ignition switch with the push of a button as long
as the key fob is in the passenger compartment.
The START/STOP ignition button has several

and ON/RUN.Keyless Ignition START/STOP Button
The push button ignition can be placed in the
following modes:
OFF
The engine is stopped
Steering is locked
Some electrical devices (e.g. central locking,
alarm, etc.) are still available
ACC
Engine is not started
Some electrical devices are available (e.g.
power windows) ON/RUN

The engine will start (when foot is on the brake
pedal)
All electrical devices are available (e.g. climate
controls, etc.)
If the ignition switch does not change the mode
by pushing the button, the key fob may have a low
or depleted battery. In this situation, a backup
method can be used to operate the ignition
switch. Proceed as follows:
