How to use? See page 13 in the "Supplement California" of your owners manual pack.

WHY do people not read the operating manuals !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess the majority of owners of any new toy/gadget/purchase will never read the manual cover to cover, i never do. The excitement takes over and you just want to enjoy your new purchase and as most come with a 'Getting Started' section that's about as far as you get until you need to look up a problem or how to do something specific.

Is the cali any different? The dealer (if new) is likely to have given the new owner the 'How to Use' basics of the camper side and they hopefully know how to drive, so in theory there are good to go in all but the most advanced functions and what random bits of plastic are.

Maybe the dealer or indeed VW should put a label on the bag to give the owner a clue as to what these are. At least you then have something to search for in the manual or on the web.

I hope you never need to know what it is meant for.
I have them in the Cali all the time, but luckily never had the need to use it.
