Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and out of sight of your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would haveto be reinitialised.
No remote control can operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compar tment by theemergency services more difficult in an emergency.
However, the vehicle unlocks automatically in the event of a serious impact causing airbag deployment. As a safety precaution, never leave children alone in the vehicle, except for a very shor t period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key from the ignition switch when leaving the vehicle.
