NOTICE
The remote control vehicle keys contain electrical components. Protect them from damage, moisture and rough handling.
Do not press the buttons on the remote control vehicle key unless you actually want to use the function in question. Since terrain and conditions vary, pressing a button on the remote control vehicle key when it is not necessary may unlock the vehicle or set off the panic alarm, even if you think you are out of range.
Remote control vehicle key functions can be temporarily disrupted by interference from transmit-ters near the vehicle that use the same frequency range (such as radio equipment or mobile phones).
Things between the remote control vehicle key and vehicle, bad weather, as well as a weak battery can reduce the operating range.
If the remote control vehicle key buttons ⇒ fig. 20 or the power locking buttons ⇒ fig. 27 are pushed repeatedly in quick succession, the power locking system is switched off for a brief period to help keep it from being overloaded. The vehicle is then unlocked for about 30 seconds. Unless a door or the rear hatch is opened in this span of time, the vehicle is automatically locked afterwards.

The rear hatch will then move into closing position by itself and will be closed by the soft-close feature
⇒ .

Canceling the opening or closing feature
You can stop the opening or closing of the rear hatch by pressing one of the & buttons a second time. Pressing one of the & buttons again makes the hatch move back to its original position.
You can then open the hatch further by hand. This requires some strength.
Saving the opening angle
The rear hatch must be at least half way open to be able to save the opening angle.

x Press the ⇒ fig. 32 button in the open rear hatch ⇒  for at least 3 seconds. This saves the opening angle.

WARNING
Improper or unsupervised closing of the rear hatch can cause severe injuries.
x Never leave your vehicle unattended or let children play around your vehicle, especially with the rear hatch left open. A child could crawl into the vehicle and pull the rear hatch shut, becoming trapped and unable to get out. A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold depending on the season. Temperatures can quickly levels that can cause unconsciousness or death, particularly to small children.
WARNING
A closed rear hatch cannot open completely and an open rear hatch cannot close automati-cally if a luggage rack is installed on it or if it is covered by a heavy layer of snow. In this case, you will have to hold the rear hatch or prop it up to keep it open.
NOTICE
Before opening or closing the rear hatch, make sure there is enough room to do so, as for example when the vehicle has a trailer or is in a garage.
NOTICE
x Remove any luggage or bicycle rack mounted on the rear hatch before opening the hatch.

The power sunroof only works when the ignition is on. You can still open or close the power sunroof for several minutes after you switch off the ignition, as long as the driver or front passenger door has not been opened.
All procedures are interrupted as soon as the rotary switch is operated.
The sunshade opens automatically when the power sunroof opens if the shade was previously com-pletely closed or in front of the glass roof. The sunshade remains in the previous position and does not close automatically with the sunroof. The sunshade cannot be closed completely until the power sunroof is closed.
If your power sunroof will not close properly, do not try to close it yourself, doing so can cause serious and expensive damage that will not be covered by any Volkswagen Limited Warranty. Special knowledge and tools are required to close the power sunroof if it will not close on its own. To help prevent damage to the sunroof, have an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility help you close and repair the power sunroof.
The comfort position (2) provides sufficient ventilation without loud wind noise.
