Stop and close the fuel filler
cap properly.
When the ignition is switched on, several warning and indicator lights come on briefly for a function
check. They go out after a few seconds.
Fuel filler cap not properly closed
If the indicator light comes on or you see a text message in the instrument cluster display indicating
that the fuel filler cap is not properly closed, stop the vehicle in a safe place and switch off the engine
and the ignition.
Open the fuel filler flap and take the fuel filler cap off the filler neck. Then put the fuel filler cap back on
the filler neck and screw it on clockwise until you clearly hear a clicking sound. Close the fuel filler flap.
After switching on the ignition, the indicator light may stay on or the text message may still appear
in the instrument cluster display, even if the fuel filler cap is now properly closed. This is normal and no
reason to take your vehicle in for service.
If, however, the malfunction indicator light also lights up, drive to your nearest authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility and have the fuel system and the
engine checked.
