Closing the sunroof without pinch protection may result in serious injuries.
Always be careful when closing the power sunroof.
Never allow anyone to be within the sunroof range of operation, especially if it is closing without pinch protection.
The pinch protection does not prevent fingers or other parts of the body from becoming injured by being pressed against the roof frame.
Pinch protection also occurs when convenience closing the windows and sunroof with the vehicle key.
Troubleshooting
If the sunroof is not closing
The sunroof only works when the ignition is on. The sunroof can still be opened or closed for a brief period after the ignition has been switched off, as long as
the driver’s or front passenger's door has not been opened.
If it is not possible to close the sunroof using the power controls, the sunroof must be closed manually. Some vehicle components must be removed in order to
close the sunroof manually. Contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Volkswagen recommends contacting an
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Controls are responding differently than expected
Moisture, dirt and grease may limit the functioning of the controls.
1. Always keep the control panels clean and dry.
