If testing equipment must be used during a road test, observe the following:






Distraction and testing equipment that is not secured properly can cause accidents.

The passenger airbag could pose a risk if it deploys in a collision.

Operating testing equipment while driving causes it to shift position.

There is an increased risk of injury due to unsecured testing equipment.

TT Coupe:

Always secure testing equipment on the rear seat using a strap and have a second person in the rear seat to operate it.

TT Roadster:

Position passenger's seat as far back as possible.

Only use the vehicle diagnosis and service information system (VAS 5052 A) or diagnostic system (VAS 5053).

Testing and measuring instruments - 1 - must lay flat on the passenger's thighs and be operated by him or her, as shown in the illustration.
