Volkswagen 2013 Jetta User manual

2013 Jetta SportWagen

For name’s sake. If you think about it, the Jetta SportWagen tells you everything you need to know right in its name.
We call it Jetta because it has the same comfort, style, and handling of its sedan counterpart. It
earns the sport from its sleek styling, nimble handling, and enduring performance. And with up to
66.9 cubic feet of ultra-practical, stuff-hauling space in the back,* it’s a wagon in the truest sense of
the word. Europe loves our wagon for its smart, family-friendly style. Turns out, America does too.
Eleven years and counting. That’s the Power of German Engineering.
2013 Jetta SportWagen*With rear seats folded down.

Let’s be honest. The beauty of having a wagon is the fact that
it holds so much. It makes having a family, or a hobby, or a
snowboarding obsession extremely easy. With the rear seats
down, you have 66.9 cubic feet of storage to play with. So
you can buy the screen printer, paint, and canvases you’ve
been coveting and follow your art passion anytime you
want. Or you can choose from thousands of other hobbies
and obsessions. The wagon is your oyster. So to speak.
The rear seats of the Jetta SportWagen fold down in what
we call a 60/40 split. So you can fold just one seat down
for a little extra space, or both seats down for a whopping
66.9 cubic feet of storage. We conquer you, big-screen TV.
It’s way bigger than a breadbox. Which is how it
swallows double-wide strollers whole. Entire palettes
of fl owers, bags of dirt, a shovel, and a hose slide
in back in a snap. A couple of rambunctious dogs?
They’ve even got space to stretch out.
Want to put a couple of bikes on the roof? How about a
kayak? Thanks to the available roof rack accessories, you
aren’t limited by just what you can fi t inside your Jetta
SportWagen. As if that actually felt limiting.

The wagon for grown-ups.
Technology
Back in the day, your little red wagon was simple in its construction and
purpose. Put stuff inside and pull. These days, you like a little more
sophistication with your wagon, but just enough to make the trip worthwhile.
Which is why the Jetta SportWagen gives you a few decisions to make. Like
the available touchscreen sound or navigation systems. Choose from
having loads of music at your fi ngertips or music and directions. Then
choose whether or not you’d like to have your new wagon in red. You
know, for nostalgia’s sake.

The space age. As adults, we really do need space. Space to put things. Space to relax.
Space to do what we want. It’s easy to make room for a Jetta SportWagen
in your life because it comes with so much of the space you crave and the
stuff you need. Like heated front seats and adjustable lumbar support. Not
to mention an available touchscreen sound system and a huge panoramic
sunroof. So if you need some “me time” with good music and a view of the
starry night above, take all the time and space you need.
• Front seats with adjustable lumbar support
• V-Tex leatherette seating surfaces*

transmission: 23 city/33 highway mpg. EPA estimates. Your mileage will var y.
At a fi lling station way, way back there, you fi lled up your Jetta
SportWagen TDI® with clean diesel. That could have been as
many as 609 miles ago,* in fact. And as your vehicle sipped fuel
at the wallet-friendly rate of 42 highway mpg,* you were busy
seeing the sights, or running errands, or picking up the kids, or
doing whatever else you wanted to do with your freedom.
The same is true of the 2.5L in-line 5-cylinder engine. It also gets
exceptional gas mileage while delivering the punch you need
when you step on the gas.** For a little extra thrill, shift it into the
available Sport mode, or push it over into Tiptronic® and put the
power of shifting gears back into your hands.
Once upon a time.

Safety
Safety
*Airbags 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. **The Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS) will only activate in a collision where the airbags deploy or safety belt
pretensioners activate. Not all collisions cause airbags to deploy or safety belt pretensioners to activate. †“Top Safety Pick” based on 31 mph side-impact crash test, 40 mph frontal-offset crash test,20 mph rear-impact test, roof strength testing, and the availability of ESC. Test performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway
Safety. For details, visit www.iihs.org.See vw.com for more information on safety features.
You know that German engineering you admire under the hood?
It’s actually throughout the entire car. There are more than a dozen
safety features specifi cally designed to help you prevent a collision.
And even more to help protect you in the event of one. So no matter
what happens, we’ll do our best to help keep you safe.
2012 IIHS Top Safety Pick. The Jetta SportWagen is
one of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s Top
Safety Picks.
† Actually, it’s one of nine 2012 Volkswagen
models to get their top award. That means all nine cars
scored the highest rating in all four qualifying tests.
That’s 36 instances of superior safety.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC). ESC helps prevent
oversteer or understeer during an evasive maneuver by
applying corrective forces to each of the wheels. In other
words, it helps you maintain control when you need it most.
Surrounded by safety. In addition to airbags,* every Jetta
SportWagen has a specially reinforced safety cage
complete with anti-intrusion side beams and heat-formed
B-pillars, designed to help protect you in the event of a
collision. Surrounding that are crumple zones that provide
space and material to help cushion and absorb the
impact while the safety cage insulates you.
ABS and HBA. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
helps keep the brakes from locking up during sudden
stops and helps you retain control over the steering
during emergency braking. Hydraulic Brake Assist
(HBA) works with ABS to help you get maximum power
from the brake system.
Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS). After the
airbags* have deployed in a collision, the ICRS automatically
unlocks all doors, disables the fuel pump, and turns on the
hazard lights.** That’s why we call it intelligent.
Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren (LAT C H).
LATCH allows you to secure child seats to your Jetta
SportWagen using specifi c built-in anchors that connect
the seat to the safety cage. When the child seat is
installed and used correctly, this helps maximize the
safety of the seats.

Changing your oil, rotating your tires, topping off the windshield
wiper fluid — do you remember to do all that stuff? Your car does.
Right there in your instrument panel. Both it and your dealer will
let you know when it’s time to schedule your appointment. And for
three years, or 36,000 miles, we’ve got you covered. That’s why
we call it carefree. Come by for a courtesy vehicle check within
the first 90 days, or 6,000 miles, and ask us any questions you
have while we give your Jetta SportWagen a basic checkup.
Then, come by every year, or 10,000 miles, for your remaining
scheduled maintenance checks. It’s that simple.
