2014 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG door lock

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 unlocked, 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.

Depending on vehicle options, a symbol may be displayed in the instrument cluster instead of the warning light. The symbol will still be displayed even after the ignition is switched off. The Premium instrument cluster display goes out about 15 seconds after the vehicle has been locked.
