dow until all windows open and the sunroof tilts.

onds until the windows and the sunroof close
→ page 89, Unlocking or locking the vehicle with

the lock sensor surface to stop convenience open-
ing or closing.

WARNING
Improper use of power windows can result in seri-
ous personal injury.
·
Never let anyone get in the way of a power win-
dow when closing it.
·
When locking the vehicle from the outside,
make sure that no one, especially children, re-
mains in the vehicle. The windows will not open
in case of an emergency.
·
Always switch off the engine and the ignition
and take the key with you when you leave the
vehicle. You can still use the power windows for
several minutes after the ignition is switched
off as long as the driver or front passenger door
has not been opened.
·
Never leave children or disabled persons in the
vehicle – particularly if the ignition is on or a re-
mote control vehicle key is also in the vehicle.
Unsupervised use of the remote control vehicle

menu in the Info-
key makes it possible to lock the vehicle, start
the engine, turn on the ignition, and operate the
windows.
·
Always use the safety switch when children are
in the back seat to disable the rear power win-
dows and keep them from being opened and
closed.
NOTICE
If you leave the windows open, rain or other precipi-
tation may enter the vehicle from outside and can
damage the vehicle interior.
If the power windows malfunction, the one-
touch feature, as well as pinch protection may
not work properly. See an authorized Volkswagen
dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility
right away.
Convenience closing only works when the
one-touch feature is active.
Certain settings are automatically saved by
the driver personalization feature → page 30,
Driver personalization.
Power window pinch protection
Pinch protection can help reduce the risk of pinching
injuries when closing a power window →
touch window closing meets resistance or there is
something in the way, the window will stop and go
down again.
— Check why the window did not close.
— Try one-touch window closing again.
— If the window meets resistance a second time, so
that it stops and goes back down, one-touch clos-
ing is deactivated for about 10 seconds.
— If you pull the power window button up all the
way and hold it during this 10 second interval, the
window will close without pinch protection →
Closing the window without pinch protection
— Try to close the window again within 10 seconds
by holding the switch. Pinch protection is turned
off for a short distance in the window track!
— If closing takes longer than about 10 seconds,
pinch protection is turned on again. The window
stops again if there is resistance.
— If the window still will not close, see an author-
ized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswa-
gen Service Facility.
