starting system gives the key entry as soon
as one of the sensor surfaces on the door
handles is touched or the push button on the
boot hatch is operated. The following fea-
tures are then available without having to
use the vehicle key actively:
● Keyless-Entry: unlocking of the vehicle with
the handle

of the four door h
andles.
The central locking and locking systems oper-
ate in the same way as a normal locking and
unlocking system. Only the controls change.

double flash of the indicator lights; locking
by a single flash. The vehicle will lock again after a few sec-
onds if

you unlock the vehicle but fail to open
any door or boot hatch.

dles is often activated in an unusual manner with the vehicle locked (e.g. by the branches
of a bu

sh rubbing against it), all proximity
