Driving tips

Introduction

This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:

⇒ Preparing for a journey and driving safely

⇒ Driving abroad

⇒ Driving through water on roads

Depending on where the vehicle is used, it may be advisable to have an engine and transmission

guard installed. An engine and transmission guard can reduce the risk of damage to the vehicle's

underbody and engine oil sump, for example when driving over kerbs, driveways or unsurfaced

roads. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.

Driving through water on roads

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒

Introduction

Please follow these rules to help prevent damage to your vehicle when driving through water, for

example if the road is flooded:

•

Check the depth of the water before driving through it. The water level must be no higher than

the lower edge of the vehicle body ⇒

•

Do not drive faster than walking speed.

Never stop the vehicle, reverse or switch off the engine while in water.

Oncoming vehicles create waves that could increase the water level for your vehicle to such an

extent that it is not safe to drive through the water.

•

When driving through water, always switch off the start/stop system ⇒ Pull-away assist

systems.

WARNING

After driving through water, mud, slush etc., the brakes may react slowly and the braking

distance will be increased as the brake discs and pads will be wet, or possibly iced up in

winter.

•

You can dry and de-ice the brakes by performing careful braking manoeuvres. Ensure that

you do not endanger any other road users or violate any legal regulations when doing so.

•

Avoid abrupt and sudden braking manoeuvres directly after driving through water.

NOTICE

•

If you drive through water, parts of the vehicle, such as the engine, drive train, running

gear and vehicle electrics, could sustain severe damage.

•

Never drive through salt water as salt can cause corrosion. Rinse all components that have

been exposed to salt water immediately with fresh water.
