Pointing the steering wheel toward your face decreases the ability of the driver's airbag to help
protect you in a collision.
Never drive with backrests reclined or tilted back farther than necessary to drive comfortably.
The farther back the backrests are tilted, the greater the risk of injury caused by incorrect posi‐
tioning of the safety belts and improper seating position.
Never drive with the front seat passenger backrest tilted forward. If the front airbag deploys,
the front backrest can be forced backward and injure passengers on the rear seat.
Sit as far back as possible from the steering wheel and the instrument panel.
Always sit upright with your back against the backrest with the front seats properly adjusted.
Never lean against or place any part of your body too close to the area where the airbags are
located.
Rear seat passengers who are not properly seated and restrained are more likely to be seri‐
ously injured in a crash.
WARNING
Improper adjustment of the seats can cause accidents and severe injuries.
Never adjust the seats while the vehicle is moving. Your seat may move unexpectedly and you
could lose control of the vehicle. In addition, you will not be in the correct seating position while
adjusting the seats.
Adjust the front seat height, angle and longitudinal direction only if the seat adjustment area is
clear.
The adjustment of the front seats must not be restricted by things in the footwell in front or be‐
hind the seats.
WARNING
Improper use of seat covers can lead to an accidental activation of the electrical seat controls
and can cause the front seats to move unexpectedly while driving. You could lose control of the
vehicle, crash, and seriously injure yourself and others. Furthermore, the electrical components
of the front seats could be damaged.
Never attach seat covers to the electrical seat controls.
Never put seat covers or replacement upholstery on the front seats that have not been ap‐
proved by Volkswagen for your specific vehicle.
