CAUTION
All of the vehicle keys contain electronic com-
ponents. Pr ot
ect them from damage, impacts
and humidity. Note
● Only u

se the key button when you require
the corresponding function. Pushing the but-
ton unnecessarily could accidentally unlock
the vehicle or trigger the alarm. It is also pos-
sible even when you are outside the radius of
action.
● Key operation can be greatly influenced by
overl
apping radio signals around the vehicle
working in the same range of frequencies
(e.g. radio transmitters, mobile telephones).
● Obstacles between the remote control and
the vehic
le, bad weather conditions and
draining batteries can considerably reduce
the range of the remote control. Control lamp on the vehicle key

ignition 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

o occur, there has to be a valid key in-
side the vehicle and the ignition push button
needs to be pressed ››› page 183.
● Keyless-Exit: unlocking of the vehicle with
one of the four door h
andle.
The central locking and locking systems oper-
ate in the same way as a normal locking and
unlocking system. Only the controls change.
Unlocking the vehicle is confirmed with a
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.
