vehicle and the SmartKey. When the engine
is started and whilst you are driving,

establishing radio contact.
You can combine the KEYLESS-GO functions
with those of a conventional key, e.g. using
KEYLESS-GO to unlock and pressing the
& button to lock.
When locking or unlocking with KEYLESS-GO,
the distance between the SmartKey and the

severe or even fatal injury to other persons; if
they get out of the vehicle, they could injure
themselves when doing so or be seriously or
even fatally injured by any passing traffic.
