WARNING
Improper use of electrical seat controls can cause serious personal injuries.
x The front seats in your vehicle can be electrically adjusted even when the vehicle key has
been removed from the ignition or, on a vehicle with Keyless Access, even if there is no key
in the vehicle.
x Never leave children and persons who need help in the vehicle alone because the unsu-
pervised use of the electric seat adjustments can result in serious personal injury.
x Always make sure that no one is in the way while the front seats are being adjusted, or
while calling up the stored memory settings for the front seats. In an emergency, stop auto-
matic seat adjustment by pressing a seat adjustment switch.
NOTICE
To help prevent damage to electrical parts in the seat, do not kneel on the front seats or apply
concentrated pressure to a small area of the seat or backrest.
If the vehicle battery is too weak, the electrical seat adjustment controls may not work.
Starting the engine stops seat adjustment.
When entering and exiting the vehicle, be careful not to come into contact with any switches that
could change the seat adjustment.

x Liquids, sharp objects and things that do not let the heat in the seat escape into the air,
including, for example, a child restraint, a blanket or seat covers on the seat can damage seat
heating.
x If you smell an odor, immediately shut off seat heating and have it checked by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
x Never install leather upholstery on a vehicle with seat heating that originally had cloth
upholstery. The seat heating elements for seats with cloth seats will overheat if the cloth
upholstery is replaced with leather upholstery.
Switch off seat heating when it is not needed to help reduce unnecessary fuel consumption.
Memory seats

Fig. 53 Memory buttons on the outer side of the driver seat.

x The adjusted mirror position is automatically stored and assigned to the vehicle key used to unlock
the vehicle. The preselected position will be recalled when the key assigned to that mirror adjustment
position is used again.
The passenger-side outside mirror automatically adjusts back from the position stored for backing up
when the vehicle moves forward at about 10 mph (15 km/h) or more or when the rotary knob ⇒ fig. 95
is rotated from (R) into a different position.
Recalling settings for driver seat and outside mirrors
x Briefly press the appropriate memory button when the vehicle is not moving, the ignition is
switched off, and the driver door is open.
x OR: If the ignition is switched on and the driver door is closed, press and hold the appropriate
memory button until the stored position is reached.
x The passenger-side outside mirror automatically adjusts back from the position stored for backing
up when the vehicle moves forward at about 10 mph (15 km/h) or more or when the rotary knob is
rotated from (R) into a different position.
Assigning driver seat and outside mirror settings to a vehicle key
The memory function of all vehicle keys is disabled when the vehicle is first delivered from the factory.
To enable vehicle key memory feature:
x Unlock the driver door.
x Press and hold a memory button until memory position is reached.

at the same time within about 3 seconds. A chime sounds to confirm activation.

Once the settings are stored, the driver seat and the outside mirrors move to the stored positions
whenever the vehicle is unlocked with the vehicle key open button 0 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 qualified workshop in certain situations, for instance, if a new
driver seat is installed.
Initializing clears all memories and assignments of the memory seat. After that, memory buttons can
be reprogrammed and assigned to a remote control vehicle key.

x Adjust the seats from the outside.
x Move the angle of the backrest forward as far as it will go.
x Release the backrest adjustment switch and press it again until you hear a chime sound.

x Charging condition of the vehicle battery is weak.
x The SET button is pressed again within about 10 seconds.
x The seat position is readjusted within about 10 seconds after pressing the SET button.
