NOTICE
The remote control vehicle keys contain electrical components.

you actually want to use the function in question. Since terrain and
conditions vary, pressing a button on the remote control vehicle key
when it is not necessary may unlock the vehicle or set off the panic
alarm, even if you think you are out of range.
Remote control vehicle key functions can be temporarily disrupt-
ed by interference from transmitters near the vehicle that use the
same frequency range (such as radio equipment or mobile phones).
Things between the remote control vehicle key and vehicle, bad
weather, as well as a weak battery can reduce the operating range.
If the remote control vehicle key buttons ⇒ fig. 20 or the power
locking buttons⇒ Unlocking or locking the vehicle from the inside are

WARNING
Improper use of the HomeLink® Universal Transmitter can
cause serious or even fatal personal injury.
Garage doors operate with enough force to cause serious
personal injury.
Never let anyone get in the way of a garage door when it is
opening or closing.
When programming the HomeLink® Universal Transmitter,
you may be operating a garage door or estate gate. Always
make sure that people and objects are out of the way to help
prevent serious personal injury or property damage.
When operating the “training” button on a garage door open-
er with a rolling code, you will need to stand on a ladder or
step-stool. Always take extra precautions to prevent falls and
serious injury.
Never use the HomeLink® Universal Transmitter with any gar-
age door opener that does not have the safety stop-and-reverse
feature, as required by federal safety standards. This includes
any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1,
1982.
A garage door opener that cannot detect an object, signaling
the door to stop and reverse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury or death.
Follow the installation manual and the included safety infor-
mation from the manufacturer when using the remote-
controlled garage door opener or electrical drive.
NOTICE
The wrong batteries can damage the hand-held remote control.
Replace a dead battery with one that has the same voltage, size,
and specifications.
Please dispose of old batteries properly and in an environmental-
ly responsible manner. Always keep them out of the reach of children.

NOTICE
To help prevent damage to electrical parts in the seat, do not
kneel on the front seats or apply concentrated pressure to a
small area of the seat or backrest.
If the vehicle battery is too weak, the electrical seat adjustment
controls may not work.
Starting the engine may stop seat adjustment.
When entering and exiting the vehicle, be careful not to come into
contact with any switches that could change the seat adjustment.

sensor on vehicles with Keyless Access) and the driver door is
opened. If 2 people use the vehicle, each of them should always use
the key in which his or her personal settings have been stored.
Initializing the memory seats
The memory system must be initialized by an authorized Volkswagen
dealer, an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility, or another quali-
fied workshop in certain situations, for instance, if a new driver seat is
installed.
Initializing clears all memories and assignments of the memory seats.
After that, memory buttons can be reprogrammed and assigned to a
vehicle key.

Adjust the seats from the outside.
Move the angle of the backrest forward as far as it will go.
Release the backrest adjustment switch and press it again until you
