NOTE
•The approach lighting, panic alarm, and
the functions controlled by the informa-
tion button have a range of approxi-
mately 300 ft (100 m) from the vehicle.
•Radio waves, buildings or other obsta-
cles may interfere with the function of
the PCC.
If the vehicle does not provide confirmation
when a button has been pressed, try moving
closer and pressing the button again.
Outside of the PCC´s rangeIf the PCC is more than approximately 300 ft
(100 m) from the vehicle when the information
button is pressed, no new information will be
received. The PCC most recently used to lock
or unlock the vehicle will show the vehicle's
most recently received status. The indicator
lights will not flash when the information button
is pressed while the PCC is out of range.
If more than one PCC is used to lock/unlock
the vehicle, only the one used most recently will
show the correct locking status.
NOTE
If none of the indicator lights illuminate when
the information button is pressed, this may
be because the most recent transmission
between the vehicle and the PCC was inter-
rupted or impeded by buildings or other
objects.
Keyless driveVehicles equipped with the optional Personal
Car Communicator have the keyless drive
function, see page 63 for detailed informa-
tion.

mation.
Both of the PCCs provided with the vehicle
have the keyless function, and additional ones
can be ordered. The system can accommo-
date up to six PCCs.
The red rings in the illustration indicate the area
around the vehicle that is within range of the
keyless drive antennas.

tive area on the outside door handles and a rub-
ber-covered button next to the trunk opening con-
trol
The doors and the trunk can be locked by
pressing the pressure-sensitive area on each
of the outside door handles or the rubber-cov-
ered button next to the trunk opening control.
The lock indicator on the dash will begin to

Keyless drive remote key and driver's
seat/door mirror memory
•When you leave the vehicle with a PCC in
your possession and lock any door, the
position of the driver's seat and door mir-
rors will be stored in the seat's memory.
•The next time a door is opened by a person
with the same PCC in his/her possession,
the driver's seat and door mirrors will auto-
matically move to the position that they
were in when the door was most recently
locked.
NOTE
If several people carrying PCCs approach
the vehicle at the same time, the driver's
seat and door mirrors will assume the posi-
tions they were in for the person who opens
the driver's door.
See also page 89 for information on adjusting
and storing the seat's position in the seat mem-
ory.
Keyless drive information messagesIf all of the PCCs are removed from the vehicle
while the engine is running or if the ignition is
in mode II (see page 86) and all of the doors
are closed, a message will appear in the instru-
ment panel display and an audible signal will
sound.

•The PCC has been inserted in the ignition
slot
•The READ button (see page 131 for the
location of this button) has been pressed.
CAUTION
•Keyless drive remote keys should never
be left in the vehicle. In the event of a
break-in, a remote found in the vehicle
could make it possible to start the
engine.

obstructions can interfere with the key-
less drive system. Avoid placing the
remote key near cellular phones, metal-
lic objects or e.g., in a metal briefcase.

67 Locking and unlocking the vehicle
From outside the vehicleThe remote key locks and unlocks all of the
doors and the trunk.
Before the vehicle can be locked from the out-
side with the remote key, the driver's door must
be closed. Any other door/trunk that is open
will be locked and the alarm will be armed.
NOTE
Be sure the remote key is outside of the
vehicle before the other doors/trunk are
closed to help avoid locking the remote
inside the vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional key-
less drive system, all doors/trunk must be
closed before the vehicle can be locked.
The first press on the unlock button unlocks the
driver's door and a second press unlocks the
other doors and the trunk (see also page 57).
This setting can be changed in the menu sys-
tem, see page 134.
If the locks repeatedly do not react when the
unlock button is pressed, it may be necessary
to replace the batteries in the remote, see
page 56. In this case the vehicle can be
unlocked with the detachable key blade. See
page 60.
Manual lockingIn certain situations (e.g., if there is no electrical
current in the vehicle), the doors can be locked
manually.
The detachable key blade (see page 59) can be
used in the lock cylinder in the driver's door to
lock that door.
The other doors do not have lock cylinders and
the slot on the rear edge of each door has to
be used to lock it. This will lock the door from
the outside but it can still be opened from
inside the vehicle. To do so:
Manually locking a door

Insert the key blade into the slot and turn it
90 degrees to lock that door (the slot in a
particular door locks that door only).
In the horizontal position, the door cannot
be opened from the outside.
In the vertical position, the door can be
opened from the inside and the outside.
NOTE
If the manual child safety lock (see
page 51) is activated for a rear side door and
that door is also locked manually, the door
cannot be opened from the outside or
inside. The door can only be unlocked with
the remote key or the central locking button.
From inside the vehicle (central locking
button)

same time. Press to lock and to
unlock.
UnlockingThe vehicle can be unlocked from inside the
vehicle in two ways:
•By pressing the unlock button .
•The front doors can be unlocked and
opened by pulling the door handle once.
The rear doors can be unlocked by pulling
the door handle once and opened by pull-
ing the handle again.
Locking
•Press the lock button : all of the doors
that are closed will lock.
Alternative locking when parkingThe central locking button on the driver's door
can also be used to lock the vehicle when you
leave it. To do so:
1. Open the door.
2. Press the lock section of the button.
3. Close the door. This will lock the vehicle
completely and arm the alarm.
NOTE
Please be aware that locking the vehicle in
this way makes it possible to lock the
remote key in the passenger compartment.
To help avoid this, lock the vehicle from the
outside by pressing the lock button on the
remote key.
If the vehicle is locked using the central
locking button, be sure that the remote key
is in your possession before closing the
door.
Indicator light in the lock buttonsThere are two versions of the central locking
system that affect the indicator light in the driv-
er's door central locking button.
If only the driver's door has a central locking
button:
•If the light is on, this indicates that all of the
doors are locked.
If there are central locking buttons in both front
doors and electric lock buttons in the rear side
doors:
•If a light is on in one of the buttons, this
means that only that door is locked. When
the lights are on in all of the buttons, all of
the doors are locked.
Lock buttons in the rear side doors
The indicator light in the button is on when the
door is locked
The button in each of the rear side doors locks
that door only.
To unlock the door:
•The door can be unlocked by pulling the
door handle once and opened by pulling
the handle again.
Automatic relockingIf the doors are unlocked, the locks will auto-
matically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will
rearm after 2 minutes unless a door or the trunk
has been opened.
Automatic lockingWhen the vehicle starts to move, the doors and
trunk can be locked automatically. This feature
