lock VOLKSWAGEN CC 2015 Owner´s Manual

Only use maintenance-free vehicle batteries meeting standards
TL 825 06 and VW 7 50 73. These standards must date from Au-
gust 2008 or later.
Disconnecting the vehicle battery
If the battery must be disconnected from the vehicle's electrical sys-
tem, note the following:
Switch off all electrical systems and devices and the ignition.
Unlock the vehicle before disconnecting the battery; otherwise the
alarm system will go off.
First disconnect the negative cable (-) and then the positive cable
(+) ⇒ .
Connecting the vehicle battery
Prior to reconnecting the battery, switch off all electrical systems
and devices and the ignition.
Connect the positive cable (+) first and then the negative cable (-)
⇒ .
After the battery is connected and the ignition is switched on, different
indicator lights may come on. They should go out after you drive a
short distance at 10–12 mph (15–20 km/h). If the indicator lights do
not go out, contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility and have the vehicle checked.
If the battery was disconnected for a long time, the next scheduled
service may not be correctly calculated and displayed ⇒ page 12,
Instrument cluster. The maximum permissible service and mainte-
nance intervals are shown in the ⇒ Booklet Warranty and Mainte-
nance.
Vehicles with Keyless Access
If the ignition will not start after reconnecting the vehicle battery, lock
the vehicle from the outside and unlock it again ⇒  Unlocking or lock-
ing the vehicle with Keyless Access, ⇒  Unlocking or locking the vehi-
cle with Keyless Access. Then try to start the ignition again. If the
ignition cannot be switched on, contact an authorized Volkswagen
dealer, an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility, or another quali-
fied workshop for assistance.

Automatic electrical load deactivation
If the vehicle battery drain is high, the intelligent onboard electrical
system management automatically takes steps to help prevent bat-
tery drain.
The idle speed is increased so that the alternator provides more
power.
The power to devices that consume a lot of electricity is cut back or
switched off completely.
When the engine is started, the power supply to the 12 Volt sockets
is temporarily interrupted.
The onboard electrical system management cannot always keep the
battery from being drained. For example, the battery will drain if the
engine is not running, but the ignition is switched on or the parking
lights are left on for a long time when parked.
Battery disconnection in an accident with airbag deployment
In vehicles with a battery in the luggage compartment, the electrical
connection to the battery is disconnected automatically in a collision
with airbag deployment. This helps to prevent a short-circuit.
What drains the vehicle battery?
Long periods when the engine is not running, especially when the
ignition is on.
Using electrical systems or devices when the engine is switched
off.
Leaving the vehicle unlocked for several days when not in use.
The selector lever is left for a long period of time in any position
other than P when the ignition is switched off ⇒  Automatic transmis-
sion: Selector lever.
WARNING
Failure to use the proper battery with proper mounting and
connections may cause short circuits, fires, and serious per-
sonal injuries.
Always use only maintenance-free or cycle-free, leak-proof
batteries with the same specifications and dimensions as the
original equipment battery. Specifications are listed on the bat-
tery housing.

Rinse the sponge or glove thoroughly and often.
Clean the wheels and under the door sills last. Use a different sponge
or wash mitt.
WARNING
After the vehicle has been washed, the wet brakes or, in winter,
brake discs or pads coated with ice, react slower and need
longer stopping distances.
Always dry the brakes and clean off any ice coatings with a
few careful applications of the brake. Make sure not to endan-
ger other motorists or cyclists or disobey legal requirements.
CAUTION
Sharp edges under the vehicle can cut exposed skin.
Always protect your hands and arms from cuts on sharp
metal edges when cleaning the underbody, the inside of the
wheel housings, etc.
NOTICE
The water temperature must not be more than +140 °F
(+60 °C).
To help prevent damage to the paint, do not wash the vehicle
in direct sunlight.
Do not use insect sponges, abrasive kitchen sponges or simi-
lar things to clean the vehicle. These can damage the paint fin-
ish.
Never clean headlights with a dry cloth or sponge. Always use
a wet cloth or sponge. For best results use soapy water.
When washing or rinsing the vehicle in cold weather, do not
let water get into the lock cylinders or point the hose at gaps
around the doors, hood, or luggage compartment lid. The water
could freeze on the locks and seals and make it difficult to open
the vehicle!

NOTICE
To help prevent vehicle damage in a car wash:
Compare the vehicle track width with the dimensions of the
guide rails in the car wash to help prevent damage to wheel rims
and tires!
Switch off the rain sensor before driving the vehicle through a
car wash ⇒  Rain sensor.
Make sure there is enough clearance for the height and width
of the vehicle.
To help prevent paint damage to the engine hood, place wiper
blades against the windshield after they have dried. Do not let
them snap back into place.
Fold the outside mirrors toward the vehicle body. Do not fold
power folding mirrors manually!
Lock the luggage compartment lid to help prevent uninten-
tional opening in the car wash.
Washing with a power washer

WARNING
Improper use of power washers can cause serious invisible
permanent damage leading to tire failure and loss of vehicle
control. This can cause accidents and severe personal injury.
Keep sufficient distance between water jet and tires. Never
wash tires with a nozzle that sprays the water out in a direct
stream regardless of the distance to the tire and even for a very
short time.
Never use “dirt blasters” to clean tires. Even spraying from a
relatively long distance for a very short time can do visible or
invisible damage to tires.
WARNING
After the vehicle has been washed, the wet brakes or, in winter,
brake discs or pads coated with ice, react slower and need
longer stopping distances.
Always dry the brakes and clean off any ice coatings with a
few careful applications of the brake. Make sure not to endan-
ger other motorists or cyclists or disobey legal requirements.
NOTICE
Water temperature should not be more than +140 °F (+60 °C).
To help prevent damage to the paint, do not wash the vehicle
in direct sunlight.
In order for Park Distance Control to work correctly, the sen-
sors in the rear bumper must be kept clean and clear of snow
and ice.
When using a power washer or steam cleaner, only spray the
sensors directly for a short period of time and always keep the
nozzle at least 4 inches (10 cm) from the sensor.
Do not clean icy or snow-covered windows with a power
washer.
When washing or rinsing the vehicle in cold weather, do not
let water get into the lock cylinders or point the hose at gaps
around the doors, hood, or luggage compartment lid. The water

could freeze on the locks and seals and make it difficult to open
the vehicle!

WARNING
Serious injuries can result if the emergency closing and open-
ing procedures are used carelessly.
Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who can-
not help themselves in the vehicle. The doors can be locked
with the remote control vehicle key. This could result in people
being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency.
A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depend-
ing on the season. Particularly in the summer, heat buildup in
the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle
can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are much higher
than the outside temperatures. Temperatures can quickly reach
levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particularly
to small children.
WARNING
Careless opening and closing of the doors, the luggage com-
partment lid, and the power sunroof is dangerous and can
cause serious personal injury.
Open or close the doors, the luggage compartment lid, and
the power sunroof only when no one is in the way.
NOTICE
If the vehicle's battery fails or the power windows won't work,
the door windows are not lowered when the door is opened or
closed. Always close and open the door carefully to help prevent
damage to the window, the paint, or the rubber seal.
NOTICE
To help prevent vehicle damage, carefully remove and properly
reinstall parts after emergency locking or unlocking.
