with information for complete control
of your vehicle. Its extensive array of
features and accessories, both for driving
and for your own safety, comfort and
convenience, are described here.

Opening and closing
Key/remote control
1The Key Memory functions are con-
trolled by the remote control units with
their integrated keys, refer to page 60.
The color-coded decals that you
received when taking delivery of your
vehicle can be used to identify the indi-
vidual remote control units.
Each remote control unit is
equipped with an extended-life
battery which is automatically
recharged in the ignition lock each time
you drive the vehicle.
If you have any remote control units that
are not being used on a regular basis,
you should therefore remember to
recharge these units by using them to
drive the vehicle for an extended period
at least once a year, refer to page 35.<
2Spare key for storage in a safe place,
such as in your wallet. This key is not
intended for constant use
3Adapter for spare key
The adapter can be used to store the
spare key. It can be stored in the place
provided within the luggage compart-
ment lid-mounted onboard tool kit to
ensure that it will always be available,
refer to page 195. You can find more
detailed information on using the
adapter in the section Using the spare
key adapter.

control unit
Press button 1 to release the key.
With the integrated key you can unlock and
lock the following:
>the storage compartment under the
front armrest
>the driver's door
>the luggage compartment lid.
Within the storage compartment you will
also find the switch for locking the luggage
compartment separately, refer to page 39.
If you lock the storage compartment and
only turn over the remote control, no
access is possible via the luggage com-
partment lid.
Using the spare key adapter
You will need the adapter to activate the
ignition and to start the vehicle with the

tion lock.
Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for
operation whenever the driver's door is
closed. This simultaneously engages and
releases the locks on the following:
>Doors
>Luggage compartment lid
>Fuel filler door.
The central locking system can be oper-
ated from the outside
>via the remote control
>via the driver's door lock
and from inside via the button for the
central locking system.
When the system is locked from inside, the
fuel filler door remains unlocked. Refer to
page 37.
The anti-theft system is automatically acti-
vated whenever you activate the central
locking system from outside the vehicle.
The alarm system is armed/disarmed at the
same time.
In the event of an accident, the central
locking system unlocks automatically Ð only
those doors which were not locked sepa-
rately with the safety lock buttons, refer to
page 38. In addition, the hazard warning
flashers and interior lamps come on.
Opening and closing Ð from

Using the remote control
When you engage/release the vehicle's
locks, you simultaneously activate/deacti-
vate the anti-theft system, arm/disarm the
alarm system
and switch the interior lamps
on/off. In addition, the remote control offers you
another function:
>Panic mode
In case of danger, you can trigger an
alarm.
You can have various confirmation
signals programmed into the system
to verify that the vehicle has been locked
securely.<

outside at all times.<
When it is no longer possible to lock
the vehicle via the remote control, the
battery is discharged. Use this remote con-
trol unit during an extended drive; this will
