Synchronizing the remote control vehicle key

WARNING
Improper use of power locks can result in serious personal injury.
x The power locking button locks all doors. Locking the doors from the inside can help prevent unintended door opening during a collision and can also prevent unwanted entry from the outside. Locked doors can, however, delay assistance to vehicle occupants and rescue from the outside in an accident or other emergency.
x Never leave children or anyone who cannot help themselves behind in the vehicle. All doors can be locked from the inside with the power lock button. This could leave people trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. Depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
x A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depending 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, particu-larly to small children.
x Never allow passengers to remain in a locked vehicle. In an emergency any person still inside the vehicle might not be able to get out.
Indicator light in the driver door

When the ignition is switched on, several warning and indicator lights come on briefly for a function check. They go out after a few seconds.
If a door is not closed properly, the  warning light in the instrument cluster comes on showing an open door.
Depending on vehicle options, a symbol may be displayed in the instrument cluster instead of the warning light. The symbol will still be displayed even after the ignition is switched off. The instrument cluster display goes out about 15 seconds after the vehicle has been locked.
Electric child safety locks

Fig. 29 In the driver door: Buttons for the electric child safety locks.

WARNING
When the electric child safety lock is engaged, that rear door cannot be opened from the inside.
x Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot help themselves, in the vehicle when locking the doors. This could result in people being locked in the vehicle. This could result in people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. Depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
x A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depending on the season. Particularly in the summer, heat build-up 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, particu-larly to small children.

The rear hatch will then move into closing position by itself and will be closed by the soft-close feature
⇒ .
If, while closing automatically, the rear hatch meets resistance or becomes blocked by an obstacle, it will reopen slightly.
Check to see why the rear hatch could not close.
Try again to close the rear hatch.
Canceling the opening or closing feature
You can stop the opening or closing of the rear hatch by pressing one of the & buttons a second time. Pressing one of the & buttons again makes the hatch move back to its original position.
You can then open the hatch further by hand. This requires some strength.
Saving the opening angle
The rear hatch must be at least half way open to be able to save the opening angle.
x Stop the opening process at the desired opening angle
x Press the ⇒ fig. 32 button in the open rear hatch ⇒  for at least 3 seconds. This saves the opening angle.

WARNING
Improper or unsupervised closing of the rear hatch can cause severe injuries.
x Never leave your vehicle unattended or let children play around your vehicle, especially with the rear hatch left open. A child could crawl into the vehicle and pull the rear hatch shut, becoming trapped and unable to get out. A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold depending on the season. Temperatures can quickly levels that can cause unconsciousness or death, particularly to small children.
WARNING
A closed rear hatch cannot open completely and an open rear hatch cannot close automati-cally if a luggage rack is installed on it or if it is covered by a heavy layer of snow. In this case, you will have to hold the rear hatch or prop it up to keep it open.
NOTICE

If the sunroof malfunctions or pinch protection does not operate properly. See an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.
If the power sunroof malfunctions, pinch protection may not function properly. See an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.

If you cannot untwist the safety belt, wear it anyway. Make sure that the safety belt is twisted in a spot where it does not come in direct contact with your body. Have the safety belt untwisted immediately by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Lockable safety belt
The retractors for the rear seat safety belts and the front passenger safety belt have a switchable locking feature for child restraints in addition to the emergency locking feature. Whenever a child restraint is installed with a safety belt, the safety belt must be locked so that the safety belt webbing cannot unreel. The switchable locking feature lets you lock the belt so that a child restraint can be properly installed and, for example, so that it can't tip to the side when the vehicle goes around a
corner ⇒ page Error! Bookmark not defined., Child safety and child restraints.
To see whether a safety belt is lockable, pull the safety belt all the way out of the safety belt retractor. You should then hear a “clicking” sound as the belt winds back into the retractor reel. Test the switch-able locking feature by pulling on the belt. When the switchable locking feature is active, you should no longer be able to pull the belt out of the retractor.
The locking feature must be deactivated when a vehicle occupant uses the safety belt.
WARNING
Improper use and care of safety belts increases the risk of severe personal injury or death.
x Regularly check safety belts and related parts for damage.
x Damaged safety belts must be replaced; they cannot be repaired.
x Always keep safety belts clean.
x Never catch, damage or chafe safety belt webbing on sharp edges.
x Always keep objects and liquids away from the belt buckle and buckle opening.

Outlet
⇒ fig. 130
(2)
Maximum power draw
115 Volts 150 watts (300 watts peak consumption)

The maximum power draw at any one outlet must never be exceeded. Electrical devices should have information on them that says how much power they draw.
115 Volt outlet
The outlet can only be used if the engine is running .
Connecting an electrical device: Insert the plug as far as it goes into the outlet in order to unlock the integrated childproof lock. There is electricity in the outlet only after the childproof lock is unlocked.

LED display on the outlet
Green continuous
light:
The child-proof lock is un-
locked. The outlet is opera-
tional.
Red flashing light: Malfunction, such as cutoff due
to current overload or over-
heating.

Opening and closing the cover in the rear center console
x Reach into the recess from below; fold the cover up in the direction of the arrow and hold it open.
x The cover is spring-loaded and closes when you let it go.
Overheating cutoff
The inverter in the 115 Volt outlet shuts off automatically above a certain temperature. The shutoff prevents overheating in case of excessive power consumption of connected devices or at high ambi-ent air temperatures. The inverter switches back on automatically after a cool-down period. Connected devices which were left switched on come back on again. For this reason, switch off connected electri-cal devices if the inverter switches off due to overheating.
DANGER
Improper use of the 115 Volt outlet can cause electrical shock, burns, and severe personal injury.
x Never spill liquids on the socket.
x Never plug an adapter or an extension cord into the 115 Volt outlet. Otherwise, the inte-grated child-proof lock is switched off and the outlet is live.
x Never stick anything that conducts electricity, such as a knitting needle, into the contacts of the 115 Volt outlet.

WARNING
Improper use of vehicle keys can result in serious personal injury.
x Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle. The engine can be started and vehicle systems such as the power windows can be operated, leading to serious personal injury.
x Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot 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. For example, depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
x Heat build-up 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, particularly in summer. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particularly to small children.
x Never remove the key from the ignition switch while the vehicle is moving or rolling to a stop. The steering wheel will lock and you will not be able to steer or control the vehicle.
Leaving the key in the ignition for a long time when the engine is not running will drain the vehicle battery.
Leaving the selector lever for a long period of time in any position other than Park (P) when the ignition is switched off can drain the vehicle battery.
The vehicle key can be removed from the ignition switch only when the transmission is in Park (P). You may have to press the release button on the transmission selector lever to put the lever into Park (P).
