Luggage compartments
Your VW has two luggage compart-
ments, one under the front hood, and the
other behind the rear seat.
Since improper weight distribution can
affect car
handling,
take advantage of
the two luggage compartments. Load
the front luggage compartment first,
using the heaviest pieces of luggage, if
possible.
Front
luggage compartment
To unlock the front
hood,
pull the re-
lease inside the glove compartment.
Now open the front hood by depressing
the release button
in
the hood handle.
To lock the front hood, lower the hood
and press the handle down firmly. Do
not press on one
side
of the hood. Make
sure the hood is securely locked.
Rear luggage compartment
Additional luggage can be stored in the
space behind the rear seat. You can ex-
pand this luggage area by folding the
backrest down and fastening it in this
position.
To release the backrest, pull the strap on
the left, as seen in driving direction.
When you fold the backrest back, it locks
automatically in its place.
After folding the rear seat forward to
increase the loading area, make sure
the front seats and seat backs are in
securely latched positions.
Do not drive with the rear seat cushion
removed and the backrest folded down.
In the folded down position, the backrest
may interfere with the operation
ol
the
front safety bells.
To hold the backrest in the folded-down
position,
hook the retaining strap (on
the back of the backrest) under the seat
rail.
To adjust the length of the
strap,
unhook
the strap and move the slide.
