Keys/remote control
1Remote controls with integrated key;
they determine the functions of the
Key Memory, refer to page 54.
You can mark the remote controls using
the colored labels you received on tak-
ing delivery of the vehicle
Each remote control contains a
long-life rechargeable battery or in
the case of Comfort Access a battery.
The battery is automatically charged in
the ignition lock while the vehicle is
being driven.
If you have any remote controls 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 33.

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
>with Comfort Access via the door han-
dle
and from inside via the button for the cen-
tral locking system.
When the system is locked from inside, the
fuel filler door remains unlocked, refer to
page 36.
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 an accident, the central locking system
automatically unlocks the vehicle. In addi-
tion, the hazard warning flashers and inte-
rior lamps switch on.
Opening and closing:

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
