How to Activate and Deactivate the Alarm on the Volkswagen Passat

Model: Volkswagen Passat B6, 3C - Years 2005-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance

This guide provides instructions on how to activate and deactivate the alarm system, if equipped, on the Volkswagen Passat. First, take your remote control and press the lock button for a couple of seconds; this will close all the locks, thereby activating the alarm system. When you open the vehicle, the alarm system will automatically disable; if you open it with a physical key (from the lock cylinder), the alarm system will not be disabled, as it only deactivates with the remote.
