For their own safety, all children, especially those 12years and younger, must always sit on
the back seat, properly restrained for their age and size.
When installing a child restraint, always carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions.
If the airbag indicator light goes on while driving, have the system inspected immediately by
your authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. A lit indicator
light means the airbags may not work properly if activated in a crash.
Always make sure that the status signaled by the PASSENGERAIRBAG light is cor‐
rect for the way that the front passenger seat is being used.
WARNING
Objects between you and the airbag will increase the risk of injury in a crash by interfering with
the way the airbag unfolds and/or by being pushed into you as the airbag inflates.
Never hold things in your hands or on your lap when the vehicle is moving.
Never place accessories or other objects (such as cup holders, telephone brackets, notepads,
navigation systems, or things that are large, heavy, or bulky) on the doors or attach them to
the doors; never place them over or near the area marked AIRBAG on the steering wheel, in‐
strument panel, or seat backrests, or between those areas and someone in the vehicle
⇒Fig.32 and ⇒Fig.33 . Such objects could cause serious injury in a collision, especially if an
airbag inflates.
Never attach accessories to the windshield above the passenger front airbag, such as GPS
navigation units or music players. Such objects could cause serious injury in a collision, espe‐
cially if an airbag inflates.
Never recline the front passenger seat to transport objects. Items can also move into the de‐
ployment area of the side airbags or the front airbag during braking or in a sudden maneuver.
Objects near the airbags can fly dangerously through the passenger compartment and cause
injury, particularly when the seat is reclined and the airbags inflate.
Always make sure that there is nothing on the front passenger seat that will cause the capaci‐
tive passenger detection system in the seat to signal to the Airbag System that the seat is oc‐
cupied by a person when it is not, or to signal that it is occupied by someone who is heavier
than the person actually sitting on the seat. The presence of an object could cause the pas‐
senger front airbag to be turned on when it should be off, or could cause the airbag to work in
a way that is different from the way it would have worked without the object on the seat.
