lamps
The concept
Indicator and warning lamps can light up in

Some lamps will be tested for proper functioning
when the engine is started or the ignition is
switched on and will therefore light up briefly.
What to do in case of a malfunction
A list of all indicator and warning lamps, as well
as notes on possible caus es of malfunctions and
on how to respond, can be found starting on
page 172.

from the battery

entry or tampering by means of:
> An acoustic alarm
> Switching on the hazard warning flashers

Display on the revolution counter
When the system is armed, all LEDs pulse. After
approx. 16 minutes one LED flashes.
>LEDs pulse or LED flashes: system is armed.
> One LED flashes at short intervals:
Doors, the hood or the tailgate are not
properly closed. Even if these are not closed
fully, the remaining items are deadlocked
and the LEDs pulse after approx. 10 seconds
for approx. 16 minutes. Afterwards, one LED
flashes.
The interior movement detector is not acti-
vated.
> LEDs go out after the vehicle is unlocked:
No attempt was made to tamper with the
car.
> LEDs flash after unlocking until the key is
inserted in the ignition, but for no longer
than approx. 5 minutes: an attempt was
made to tamper with the vehicle.
Tilt alarm sensor
The vehicle's inclination is monitored. The alarm
is triggered, for instance, if an attempt is made

must be closed.
Avoiding false alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and the interior movement
detector can be switched off together. This prevents false alarms, e.g. in the following

> If pets are to remain inside the car
Switching off the tilt alarm sensor and
interior movement detector

Comfort Access
The concept

of the remote control. All you need to do is wear
the remote control close to your body, e.g. in
your jacket pocket. The vehicle automatically
detects the remote control within the immedi-
ate vicinity or in the passenger compartment.
Comfort Access support s the following func-
tions:
> Unlocking/locking the vehicle
> Unlocking the tailgate/S plit Rear Barn Doors
separately
> Starting the engine
Functional requirements
>There are no external malfunction sources in
the vicinity.
> For locking, the remote control must be out-
side of the vehicle.
> The vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked
again until after approx. 2 seconds.
