Opening and closing -> SAFELOCK for Your Volkswagen Touran 4 Door Third Generation (2022-2025)

SAFELOCK  
Your vehicle may be equipped with a SAFE lock.  
The SAFE lock deactivates the door handles when the vehicle is locked to reduce the risk of someone breaking into  
the vehicle. The doors can no longer be opened from the inside  
.
Deactivating SAFE lock  
The SAFE lock can be deactivated through one of the following methods:  
Press the button on the vehicle key for a second time within two seconds.  
For vehicles with Keyless Access with push-button start:Touch the sensors on the outside of the door handle  
again within two seconds .  
Switch the ignition on.  
Or: Deactivate the interior monitoring and towing protection functions (→ Interior monitoring and towing  
protection).  
Depending on vehicle equipment, the interior monitoring and towing protection functions can be temporarily  
deactivated in the Vehicle settings menu in the Infotainment system before locking the vehicle (→ Interior monitoring  
and towing protection).  
The instrument cluster display may indicate an active SAFELOCK.  
If the SAFE lock is deactivated, then:  
The vehicle can be unlocked and opened from the inside using the door handle.  
The anti-theft alarm system is active (→ Anti-theft alarm system).  
The interior monitoring and towing protection functions are deactivated (→ Interior monitoring and towing  
protection).  
WARNING  
When SAFELOCK is activated, the doors can no longer be opened from the inside. Careless or unintended use of  
SAFELOCK can result in people being locked in the vehicle interior and can cause serious injuries in an emergency.  
Never leave any individuals in the vehicle when the vehicle is locked using the vehicle key.  
Unlocking the driver’s door mechanically using the vehicle key will only unlock that door, and not the entire  
vehicle. Once the ignition is switched on, all doors will be released but not unlocked, and the central locking  
button will be activated.
