2012 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG key

x Disconnecting an anti-theft system integrated trailer ⇒  Trailer towing.
Deactivating the alarm
Unlock the vehicle with the unlock button on the remote control vehicle key and switch on the ignition with a valid remote control vehicle key.
For vehicles with Keyless Access, the alarm can be deactivated by grasping one of the door handles when a valid vehicle key is in range or by holding the remote control vehicle key to the right of the
steering column trim and pressing the starter button ⇒  Unlocking or locking vehicles with Keyless Access.
After the alarm has stopped and the vehicle is opened again in the same or a different area that is protected by the alarm, the alarm is triggered again. For example, the alarm will sound again if the rear hatch is opened after one of the doors has been opened.
The anti-theft alarm system is not activated when the vehicle is locked with the power lock switch 1 on the inside of the driver or front passenger doors.
If the driver door is mechanically unlocked with the emergency key, only the driver door is un-locked, but not the entire vehicle. Switching on the ignition deactivates the anti-theft alarm system and activates the central locking button. To unlock the doors, use the central locking button or remote control vehicle key.
If the vehicle battery is dead or weak, the anti-theft alarm system will not work properly.

NOTICE
If the system is operated too often in succession, it will shut itself off to help prevent overheat-ing.
x The feature can be used again as soon as the system has cooled down. In the meantime, the rear hatch can be opened or closed by hand, though this requires some strength.
x If the vehicle battery or the fuse is blown when the rear hatch is open, the rear hatch system must be reset. To reset the rear hatch, it must be closed once.
Make sure that the remote control vehicle key is not in the luggage compartment before closing the rear hatch.
Sensor-controlled rear hatch opener (Easy Open)

Fig. 33 Keyless Access locking and starting system: Opening the sensor-controlled rear hatch (Easy Open).

x If the rear bumper is very dirty.
x If the rear bumper has salty water on it after driving on salted roads.
x If a trailer hitch/ball mount has been installed on the vehicle.
Easy Open may be automatically deactivated in heavy rain to help prevent unintentional deployment caused by water running down the vehicle, for example.
WARNING
Careless use of the Easy Open feature can cause falls and serious personal injury
x Always make sure you have firm footing when using the Easy Open feature, and that the surface you are standing on is not uneven or slippery.
x Always remember that it will be necessary for you to move backwards to let the rear hatch open. Be careful not to lose your balance, particularly when holding things in your hands.
x Never use Easy Open feature unless you can use it safely.
CAUTION
If a valid vehicle key is within range of the rear hatch, the Easy Open feature can deploy unin-tentionally in some cases and open the rear hatch: for example, when sweeping the ground or floor below the rear bumper, if there is a strong stream of water or steam or when carrying out maintenance or repairs around the rear bumper. If the rear hatch opens unintentionally, it can injure anyone or damage anything in its way.
x Never leave a valid vehicle key within range of the rear hatch unattended.

Stopping automatic movement: Pull/press the switch again.
Reactivating the one-touch feature
If the vehicle battery is disconnected or dead and the windows are not completely closed, the one-touch feature will not work and must be reactivated:
x Close all windows and doors.
x Pull up the switch for the respective window and hold it for at least 2 seconds in this position.
x Release the switch, pull up and hold again. The one-touch feature is now reactivated.
The one-touch feature can be reactivated for one or more windows at the same time.
Convenience closing
From outside the vehicle (vehicles with Keyless Access), hold your finger on the lock sensor surface
on the outside of the door handle for a few seconds until the windows close ⇒ page 47.
Convenience closing closes the windows first and then the power sunroof.
WARNING
Improper use of power windows can result in serious personal injury.
x Never let anyone get in the way of a power window when closing it.
x When locking the vehicle from the outside, make sure that no one, especially children, remains in the vehicle. The windows will not open in case of an emergency.
x Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle. You can still use the power win-dows for several minutes after the ignition is switched off as long as the driver or front pas-senger door has not been opened.
x Always use the safety switch when children are in the back seat to disable the rear power windows and keep them from being opened and closed.
If the power windows malfunction, the one-touch feature, as well as pinch protection will not work properly. See an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility right away.
Power window pinch protection

x Pull and hold the switch at the rear. The sunroof will open and close on its own.
x When the sunroof is closed once again, release the switch.
x If the sunroof still will not close, contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
WARNING
Careless or unsupervised use of the sunroof can cause serious injuries.
x Always make sure that no one is in the way of the power sunroof when it is closing.
x Always take all vehicle keys with you when leaving the vehicle.
x Never leave children or persons requiring assistance unattended in the vehicle, especially if they have access to the vehicle key. Unsupervised use of the remote control vehicle key can lock the vehicle, start the engine, switch on the ignition and operate the sunroof.
x The sunroof can still be opened or closed for a short period after the ignition has been switched off, as long as the driver or passenger door is not opened.
WARNING
Closing the sunroof without pinch protection can cause severe injuries.
x Always be careful when closing the sunroof.
x Always make sure that no one is in the way when overriding pinch protection to close the sunroof.
x Pinch protection does not prevent fingers or other body parts from being pressed against the roof frame, thereby causing injury.
If the sunroof malfunctions or pinch protection does not operate properly. See an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.
If the power sunroof malfunctions, pinch protection may not function properly. See an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.
