Using the vehicle in other countries and continents
The vehicle has been manufactured specifically for a particular country and complies with the
registration regulations that applied in that country at the time of vehicle production.
If you want to use the vehicle abroad for a short period, all relevant information and instructions
should be followed (→ Safety, Introduction/General information).
If the vehicle is going to be sold in another country or used in another country for an extended
period, the legal requirements applicable in that country must be observed.
In some cases, certain equipment will have to be fitted or removed and functions deactivated.
The scope of servicing and the type of servicing could also be affected. This is particularly
important if the vehicle is driven in another climatic region for a long period of time.
Because different frequency bands are used in different countries, the factory-fitted
Infotainment system may not work in other countries.
Due to different legal regulations, it is possible that charging at mains sockets will be permitted
only with reduced charging current in other countries. The charging cable limits the charging
current corresponding to the infrastructure used. The lower value is used for charging if the
settings differ (→ Charging cable, Description).
Due to different technical standards, charging at charging stations in another country may not be
possible or may be possible only using a suitable charging cable. Consult a Volkswagen
dealership for further information.
