NOTICE
The remote control vehicle keys contain electrical components.
Protect them from damage, moisture and rough handling.
Do not press the buttons on the remote control vehicle key unless
you actually want to use the function in question. Since terrain and
conditions vary, pressing a button on the remote control vehicle key
when it is not necessary may unlock the vehicle or set off the panic
alarm, even if you think you are out of range.
Remote control vehicle key functions can be temporarily disrupt-
ed by interference from transmitters near the vehicle that use the
same frequency range (such as radio equipment or mobile phones).
Things between the remote control vehicle key and vehicle, bad
weather, as well as a weak battery can reduce the operating range.
If the remote control vehicle key buttons ⇒ fig. 20 or the power
locking buttons⇒ Unlocking or locking the vehicle from the inside are
pushed repeatedly in quick succession, the power locking system is
switched off for a brief period to help keep it from being overloaded.

The engine coolant system is under pressure when the en-
gine is hot. Never unscrew the coolant expansion tank cap
when the engine is hot. Hot coolant can spray out and cause
severe burns and other serious injuries.
– Turn the cap slowly and very carefully in a counterclock-
wise direction while applying light downward pressure on the
top of the cap.
– Always protect your face, hands, and arms from hot escap-
ing coolant or steam by covering the cap with a large, thick
rag.
Never spill fluids on the engine or exhaust system when re-
filling. Spilling fluids onto hot parts of the engine or exhaust
system can cause a fire.
WARNING
High voltage systems in the engine compartment can cause
electrical shocks or even electrocution, severe burns, other se-
rious injuries, and even death!
Never short-circuit the electrical system. Be especially care-
ful when using jumper cables. The vehicle's battery could ex-
plode!
To reduce the risk of electrical shock and personal injury
while the engine is running or being started:
– Never touch ignition cables. Never touch other compo-
nents of the high voltage electronic ignition system.
– Never touch the wiring of the HID – High Intensity Dis-
charge (Xenon) headlights.
Read and heed the important information and warnings on
cleaning the engine compartment ⇒  Cleaning the engine com-
partment.

WARNING
Serious injuries can result if the emergency closing and open-
ing procedures are used carelessly.
Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who can-
not help themselves in the vehicle. The doors can be locked
with the remote control vehicle key. This could result in people
being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency.
A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depend-
ing on the season. Particularly in the summer, heat buildup in
the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle
can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are much higher
than the outside temperatures. Temperatures can quickly reach
levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particularly
to small children.
WARNING
Careless opening and closing of the doors, the luggage com-
partment lid, and the power sunroof is dangerous and can
cause serious personal injury.
Open or close the doors, the luggage compartment lid, and
the power sunroof only when no one is in the way.
NOTICE
If the vehicle's battery fails or the power windows won't work,
the door windows are not lowered when the door is opened or
closed. Always close and open the door carefully to help prevent
damage to the window, the paint, or the rubber seal.
NOTICE
To help prevent vehicle damage, carefully remove and properly
reinstall parts after emergency locking or unlocking.
