WARNING

An airbag deploys within a few milliseconds and at a very high speed. This could result in objects being thrown through the vehicle interior. This may cause serious injuries.

  • Always keep the deployment zones of the airbags clear.

  • Never attach objects to the covers or in the deployment zones of airbags.

  • Do not tape over or cover the installation locations of the airbags or the surfaces in the deployment zones of the airbags, or modify them in any other way.

  • There should be no people, animals, or objects between the vehicle occupants and the airbag deployment zone.

    Make sure that children and passengers also follow this guideline.

  • Do not attach any objects, such as mobile navigation systems, to the windshield above the front airbag on the passenger's side.

  • Only pivot sunshades toward the side windows if no objects such as pens or garage door openers are attached to the visor.

  • Do not attach any sunshades to the side windows that are not specifically approved for use in the vehicle.

  • Only hang lightweight clothing from the garment hooks in the vehicle. Never store heavy or sharp-edged objects in pockets.

  • Do not attach any accessories to the doors.

WARNING

An incorrect seating position may prevent the front airbag from functioning properly and cause serious injuries.

  • Always hold the steering wheel with both hands on the sides of the outer edge, in the nine o'clock and three o'clock position.

  • Adjust the driver seat so that there is a distance of at least 25 cm( 10 inches) between your chest and the center of the steering wheel. If body characteristics mean that this is not possible, you must contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

  • Adjust the front passenger seat so that there is the greatest possible distance between the front passenger and the instrument panel.

WARNING

Incorrect handling and use of the seats can inhibit the airbags from functioning correctly and cause serious injuries.

  • Never remove the front seats from the vehicle or modify parts of them.

  • Do not apply excessive force to the backrest bolsters.
