NOTICE
The remote control vehicle keys contain electrical components. Protect them from damage,
moisture and rough handling.
Do not press the buttons on the remote control vehicle key unless 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 disrupted by interference from transmit-
ters near the vehicle that use the same frequency range (such as radio equipment or cellular 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 or the power locking buttons are pushed repeatedly in
quick succession, the power locking system is switched off for a brief period to help keep it from being
overloaded. The vehicle is then unlocked for about 30 seconds. Unless a door or the rear hatch is
opened in this span of time, the vehicle is automatically locked afterwards.

and expensive damage that will not be covered by any Volkswagen Limited Warranty. Special know-
ledge and tools are required to close the power sunroof if it will not close on its own. To help prevent
damage to the sunroof, have an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility help you close and repair the power sunroof.
