Driving abroad
In some countries, special safety standards
and regulations apply that the vehicle may
not comply with. Volkswagen recommends
that you visit your Volkswagen dealership be-
fore travelling abroad to find out about any
legal requirements and the following issues
at your destination:
✓ Does the vehicle need any technical
modifications for driving abroad,
e.g. masking or switching the headlights
over?
✓ Are the necessary tools, diagnostic
equipment and spare parts available for
service and repair work?
✓ Are there any Volkswagen dealerships in
the destination country?
✓ Are the correct service fluids that com-
ply with Volkswagen specifications avail-
able in the destination country
→ page 313?
✓ Does the navigation function in the fac-
tory-fitted Infotainment system work
with the navigation data available in the
destination country?
✓ Are special tyres necessary for travelling
in the destination country?
✓ Is a fire extinguisher a requirement in
your destination country?
✓ Which requirements must be observed
regarding high-visibility waistcoats?
✓ Are special charging cables necessary for
charging at mains sockets in the destina-
tion country?
Checks when charging
Never carry out work on the high-voltage
system yourself. Do not perform any work in
the bonnet space unless you know exactly
how to carry out the tasks, are aware of the
general safety procedures and have the cor-
rect equipment, service fluids and suitable

all work must be carried out by a qualified
workshop. Make sure that the following are
checked regularly:
