Vehicle care
Vehicle care information
Regular, proper care helps to maintain your vehicle.
The longer dirt remains on the surfaces of vehicle components, the more difficult it may be to clean and care for them. Long-
term exposure can make it impossible for dirt to be removed.
For questions regarding care products or for vehicle components that are not listed, consult a suitably qualified professional.
Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Suitably qualified professionals can provide you with suitable accessories. Volkswagen recommends the use of Genuine
Volkswagen Accessories, which you can acquire from an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility. Read and follow the usage instructions on the packaging.
WARNING
Cleaning, impregnating and caring for vehicle components incorrectly can irreparably damage and impair the vehicle's
safety equipment, such as the airbag modules. This may cause serious injuries in the event of an accident.
Always use suitable cleaning agents. More information can be obtained from suitably qualified professionals.
Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Never use cleaning solutions that contain solvents.
Clean and maintain vehicle components only according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING
Cleaning the vehicle incorrectly may result in serious injuries.
Protect your hands and arms against components with sharp edges, for example when cleaning the inside of the
wheel housings.
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when using cleaning agents.
WARNING
Dirty, foggy, or icy door windows reduce visibility and can impair the vehicle's safety equipment. This can cause accidents
and serious or fatal injuries.
Only drive when there is clear visibility through all windows.
Do not use water-repellent window solutions on the windshield. This can cause intense glare under poor visual
conditions.
