Replacement key
You will need to quote the vehicle chassis number when ordering a replacement key or additional
remote control keys.
Every new key contains a microchip which must be encoded with the data for the vehicle's
electronic immobilizer. The vehicle key will not work if it is not fitted with a microchip, or if the
microchip has not been encoded. The same goes for keys that have been cut to fit the vehicle.
New keys or replacement keys are available from Volkswagen dealerships or from qualified
workshops and authorised key services that are qualified to manufacture these vehicle keys.
New and replacement vehicle keys must be synchronised before use. Proceed to a qualified
workshop.
Press the buttons on the key only if the corresponding function is actually needed. Pressing
a button when the function is not required could lead to the vehicle being unlocked unintentionally
or the alarm going off. This also applies even when you are not within the effective range.
The function of the vehicle key can be affected temporarily if there is more than one
transmitter in the direct vicinity working on the same frequency (e.g. a two-way radio or mobile
telephoneyf.
Obstacles between the key and the vehicle, bad weather conditions and weak batteries can
reduce the range of the remote control.
If the buttons on the vehicle key ⇒ Fig. 16 or one of the central locking buttons ⇒ Central
locking system are pressed repeatedly within a short period of time, the central locking system will
switch off briefly to prevent overloading. The vehicle will then be unlocked. Lock the vehicle if
necessary.
