and guidelines to ensure that
electromagnetic radiation produced by mobile telephones does not pose a hazard to health.
However, there is no proven scientific evidence that demonstrates that cordless telephones are
absolutely safe.
For this reason, some experts are calling for more precautions to be taken in the use of mobile
telephones, by taking steps to reduce the level of personal exposure to electromagnetic radiation.
If a mobile telephone that is not connected to the vehicle's external aerial is used inside the vehicle,
the level of electromagnetic radiation could be higher than when the mobile telephone is connected
to an integrated aerial or any other external aerial.
If the vehicle is fitted with a suitable hands-free unit which enables the use of innumerable
additional functions of Bluetooth compatible mobile telephones, this will satisfy the legal
requirements in many countries which permit the use of a mobile telephone in a vehicle only if a
hands-free unit is used.
The hands-free system of the portable navigation device (delivered by VolkswagenyfLQ\RXUYHKLFOH
has been developed for mobile telephones that are compatible with Bluetooth⇒ Portable
navigation device. Mobile telephones must be located in a suitable telephone holder or be stored
securely in the vehicle. If a telephone holder is used it must be securely attached to the base plate.
This is the only way to ensure that the mobile telephone is securely attached to the dash panel and
always within reach of the driver. Depending on the hands-free system, the connection between the
mobile telephone and the external aerial is established either via the telephone holder or via an
existing Bluetooth connection between the mobile telephone and the vehicle.
Connecting the mobile telephone is to a telephone aerial integrated in the vehicle or to an external
telephone aerial reduces the electromagnetic radiation generated by the telephone which could
affect the human body. Using an aerial also improves the quality of the signal.
Incorrect use of the diagnostic interface can cause faults, which can result in accidents and
serious injuries.
\f

If a mobile telephone is used in the vehicle interior without this hands-free system, it is not safely
secured in the vehicle and also not connected to the vehicle's external telephone aerial.
Furthermore, the mobile telephone is not being charged in the telephone holder. It is also likely that
the telephone connection will be disrupted and the signal strength will be poor.
A mobile telephone should only be used in the vehicle if it is connected to a hands-free unit.
Volkswagen recommends the use of an external aerial when using a mobile telephone in the
vehicle.

Volkswagen recommends that you take the portable navigation device with you when leaving
the vehicle to prevent it being stolen.
Vehicle lifting points

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The vehicle may only be lifted at the points shown in the illustrations ⇒ Fig. 137 and ⇒ Fig. 138. If
the vehicle is not raised on the lifting points shown, the vehicle could be damaged ⇒. There is
also a risk of serious injury ⇒.

If the portable navigation device is not secured or not properly secured in the vehicle, it could
be flung though the interior during a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre, or in the event of
an accident. This could cause injuries.
