If a remote control vehicle key is inside the passenger compartment, the vehicle can be locked from the outside only if a second valid 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 on the front center console.
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 30 minutes.
The sensors become active again when the vehicle is locked with the vehicle key and the ignition is switched on one time.
The sensors become active again if one of the following events occurs:
x 30 minutes have passed.
x OR: The vehicle is unlocked using the 0 button in the remote control vehicle key.
x OR: The rear hatch is opened.
x OR: The vehicle is mechanically unlocked using the emergency vehicle key.
Convenience features
To use the convenience closing feature to close all power windows, hold your finger on the lock sensor surface (2) on the outside of the door handle for a few seconds until the windows close.
Remove your finger from the lock sensor surface (2) to stop the function. If you touch the unlock sensor surface 1 on the inside of the door handle immediately after releasing the lock sensor surface 1 (arrow), all of the windows will open (safety function). Pinch protection is active during convenience closing of the windows.
The settings in the Settings – Convenience menu ⇒ Volkswagen Information System determine which doors open when the door handle sensor surface is touched.

NOTICE
The door handle sensor surfaces can be activated by a strong stream of water or steam if a valid vehicle key is within range of the vehicle. All windows may open if you turn the spray of water or steam away from and then back onto the door handle sensor surface in quick succession.
The door may not open if the outside and inside door handles are used at the same time.
If the automatic transmission is not in Park (P) position, the electronic steering column lock will not lock and the vehicle will not lock via sensors in the front door handles or the remote control vehicle key.
If the vehicle battery or the battery in the remote control vehicle key is weak or dead, it might not be possible to unlock and lock the vehicle using Keyless Access The vehicle can still be manually
locked or unlocked with the emergency key ⇒ Opening and closing.
The driver message Key not in range appears in the instrument cluster display if there is no remote control vehicle key inside the vehicle or if the system does not recognize the remote control vehicle key. The key may not be recognized, for example, if it is covered by something that interferes with the signal (such as a briefcase), or if the remote control vehicle key battery is weak. Electronic devices such as mobile phones can also interfere with the signal.
Dirt on the door handles that contains a lot of salt (especially in winter) can affect the way the
door handle sensors work. Cleaning the door handles can help with this problem ⇒ Exterior care and cleaning.

Deactivating the alarm
Unlock the vehicle with the unlock button on the remote control vehicle key and switch on the ignition with a valid remote control vehicle key.
For vehicles with Keyless Access, the alarm can be deactivated by grasping one of the door handles when a valid vehicle key is in range or by holding the remote control vehicle key to the right of the
steering column trim and pressing the starter button ⇒ Unlocking or locking vehicles with Keyless Access.
After the alarm has stopped and the vehicle is opened again in the same or a different area that is protected by the alarm, the alarm is triggered again. For example, the alarm will sound again if the rear hatch is opened after one of the doors has been opened.
The anti-theft alarm system is not activated when the vehicle is locked with the power lock switch 1 on the inside of the driver or front passenger doors.
If the driver door is mechanically unlocked with the emergency key, only the driver door is unlocked, but not the entire vehicle.
