also left in the vehicle.
Do not expose to extremes of heat,
dust, humidity or fluids. Do not leave
the transmitter exposed to direct
sunlight.
The emergency key blad e number is recorded
on an attached label, which should be peeled

Keep the Security Card safe, but not in the
vehicle.
The operational range of the Smart Key varies
considerably, depending on atmospheric
conditions and interferen ce from other devices.
Note: The radio frequency used by the Smart
Key may be used by othe r devices (e.g. medical
equipment). This may prevent the Smart Key
from operati ng correctly.

vehicle’s lights. The system is only active when
the ambient light drops below a predetermined
level.
This function is only active if the rotary control
is in the AUTO position and the stalk is in the
central position.
The system will only activate when vehicle
speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h). The system
will deactivate when ve hicle speed drops below
15 mph (24 km/h).
Note: Auto high beam does not operate when
reverse gear is selected.
To manually select high beam, move the stalk
to the high beam position as normal. To return
to Auto high beam, move the stalk back to the
central position.
To manually override to low beam from high
beam, pull the stalk to the flash position and
auto high beam will be cancelled. To return to

Note: Ensure that the sensor in the rear view
mirror is not blocked or obstructed.
HEADLAMPS - CONDENSATION
In certain circumstances, misting may occur
on the inside of a lamp lens. This is caused by
natural changes in environmental conditions.
This misting is not de trimental to lamp
performance and will clear during normal

• Briefly press the switch down fully and
release; the window will open 65 - 75 mm

WINDOW ANTI-TRAP PROTECTION
Before closing a window, ensure that
no occupants have any part of their
body in a position where it could be
trapped. Even with an anti-trap system
death or serious injury could occur.
Anti-trap protection is designed to stop
window movement if an obstruction or
resistance is detected. Check the window and
its aperture and remove any obstructions. The
override procedure is as follows:-
1. Attempt to close the window. Anti-trap will
prevent closure and lower the window. 2.
Within 10 seconds, at tempt to raise the
window again. Anti-trap will prevent
closure and lower the window.
3. Attempt to close the window for a third
time, this time holding the switch in the
close position. The window will raise whilst
the switch is held. Hold until closed.
Note: If this procedure fails to remove the
blockage, or if the windows do not operate
correctly, the window operation may need to be
reset. See 164, WINDOW RESET .
SUNROOF ANTI-TRAP MECHANISM
Before closing the sunroof, ensure
that no occupants have any part of
their body in a position where it could
be trapped. Even with an anti-trap
system death or serious injury could
occur.
The anti-trap mechanism can be overridden to
allow the roof to be closed when movement is
restricted by dirt. To override the anti-trap
mechanism, press and hold the front of the
switch until the roof reaches the closed
position.
If the sunroof fails to operate correctly, it may
need to be reset. See 164, SUNROOF RESET .
