If non-winterized or insufficiently winterized diesel fuel has already thickened to the point that the engine will not start, move the vehicle to a heated garage or workshop until it has warmed up. Cold diesel engines normally produce louder noises during winter conditions than during warmer periods. In addition, the exhaust gases may be light blue in color until the engine has warmed up. The exhaust gas volume varies depending on the outside temperature. Do not let your diesel engine idle unnecessarily after a cold start. Driving off slowly will shorten the warm-up period. WARNING Starting fluids can explode and cause a run-away vehicle condition. x Never use starting assist fluids. NOTICE x The vehicle's diesel engine was designed solely for use with ULSD fuel. For this reason, never use gasoline, heating oil, or other fuels that have not been expressly approved for use with the diesel engine. These fuels contain substances that will severely damage the fuel system and the engine. Such damage will not be covered by any Volkswagen Limited Warranty. x If you put any amount of the incorrect fuel in the fuel tank, do not sartt the engine under any circumstances. Immediately contact the nearest authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance. x If diesel fuel should get on any rubber hose, it must be wiped off immediately. The same applies if diesel fuel gets onto other parts of the vehicle, especially paint, tires, or a plastic part. Wash the contaminated vehicle parts right away with soap and warm water to help prevent leaks and serious damage. x The vehicle is designed to run on diesel fuel containing methyl ester biodiesel in concentrations of 5% or less. Never use methyl ester biodiesel in blend levels higher than 5% (5% methyl ester blends are sometimes designated or labeled as B5). The properties of methyl ester biodiesel blends in levels greater than 5% may cause serious damage to the fuel injection system and to the engine. This could lead to expensive repairs that will not be covered by any Volkswagen Limited Warranty. x Damage to the engine and fuel system and performance problems caused by using fuels that are different from those specified above or by using “starting assist fluids” are not the responsibility of Volkswagen and are not covered under the Emission warranties or any other Volkswagen Limited Warranty.
