tended period, please note the following:
- The proximity sensors are deactivated after
a few days to save power. You then have to
pull on the door handle once to unlock the
vehicle and a second time to open the vehi­

- To prevent the battery from being dis­
charged and to preserve your vehicle's abili­

gy management system gradually switches
off unnecessary convenience functions.
It is
possible that you will not be able to unlock
your vehicle using these convenience func­
tions.
