WARNING

Careless or unintended use of the power windows can cause serious injuries.

Do not open or close the power windows if anyone is in the way.

Always take all vehicle keys with you when leaving the vehicle.

Note that the windows can still be opened or closed using the door buttons for a brief period after the ignition has

been switched off, as long as the driver's or front passenger door is not opened.

When driving with children seated on the rear bench seat, always disable the rear power windows so that the

windows cannot be opened or closed.

WARNING

If the vehicle is locked, the windows can no longer be opened and will prevent people from escaping from the vehicle

interior. In an emergency, this could cause serious or fatal injuries.

Never leave children or people requiring assistance unattended in the vehicle when the vehicle is locked.

NOTICE

If the windows are open, precipitation can enter the vehicle and soak the interior equipment, which could restrict the

function of the controls or damage them.

Close all windows if there is precipitation.

If the power windows are malfunctioning, the one-touch opening and closing function and the pinch protection may not

function correctly. Contact a suitably qualified professional. Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen

dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

Convenience opening and closing only functions if the one-touch opening and closing function is activated for all the

power windows.

Power window pinch protection

The power window pinch protection can reduce the risk of being pinched and injured when the windows are closing.

If the window cannot close due to resistance or an obstacle, then the window will reopen immediately ⇒

1. Check why the window did not close.

2. Try again to close the window.

If the window will not close again, then the pinch protection will be disabled for several seconds.

If the window still cannot close, then the window will stop at the place where it meets resistance. If you press the switch again

within several seconds, the window will close without pinch protection ⇒

Closing windows without pinch protection

1. Try to close the windows again within a few seconds by holding the switch. This will disable the pinch protection.

If the closing process takes longer than several seconds, then pinch protection will be enabled again. If there is resistance

to the window moving or an obstacle is blocking the window, then the window will reopen automatically.

2. If the window still cannot close, then contact a suitably qualiﬁed professional. Volkswagen recommends contacting an

113

authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

WARNING

Closing the window when pinch protection is disabled can result in serious injuries.

Always be careful when closing the windows.

Do not close windows if anyone is in the way.

Note that the pinch protection does not prevent ﬁngers or body parts from being trapped against the window frame.

Pinch protection also occurs when using the convenience closing function with the vehicle key.

Troubleshooting

One-touch up/down feature

2. Close all windows and doors.

3. Pull the switch for the desired window and hold it in that position for several seconds.
