Disabling alarm on mk7 golf gti

[MicMax27]

I’ve recently purchased a mk7 GTI, so I’m still getting used to it. This evening I’m taking it in a ferry for the first time and I have no idea how to disable the car alarm, so tips and directions please.

There should be a button on the drivers B pillar lower down. Open drivers door, press the button (can take a couple of presses it’s not the most responsive button) and it will light up and then alarm is disabled. Get out and lock the car and should all be good.
Next time car is unlocked it resets so when you come to leave alarm is enabled again.

Not sure about the MK7 but on earlier models that button just disabled the interior sensors.
