The concept
The vehicle can be accessed without activat‐

trol with you, e.g., in your jacket pocket.
The vehicle automatically detects the remote
control when it is nearby or in the passenger
compartment.
Comfort Access supports the following func‐
tions:▷Unlocking/locking of the vehicle.▷Unlocking of the tailgate separately.▷Starting the engine.▷Convenient closing.
Functional requirement
▷To lock the vehicle, the remote control
must be located outside of the vehicle.▷The next unlocking and locking cycle is not
possible until after approx. 2 seconds.▷The engine can only be started if the re‐
mote control is inside the vehicle.
Comparison with ordinary remote
control
The functions can be controlled by pressing the buttons or via Comfort Access.
Should a short delay occur when opening or
closing the windows or the glass sunroof, the
system is checking whether a remote control is
located in the vehicle. Please repeat opening
or closing if necessary.
