Visibility -> Sunshade for Your Volkswagen Atlas SUV Second Generation (2024-2025)

If outside mirrors are not folded in when driving through a car wash, they can get damaged.  
Always fold in the outside mirrors.  
NOTICE  
Folding in the power exterior mirror manually can worsen wear and tear or damage the mirror motor.  
Do not fold power exterior mirrors in or out by hand.  
Leave the outside mirror heating on only as long as it is needed. Otherwise fuel will be used unnecessarily.  
If there is a malfunction in the power outside mirror, you can adjust the position of the mirror manually by hand by pushing  
on the edge of the mirror surface.

Adjustment options for the sun visor

Illuminated vanity mirror  
160  
When the sun visor is folded down, there is a vanity mirror located behind a cover. The lights fig. 87 turn on when the cover  
fig. 87 slides open.  
The lighting for the vanity mirror switches off in the following situations:  
The cover is closed.  
The sun visor is swung upwards or fully forwards.  
The sun visor is pushed in a longitudinal direction or not fully pushed in.  
WARNING  
Visibility may be reduced when sun visors are folded down and the sunshades are extended. This can cause accidents  
and serious or fatal injuries.  
Always guide sun visors and sunshades back into their holders when they are no longer needed.  
Under certain conditions, the light above the sun visor will turn off automatically after several minutes. This reduces the  
risk of the 12 V vehicle battery being drained.  
Sunshade in the sunroof  
Fig. 88 In the headliner: Function keys for controlling the sunshade.  
The power sunshade only works when the ignition is switched on.  
When the sunroof is tilted all the way open, the sunshade automatically moves into a position that provides ventilation. The  
sunshade will remain in the ventilation position after the tilting and sliding panoramic sunroof is closed.  
Opening the sunshade

over the function key again.

Automatic process: Swipe forward on the function key fig. 88. The automatic process is interrupted if you tap or swipe  
over the function key again.  
Manual process: Swipe forward on the function key and hold until it reaches the desired position.  
Sunshade pinch protection  
The pinch protection can reduce the risk of being pinched and injured when the sunshade is closing ⇒  
. If the sunshade  
encounters resistance or an obstacle when closing, the sunroof will open again immediately.  
1. Check why the sunroof did not close.  
2. Try again to close the sunshade.  
If the sunshade still encounters resistance or an obstacle and will not close, open the sunshade again. Within a short time  
after opening, you can close the sunshade again without pinch protection.  
3. If the sunshade is still not able to close, close the sunshade without pinch protection.  
Closing the sunshade without pinch protection  
1. Try again to close the sunshade.  
2. If the sunshade still cannot be closed, swipe forward on the function key within 5 seconds fig. 88 and hold until the  
sunshade is completely closed.  
This will close the sunshade without pinch protection.  
3. If the sunshade still will not close, contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for  
assistance. Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service  
Facility.  
If you release the function key during the closing process, the sunshade will open again automatically.  
Control is responding differently than expected  
Moisture, dirt and grease may limit the functioning of the control.  
1. Always keep the control clean and dry.  
WARNING  
Closing the sunshade without pinch protection may result in serious injuries.  
Always be careful when closing the sunshade.  
Ensure that nobody is within the range of operation of the sunshade, especially if it is closing without pinch  
protection.
