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 power sunroof malfunctions, pinch protection may not function properly. See an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.
