2004>2010 Touareg, 2004-2006 Phaeton – Alarm Goes Off
WhenUnlocking Door With Key Cylinder
October 18, 2013: Update to information.
If the vehicle is entered using the door key, the alarm may activate when opening the door. The door lock
cylinder does not disarm the alarm. The lock cylinder in the door is meant to be used as an emergency
entry, therefore the key must be inserted into the ignition within 15-30 seconds of opening the door
(dependent on vehicle and equipment), in order to disarm the alarm.
