This applies only if
the vehicle was locked
before closing the boot lid.
The function of the hand grip above the li
cence plate is deactivated when starting
off or as of a speed of more than 6 km/hour
for vehicles with central locking. The func-
tion of the hand grip is activated again

to unlock and lock the vehicle;
unlocking boot lid.
The transmitter with the battery is incorporat
ed in the handle of the master key. The
receiver is located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the remote control key is approx. 10 m. But this range can be reduced if the batteries are weak. The master key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking and locking the car manually and also for starting the engine. If a lost key is replaced or if the receiver unit has been repaired or a new unit installed, it is then necessary for a specialist garage to adapt the system. Only after this is it possible to again use the remote control.
Note
The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switched on.
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interference
from transmitters close to th
e car and which operate in the same frequency range (e.g.
mobile phone, TV transmitter).
The battery must be replaced if the centra
l locking or anti-theft alarm system does
not react to the remote control at less th
an 3 metres away. We recommend having the
battery replaced by
a specialist garage.

Syncronisation of the remote controlIf the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuatin
g the remote control system then it is
possible that the code in the key and the co
ntrol unit in the vehicle are no longer
synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-operated key are actuated a number of times outside of the operative
range of the equipment or the battery on
the remote control was replaced. This means it is necessary to
synchronise the code as follows:
press any button on the remote control;
pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1
minute.Anti-theft alarm system*DescriptionThe anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against people seeking to break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warning signals if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle. How is the alarm
system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated au
tomatically when the
unlocked vehicle is
locked with the key inserted in the driver's
door or with the remote control key. It is
activated 30 seconds after locking the door. How is the alarm system deactivated? The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated if
the vehicle is unlocked by only using the
radio remote control. The anti-theft alarm system is reactivated if the vehicle is not opened within 30 seconds after transmitting the radio signal. Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the ke
y into the driver door you then have to
insert the key into the ignition lock and sw
itch the ignition on within 15 seconds after
opening the door in order to deactivate the anti-theft alarm system. The
alarm will be
triggered
if you do
not switch on
the ignition within 15 seconds.

the locked vehicle are monitored:
