seconds.
KEYLESS GO* You can start, lock or unlock the vehicle using
KEYLESS GO. To do this, you only need carry
the key with you. When you touch the surface

between the vehicle and the key.
The distance to the vehicle's door handle
from which you wish to lock or unlock the
vehicle must not be greater than 1 m.
When starting the engine and whilst driving,
KEYLESS GO also checks whether a valid key
is in the vehicle by periodically establishing
radio contact. X

dle.
