2008 VOLKSWAGEN CC mirror

Lock the vehicle with locking button 1 in the vehicle key to store
the settings.
Once the settings are stored, the driver seat and the outside mirrors
move to the stored positions whenever the vehicle is unlocked with
the 0 button on the vehicle key (or unlocked with the door handle
sensor on vehicles with Keyless Access) and the driver door is
opened. If 2 people use the vehicle, each of them should always use
the key in which his or her personal settings have been stored.
Initializing the memory seats
The memory system must be initialized by an authorized Volkswagen
dealer, an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility, or another quali-
fied workshop in certain situations, for instance, if a new driver seat is
installed.
Initializing clears all memories and assignments of the memory seats.
After that, memory buttons can be reprogrammed and assigned to a
vehicle key.
Open the driver door but do not enter the vehicle.
Adjust the seats from the outside.
Move the angle of the backrest forward as far as it will go.
Release the backrest adjustment switch and press it again until you
hear a chime sound.

The 3%4 button is pressed again within about 10 seconds.
The seat position is readjusted within about 10 seconds after
pressing the 3%4 button.

Mirrors

WARNING
Auto-dimming mirrors contain an electrolyte fluid which can
leak if the mirror glass is broken. Electrolyte fluid can irritate
the skin, eyes, and respiratory system.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to electrolyte fluid can irri-
tate the respiratory system, especially among people with
asthma or other respiratory conditions. Get fresh air immediate-
ly by leaving the vehicle or, if that is not possible, open win-
dows and doors all the way.
If electrolyte fluid gets into the eyes, flush them thoroughly
with large amounts of clean water for at least 15 minutes; medi-
cal attention is recommended.
If electrolyte fluid contacts skin, flush affected area with
clean water for at least 15 minutes and then wash affected area
with soap and water; medical attention is recommended. Thor-
oughly wash affected clothing and shoes before reuse.
If swallowed, and the person is conscious, rinse mouth with
water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediate-
ly. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by a med-
ical professional.
NOTICE
Broken glass in the auto-dimming mirrors can cause electrolyte
fluid leakage. Liquid electrolyte leaked from a broken mirror
glass will damage any plastic surfaces it comes in contact with.
Clean up spilled electrolyte fluid immediately with clear water
and a sponge.

(2) Switch
(3) Sensor for recognizing entry of light
The auto-dimming feature can be switched on and off with the switch
on the inside mirror (2) A or (2) B. When auto-dimming is activated,
the indicator light (1) is on.
If the ignition is switched on, the sensor (3) automatically darkens the
inside mirror depending on the amount of light shining into the vehicle
from the rear.
The auto-dimming feature is deactivated when you shift the transmis-
sion into reverse or switch on the interior lights or the reading light.
Do not attach external navigation devices to the windshield or in the
vicinity of the auto-dimming inside mirror ⇒ .
WARNING
The illuminated display on an external navigation device can
cause the auto-dimming inside mirror to malfunction, which
can result in crashes and serious injuries.
Malfunctions in the auto-dimming function can result in the
inside mirror being unable to evaluate the exact distance of ve-
hicles in the rear or other objects.
If the light striking the sensor is filtered or blocked (such as by a
sunshade), the auto-dimming inside mirror will not work properly or
may not work at all.
