Tiguan: Press and hold the window lift button until the window reaches the top, then continue holding for another 3 seconds until you hear a beeping sound. This completes the activation of the one-touch window lift function. Below is an extended introduction: 1. Introduction to one-touch window lift: It refers to a system where the car window glass can be controlled to rise or fall to position with a single press. Cars equipped with one-touch window lift have two settings for the window lift control switch. The first setting functions like a regular electric window. The second setting allows the window to automatically fully open or close with a single press and release. In contrast, regular electric windows require holding the switch until the window reaches the desired position, stopping the process when the button is released. 2. Functionality: Nowadays, most mid-to-high-end car models are equipped with the one-touch window lift function, primarily for the convenience of drivers and passengers, and to prevent drivers from being distracted by operating the windows, thereby improving safety. One-touch windows typically come with an "anti-pinch" feature to avoid the risk of pinching fingers.
When I used to drive my Tiguan, I tried activating the one-touch window function and found it quite fun, requiring just a few simple steps. First, turn on the ignition switch with the engine running in ACC or start mode. Then, select a window and lower it all the way to ensure it's fully open. Next, pull the window-up button and hold it up without releasing for about 5 to 6 seconds. You'll feel the window automatically rise to the top and stop—release the button to complete the learning process. After that, just a light tap on the button will automatically raise or lower the window, eliminating the hassle of continuous toggling. This feature is especially practical for quickly closing windows during rain to avoid a wet interior and enhances driving safety. If it doesn't work the first time, it might be due to insufficient button hold time or dirt in the window track—check and clean it before trying again for better results. Overall, activation is very convenient, with each window set independently—just repeat the steps for all windows.
