uneven terrain.

you:
Rswitch on the ignition
Rshift the transmission to position D,Ror N
Rrelease the electric parking brake

message, e-mail or an automated call.
The area can be determined as either a circle
or a polygon with a maximum of ten corners.
You can specify up to ten areas simultane-
ously. Different settings are possible for each area.
