Keys
Your Volkswagen comes with two sets of
keys:
The key with the elongated head (A) is
for the doors and the ignition/steering
lock.
The key with the round head (B) is for
the glove compartment door of the
Convertible.
Do not Invite car theft
by leaving your car unattended with the
key In the ignition lock. Take the key
with you and lock the doors.
A buzzer will remind you when you open
the driver's door and the key is still in the
ignition lock.
