Central locking system
Radio frequency and infrared remote control
The electronic main key has an integrated radio
frequency and infrared remote control.
Due to the extended operational range of the remote
control, it could be possible to unintentionally lock or
unlock the vehicle by pressing the transmit button. If
one of the transmit buttons is pressed, the battery check
lamp lights up briefly – indicating that the batteries are
in order. See page 363 for checking batteries.
The vehicle doors, trunk and fuel filler flap can be
centrally locked and unlocked via remote control.
Opening and closing the windows and sliding/pop-up
roof and switching on the driver’s seat ventilation can
only be done with the infrared portion of the remote
control. Aim transmitter eye at a receiver (6 or 7), press
and hold transmit buttonŒ or‹, see page 45.
With vehicle centrally locked, the trunk can also be
opened by using the remote control.
If the electronic key is inserted in starter switch, the
vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked, and the trunk lid
cannot be opened with the remote control.1Transmit button

and no electronic key in the starter switch, the
message “CHIP-CARD – DO NOT FORGET” appears
as a reminder, see page 318.
Important
In t he c ase of a m alf unction in the KEYLESS-GO -system,
we recommend that you carry the electronic key plus
mechanical key with you and keep them in a safe place
so t ha t t hey are a lways h andy. Never leave the el ectronic
key in the vehicle.Notes:
The KEYLESS-GO-function also permits closing of
windows and sliding/pop-up roof (convenience feature),
see page 46.
With the KEYLESS-GO-card in close proximity (approx.
3 ft. [1 m]) of the vehicle, aiming a jet of water at a door
handle (e.g. when washing the vehicle) or cleaning
snow from a door, could lock or unlock the vehicle
inadvertently.
To prevent a possible inadvertent lockout, the trunk lid
will open automatically if a KEYLESS-GO-card is
recognized in the area of the rear shelf or inside the
trunk.
