will be slightly reduced.
10) Engine power and torque in gas mode depend on the quality of the natural gas. Natural gases are separated between the H-gas and
L-gas quality groups. H-gas has a higher heating value with a methane content of between 87.1 - 98.0 %. L-gas has a lower heating value
with a methane content of between 79.8 - 87.0 %.

WARNING
Note
To check the oil level a slight amount of oil flows out via the over‐
flow tube every 30 seconds, independent of the oil level; the
cause are pulses of the oil, which cool down the coupling. This oil
quantity is no criterion for determining the correct oil level and
must therefore not be taken into account when assessing.
WARNING
The oil drained from the gearbox must no longer be used for
topping up. Used oil must be disposed of according to the na‐
tional legislation ⇒ Gearbox 0D9 - DSG ; Rep. gr. 00 .

WARNING
♦ Brake fluid must never come into contact with fluids con‐
taining mineral oils (oil, petrol, cleaning agent). Mineral
oils damage the gaskets and boots of the brake system.
♦ Brake fluid is poisonous. Also due to its corrosive effect
brake fluid must not come into contact with paintwork.
♦ Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs moisture from the
surrounding air. Therefore it should always be stored in
airtight containers.
♦ Wash any parts stained with brake fluid with large volumes
of water.
♦ Observe the disposal instructions!

Change the brake fluid in the brake system
WARNING
Carry out the brake fluid change in the brake system, without
removing the wheels from the vehicle.
In view of the different versions of the wheels and the brake
callipers, tightening the bleeder valves using the set of tools for
brake bleeding - VAS 6564- and -VAS 6564/9- (with the torque
wrench inserted) cannot always be performed due to lack of
space.
In this case, the corresponding wheels must be removed from
the vehicle. Do not exchange the wheels and mark their posi‐
tion opposite the brake disc.
The wheels must also be removed on vehicles with multi-con‐
trol rear arm axles.
Tightening torque of the wheel screws = 120 Nm.
– Raise vehicle.
– Hook in the catch pan on the vehicle.
– Remove the rubber cap from the bleeder valve on the rear right

WARNING
Note
The fluid must not be above the “MAX” marking to prevent fluid
flowing out of the reservoir.
Delivery Inspection
During the delivery inspection, the brake fluid level should be at
the “MAX” marking -1-.
Inspection:
– The brake fluid level (volume) must always be assessed on
the basis of the brake pad wear. When driving a slight drop in
the brake fluid level occurs as a result of wear-and-tear and
the automatic slack adjustment of the brake pads.

WARNING
Delivery Inspection:
– Inspect the tyre tread and side wall for damage, if necessary
remove any foreign bodies from the tyres, such as nails or
glass splinters.
Inspection:
– Inspect the tyre tread and side wall for damage, if necessary
remove any foreign bodies from the tyres, such as nails or
glass splinters.
– Inspect tyres for scrubbing, tread worn down on one side, po‐
rous side walls, cuts and punctures. Any defects found must
be advised to the customer and the customer's attention must
be drawn to any necessary repair measures!
Inspecting tyre wear
– The wear pattern on the front tyres makes it possible to assess
whether it is necessary to inspect the wheel toe and camber:
♦ The formation of ridges on the tyre tread is an indication of
wheel toe errors.
♦ Tread worn on one side is usually attributable to camber er‐
rors.

– Position the inspection pin - T40139A- with the bead onto the
outer tread of the tyre -arrow-.
– Slide the grinder -3- of the inspection pin fully onto the pin
-1-.
– Move the pin -1- with the grinder of the inspection pin -3- in
such a way that the measurement pin of the inspection pin
-4- rests fully against the inner tread of the tyre.
– Remove the inspection pin and read off the tyre tread depth
(in mm) on the scale -2- (with tyre symbol) of the inspection
pin .
Note
♦ Check the tread depth at several points on the total tyre cir‐
cumference.
♦ The tread depth should be the same on the total tyre circum‐
ference.
♦ If the tread depth on the total tyre circumference significantly
varies, this is probably due to a wheel imbalance. The cus‐
tomer should be informed of the necessary repair measures.

Note
The tyre inspection display operates via the ABS speed sensors,
which compare the wheel rotations and through this also the
wheel circumferences. In case of a change in the wheel circum‐
ference, the warning light in the dash panel insert lights up.
The tyre circumference can change, if
• the tyre pressure is too low
• the tyre structure is damaged
• the vehicle is loaded on one side
• the wheels on an axle are heavily loaded (e.g when operating
a trailer, on steep gradients).
• Snow chains are installed
• an emergency wheel is installed
• a wheel is changed on an axle.
A calibration is required at each pressure change, at each tyre
change (also change from front to rear) and after working on the
chassis in the workshop, which has an influence on the tyre in‐
spection display.
The tyre inspection display has a warning light in the dash panel
insert.
