Start/Stop button
General notes
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO are equipped withSmartKeys featuring the integrated KEYLESS-GO function and a detachable Start/Stop but-ton.
A check which periodically establishes a radioconnection between the vehicle and theSmartKey determines whether a valid Smart-Key is in the vehicle. This occurs, for example,when starting the engine.
When you insert the Start/Stop button intothe ignition lock, the system needs approx-imately two seconds recognition time. You canthen use the Start/Stop button.
Pressing the Start/Stop button several timesin succession corresponds to the differentSmartKey positions in the ignition lock. This isonly the case if you are not depressing thebrake pedal.
If you depress the brake pedal and press theStart/Stop button, the engine starts immedi-ately.
To start the vehicle without actively using theSmartKey:
Rthe Start/Stop button must be inserted inthe ignition lock
Rthe SmartKey must be in the vehicle
Rthe vehicle must not be locked with theSmartKey or KEYLESS-GO (Ypage 70)
Do not keep the KEYLESS-GO key:
Rwith electronic devices, e.g. a mobile phoneor another SmartKey.
Rwith metallic objects, e.g. coins or metalfoil.
Rinside metallic objects, e.g. a metal case.
This can affect the functionality of KEYLESS-GO.
If you lock the vehicle with the SmartKeyremote control or with KEYLESS-GO, after ashort time:
Ryou will not be able to switch on the ignitionwith the Start/Stop button.
Ryou will no longer be able to start the enginewith the Start/Stop button until the vehicleis unlocked again.
If you lock the vehicle centrally using the but-ton on the front door (Ypage 75), you cancontinue to start the engine with the Start/Stop button.
