All turn signals flash twice to confirm that the vehicle has been unlocked and once to confirm that it
has been locked.
If the vehicle was unlocked and within the next few seconds neither a door nor the luggage
compartment lid has been opened, the vehicle is automatically locked again.
Unlocking and opening doors (Keyless Entry)
x Grasp the door handle of the driver or front passenger door so that you touch the unlocking sensor
surface ⇒ fig. 26 (A).
x Open the door.
Closing and locking doors (Keyless Exit)
x Switch the ignition off.
x Close the driver door.
x Touch the sensor surface in the door handle on the driver or front passenger door (B). The vehicle
is locked. The door being locked must be closed.
Unlocking and locking the luggage compartment lid
If the vehicle is locked and a valid remote control vehicle key is within range ⇒ fig. 25 of the luggage
compartment lid, it unlocks automatically when opened.
Open and close the luggage compartment lid as you would a standard luggage compartment lid 51
The luggage compartment lid locks automatically when it is closed except in the following situations:
x The vehicle is completely unlocked.
x When an authorized remote control vehicle key is inside the vehicle.
Locking with a second vehicle key
If a remote control vehicle key is inside the passenger compartment, the vehicle can be locked from
the outside only if a second valid remote control vehicle key is within range.
When the vehicle is locked from the outside, the keyless go (starting) function of any keys left in the
passenger compartment will be deactivated. All other functions (remote central locking and unlocking
as well as emergency starting) remain active and unchanged.
A key that was inside the vehicle when it was locked from the outside is reactivated:
x by pressing a button on the deactivated key.
x by pressing a door handle sensor when the deactivated key is outside of the vehicle, but within
range.
x by starting the engine with the starter button.
Automatic deactivation of sensors
If the vehicle has not been unlocked or locked for a longer period of time, the proximity sensors in the
passenger door are automatically deactivated.
If a sensor on the door handle of a locked vehicle is activated too often, for instance by a bush or
hedge that rubs against the vehicle, the sensors in the door handle on that side of the vehicle are
switched off for a short time.
The door handle sensors become active again if one of the following events occurs:
x A short time has passed.
x OR: The vehicle is unlocked using the 0 button in the remote control vehicle key.
x OR: The luggage compartment lid is opened.
x OR: The vehicle is mechanically unlocked with the vehicle key.

Please start engine!
The vehicle battery is drained to the point that it cannot provide
the power needed to completely open or close the CSC roof.
Start the engine, by jump-starting if necessary . Open or close
the CSC roof while the engine is running. Volkswagen
recommends taking a longer drive afterwards to recharge the
vehicle battery.

Wait for a short time until the hydraulic and electrical unit cool
down; they may have overheated. Opening and closing the
CSC roof with great frequency may cause the hydraulic and
electrical unit to overheat. Overload protection disables the roof
until the unit cools down.
Convertible top open The message and an acoustic signal confirm that the CSC roof
is completely open or closed. Convertible top closed

Owners Manual!
Check the outside temperature shown in the instrument cluster
display. At temperatures below +5 °F (-15 °C) you can close
the CSC roof, but not open it.
Have the system checked by an authorized Volkswagen dealer
or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. There is a
malfunction in an ECU. It is not possible to open or close the
roof. Use emergency procedure to close an open CSC roof if
necessary

The instrument cluster displays and their arrangement may vary depending on the vehicle model
and engine. For displays without warning and information messages, malfunctions are only signaled
with indicator lights.
General information

Fig. 31 The CSC roof folds down into the luggage compartment when you open the roof (put the roof down).

WARNING
Accidents and severe injuries can result if the CSC roof is opened or closed when someone
is in the way.
x Never open or close the CSC roof unless the vehicle is parked at a safe distance from
traffic.
x Do not open or close the CSC roof unless you have made sure that nobody is in the way
of the luggage compartment lid, the roof system, or other moving parts.
x Check to make sure that the closed CSC roof is securely latched.
x If CSC roof operation is interrupted, please note the following:
– The CSC roof may not stop moving immediately. Gravity may cause the CSC roof to
keep moving.
– Gradually (may take up to 8 minutes), the CSC roof will automatically lower itself into a
balanced position.
– The CSC roof is, however not latched in this position. Stop!
WARNING
If interruption of opening or closing process causes the roof to come to rest in its forward
position, the roof will not be latched.
x If you are unable to get the CSC roof to close “normally,” latch the roof using the
emergency closing procedure
x Watch for a message in the instrument cluster display indicating whether the roof has
been properly closed.
NOTICE
Frequent opening and closing of the CSC roof drains the vehicle battery. To help prevent the
battery from running down, you should keep the engine running if you need to open and close
the roof frequently.
NOTICE
If the CSC roof is open, rain could enter the vehicle and wet the interior, causing vehicle
damage.
x Always close the CSC roof and lock the doors and the luggage compartment before leaving
the vehicle.
NOTICE
The height of the vehicle changes when the CSC roof is moving. When there is not enough
room above the vehicle, for example in a garage, the CSC roof could hit something and be
damaged.
x Always make sure that there is enough room above the vehicle when opening or closing the
CSC roof.
If you park vehicle with the roof down, the passenger compartment can be damaged by rain or
snow, and it is also open to unauthorized persons. Volkswagen recommends closing the CSC roof

WARNING
The Automatic Rollover Support System can cause serious injuries if persons or objects are
in the way when it deploys.
x Never use accessory seat covers or protective covers that block the rollover protection
deployment area.
x Every rear seat passenger must be properly seated on a seat of his or her own and must
stay in a proper seating position at all times.
x Always keep the area around the supports free of anything that could interfere with their
deployment or fly about and injure occupants when the supports deploy.
x Never take the covers off the Automatic Rollover Support System.
x Never attach a child seat, child restraints, straps, or anything else to the rollover
protection supports.
WARNING
If there is a system malfunction, the Automatic Rollover Support System may cause serious
injuries by not deploying properly, by not deploying at all, or by deploying unexpectedly.
x If a malfunction exists in the system, have it checked immediately by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. A malfunction exists in the
system if the indicator light:
– does not come on when the ignition is turned on;
– does not go out about 5 seconds after you start the engine;
– goes out after switching on the ignition and then comes back on again;
– comes on or flickers when you are driving.
NOTICE
If deployed, the Automatic Rollover Support System can damage the CSC roof when opening
or closing the top.
x Do not open or close the CSC roof if the Automatic Rollover Support System has deployed.

The physical principles of a frontal collision are simple. Both the moving vehicle and the passenger
possess energy ⇒ fig. 54, which varies with vehicle speed and body weight. Engineers call this energy
“kinetic energy.”
The higher the speed of the vehicle and the greater the vehicle's weight, the more energy has to be
“absorbed” in a crash.
Vehicle speed is the most significant factor. If your speed doubles (for example, from 15 mph to
30 mph – 25 km/h to 50 km/h), the energy increases 4 times!
Because the occupants of the vehicle in the above example are not using safety belts, they are not
“attached” to the vehicle. In a frontal collision, they will keep moving at the same speed the vehicle
was moving just before the crash, until something stops them - here, the inside of the passenger
compartment. Because the occupants of the vehicle in the example are not wearing safety belts, their
entire kinetic energy will be absorbed by impact with the wall ⇒ fig. 55.
The same principles apply to people in a vehicle that is in a frontal collision on the highway. Even at
city speeds of 20–30 mph (30–50 km/h), the forces acting on the body can reach one ton (2,000 lbs or
1,000 kg) or more. At greater speeds, these forces are even higher.
Of course, the laws of physics don't apply just to frontal collisions; they determine what happens in all
kinds of accidents and collisions.
