WARNING
The central computer of the Infotainment
system is networked with the control units
in the vehicle. For this reason, improper re-
pairs or incorrect removal and installation
of the central computer could constitute an
increased risk of accident and injury.
·
Never replace the central computer with
a used central computer taken from an
older vehicle or a recycling facility.
·
Have the central computer removed, in-
stalled or repaired only by a qualified
workshop. Volkswagen recommends us-
ing a Volkswagen dealership for this pur-
pose.
WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driv-
er is distracted. Reading information from
the screen, operating the Infotainment sys-
tem and connecting, inserting or removing
a data medium or audio source while driv-
ing can distract you from the traffic situa-
tion and cause accidents.
·
Always drive carefully and responsibly.
WARNING
Unfavourable light conditions and a dam-
aged or dirty screen may result in displays
and information not being read or not be-
ing read correctly from the screen.
·
Displays and information on the screen
must never cause you to take safety
risks. Always drive carefully and respon-
sibly.
WARNING
If you set the volume at too high a level,
this will mean that you will not hear acous-
tic signals from outside, and it can also
damage your hearing. This is the case even
if you are only exposed to high volumes for
short periods.
·
Set the volume so that noises outside
the vehicle (e.g. emergency service si-
rens) can be easily heard at all times.
WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change
when you switch the audio or media source
or connect a new source.
