WARNINGS.

Important Warnings and Safety Information, which you must read, are

listed on the last panel, under KEY FOB and REMOTE START WARNINGS.

This Guide is not a substitute for the Owner’s Manual. You must read it and the warnings included in it.

BLUETOOTH

WARNINGS:

Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Speaking on or using a phone while driving can distract

the driver from traffic.

• Use of Bluetooth technology requires a compatible phone.

• Select the volume settings so that the acoustic signals from the outside are still audible (for example, the sirens

of emergency rescue vehicles). Observe legal regulations.

• In areas with no or poor mobile network coverage and possibly in tunnels, garages and subways, phone

conversations may be interrupted, and it may be impossible to make phone calls—even emergency calls!

• In some countries, emergency calls may only be supported when the mobile phone is connected to a mobile phone

package which has a SIM card that is “not blocked” and/or has sufficient credit on it.

• Unmounted or improperly mounted mobile phones can fly around in the event of a sudden driving or braking

maneuver or an accident. This may cause injuries.

• Never place or mount a mobile phone on doors, on the windshield or on or near the area on the steering

wheel marked “AIRBAG,” the instrument panel, the seat backrests or the areas between these points and the

driver/passengers. Mobile phones can lead to serious injuries in cases of accidents, especially when the airbags

are inflated.

• Always switch off your mobile telephone at gas stations or wherever there is a fire or explosion hazard.

Electromagnetic radiation can cause sparks which can start fires.

• The mobile phone will automatically connect to the mobile network when the Bluetooth connection to the mobile

phone package is disconnected. Using a radio device in the vehicle without a connection to an external antenna

might exceed electromagnetic radiation thresholds. This also applies if the external antenna is not installed properly.

• Keep a distance of at least 8 inches between the antennas of the mobile phone and a pacemaker, since mobile

phones can affect the functionality of a pacemaker.

• Do not carry a mobile phone on standby mode in the breast pocket directly on top of a pacemaker.

• If interference is suspected, immediately switch off the mobile phone.

• The center armrest can interfere with the driver’s elbow movement and thus cause accidents and severe injuries.

Always keep the armrest closed while driving.

KEY FOB WARNINGS:

Improper use of vehicle keys can result in serious personal injury.

• Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle. It can be used to start the engine and operate vehicle

systems such as the power windows, leading to serious personal injury. Children or other unauthorized persons

could also lock the doors and the luggage compartment.

• Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot help themselves in the vehicle. The doors can

be locked with the remote control key. This could result in people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency.

For example, depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very

low temperatures.

• Heat build-up in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle can result in temperatures in the

vehicle that are much higher than outside temperatures, particularly in summer. Temperatures can quickly reach

levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particularly to small children.

• Never remove the key from the ignition switch while the vehicle is moving or rolling to a stop. The steering wheel

will lock and you will not be able to steer or control the vehicle.

REMOTE START WARNINGS:

Improper use of power locks can result in serious personal injury.

• The power locking button locks all doors. Locking the doors from the inside can help prevent unintended door

opening during a collision and can also prevent unwanted entry from the outside. Locked doors can, however, delay

assistance to vehicle occupants and rescue from the outside in an accident or other emergency.

• Never leave children or anyone who cannot help themselves behind in the vehicle. All doors can be locked from the

inside with the power lock button. This could leave people trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. Depending on

the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.

• A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depending on the season. Particularly in the summer, heat

build-up in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle can result in temperatures in the vehicle

that are much higher than the outside temperatures. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause

unconsciousness and death, particularly to small children.

• Never allow passengers to remain in a locked vehicle. In an emergency any person still inside the vehicle might

not be able to get out.

Speaking Volkswagen

CONNECTING YOUR BLUETOOTH-EQUIPPED

CELL PHONE TO YOUR PASSAT

1 Make sure the Passat is parked.

2 Make sure your cell phone is Bluetooth enabled.

3 Turn on the ignition. The Bluetooth feature goes into “discovery”

mode for five minutes.

new devices.

5 Your cell phone should offer a list of devices for you to

choose from. Select the device “VW Phone.”

6 Enter the passcode “0000” into your phone and press “pair.”

Your phone should be connected to the Bluetooth system.

7 The multi-function display will prompt you to create a user

profile—press “OK.”

NOTE: To allow Bluetooth to reconnect automatically each time

you enter your car, be sure to set “VW Phone” as a “trusted device”

on your phone (this varies from phone to phone, and may not

be necessary on your specific device).

TO ANSWER AN INCOMING CALL

When you get a call, Bluetooth will interrupt your radio.

You’ll hear a ringtone over your car’s speakers.

Press the phone button on the multi-function

steering wheel.

3 Your car will shut off if you hit the unlock button, open the door

or trunk, or just have your hand in the front door handle.

the car manually.

later if you haven’t entered the car.

periods of time with the key on your person, as it may drain

the battery.

CUSTOMIZING YOUR KEY FOB

To customize which doors lock or unlock when you press the

key fob, use the multi-function display buttons on the right side

car won’t let you do this while you’re driving.

“Unlock” button—or when you open the driver’s door.

Select “Single Door:” Only the driver’s side door will unlock.

NOTE: Keyless access works differently in this setting. If you open the

front passenger’s door, the driver’s door will simultaneously unlock.

Select “Vehicle Side:” Both doors on the driver’s side will

unlock when you open the driver’s door.
