easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply parking brake without pressing release
button. Apply as firmly as
possible on a downhill slope or
uphill slope. Depress brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.

Car Pass The Car Pass contains security
related vehicle data and should
therefore be kept in a safe place.
When the vehicle is taken to a
workshop, this vehicle data is needed
in order to perform certain operations.Radio remote control
Used to operate:
● central locking system
● anti-theft locking system
● anti-theft alarm system
Depending on model, the vehicle may use a 2-button or 3-button remote
control.
The remote control has a range of
approx. 5 m. It can be affected by
external influences. The hazard
warning flashers confirm operation.
Handle with care, protect it from
moisture and high temperatures and
avoid unnecessary operation.
Fault
If the central locking system cannot
be operated with the remote control,
it may be due to the following:
● The range is exceeded.
● The battery voltage is too low.
● Frequent, repeated operation of the remote control while not in
range, which will require
reprogramming by a workshop.
● Overload of the central locking system by operating at frequent
intervals; the power supply is
interrupted for a short time.
● Interference from higher-power radio waves from other sources.
Unlocking 3 24.
Remote control battery
replacement
Replace the battery as soon as the
range reduces.
Keys, doors and windows33each opening and closing, it is not
possible to reset the counter. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
If the drive belt should fail, the door
may still be opened and closed
manually.
Fault
If a system fault is detected when
unlocking the doors, an audible
warning will sound and the LED in the
switch illuminates. Check position of
exterior handle. Reset handle if in the
open position and use key to operate door locks.
Seek the assistance of a workshop if
the fault remains.
Power side step9 Warning
Take care when using the power
side step, particularly in wet and
cold weather conditions.
The power side step operates
automatically when the sliding door is opened or closed.
9 Warning
Ensure there is adequate
clearance to allow the power side
step to fully extend and retract
without obstruction.
The indicator illuminates during
operation of the power side step. If it
remains illuminated with the door
closed, the step has not retracted, or
the door has not fully latched into its
locking position.
In the event of a failure, manually retract the power side step by
unscrewing the orange handwheel
located at the rear of the step,
ensuring that there are no obstacles
preventing closure. When the step is
retracted, screw in the orange
handwheel. Seek the assistance of a
workshop.
