If a function is not present, a driver message appears.

This message appears when the [START] button is pressed if there is
no master key inside the vehicle or if the system does not recognize

the radio signal.

This message appears if you press the I ST ART ] button to start the
engine and do not depress the brake pedal. The engine can only be
started if the brake pedal is depressed.

This message appears when the engine is started if the selector lever
for the automatic transmission is not in the P or N position . The
engine can only be started with the selector in these positions.

This message appears along with the ' symbol if the master key is
removed from the vehicle with the engine running . It is intended to
remind you (e.g. when changing drivers) not to continue the journey
without the master key.
If the master key is no longer in the vehicle, you cannot switch off the
ignition after stopping the engine and you also cannot start the
engine again. Moreover, you cannot lock the vehicle from the outside
with the key.
