Please note that Volkswagen warns against leaving the vehicle unattended with the engine running, particularly in enclosed spaces.
2) ¹Airbags are supplemental restraints only and will not deploy under all crash circumstances. Always use safety belts and seat children only in the rear, using restraint systems appropriate for their size and age.
