RADIO FREQUENCIES
CAUTIONS
The radio frequency used by your
remote control can also be used by
other short distance radio
transmissions (e.g. amateur radios,
medical equipment, wireless headphones,
remote controls and alarm systems). If the
frequencies are jammed, you will not be
able to use your remote control. You can
lock and unlock the doors with the key. Check your vehicle is locked before
leaving it unattended. This will
safeguard against any potential
malicious frequency blocking. Note:
You could unlock the doors if you
press the buttons on the remote control
unintentionally.
The operating range between your remote
control and your vehicle varies depending
on the environment.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
CONTROL
You can programme a maximum of eight
remote controls to use with your vehicle
(including any supplied with your vehicle).
Programming a new remote
control
1. Insert the key in the ignition.
2. Cycle the key from position 0 to II and
then back to 0 four times within six
seconds.
3. Leave the key in position 0 and press any button on the remote control
within 10 seconds. You will receive
confirmation via a chime or LED that
programming has been successful. Note:
Further remote controls may be
programmed at this stage.
4. Press any button on each additional remote control within 10 seconds of
each other.
Reprogramming the unlocking
function
Note: When you press the unlock button
either all the doors are unlocked or only the
driver ’s door is unlocked. Pressing the unlock
button again unlocks all the doors.
Press and hold the unlock and lock buttons
on the remote key simultaneously for at
least four seconds with the ignition off. The
direction indicators will flash twice to
confirm the change.
To return to the original unlocking function,
repeat the process.
CHANGING THE REMOTE
CONTROL BATTERY Make sure that you dispose of
old batteries in an
environmentally friendly way.
Seek advice from your local authority
regarding recycling.

Note:
If the child safety locks have also
been activated, pulling the internal lever will
only deactivate the emergency locking and
not the child safety lock. The doors can only
be opened using the external door handle.
Note: If the doors have been unlocked using
this method, the doors must be locked
individually until the central locking function
has been repaired.
Unlock the driver's door using the key. The
other doors can be unlocked individually
by pulling the interior door handles on
those doors.
KEYLESS ENTRY
General information WARNING
The keyless entry system may not
function if the key is close to metal
objects or electronic devices such as
mobile phones. The passive entry system will not function
if:
•
The vehicle battery is flat.
• The passive key frequencies are
jammed.
• The passive key battery is flat.
Note: If the passive entry system does not
function, you will need to use the key blade
to lock and unlock your vehicle.
The keyless system allows the driver to
operate the vehicle without the use of a
key or remote control. Passive locking and unlocking requires a
valid passive key to be located within one
of the three external detection ranges.
These are located approximately one and
a half metres from the driver and front
passenger door handles and the luggage
compartment lid.
Passive key
The vehicle can be locked and unlocked
with the passive key. The passive key can
also be used as a remote control. See
Locking and Unlocking (page 39).
Locking the vehicle
WARNING
The vehicle does not lock itself
automatically. If the locking function
is not activated, the vehicle will
remain unlocked. Note:
The ignition will automatically switch
off when you lock your vehicle from the
outside. This is to prevent the vehicle battery
from discharging.
Note: Do not grab the door handle.

lock the vehicle.
To activate central locking and arm the
alarm:
•
Touch a front door handle lock sensor
once.
To activate double locking and arm the
alarm:
• Touch a front door handle lock sensor
twice within three seconds.
Note: There must be clearance between
each touch of the door handle.
Note: Once activated, the vehicle will
remain locked for approximately three
seconds. When the delay period is over, the
doors can be opened again, provided the
passive key is within the respective
detection range.
Two short flashes of the direction
indicators confirms that all the doors and
the luggage compartment lid have been
locked and that the alarm has been armed.
Luggage compartment lid
Note: The luggage compartment lid cannot
be closed and, will pop back up if the
passive key is located inside the vehicle with
the doors locked. Note:
If a second valid passive key is
located within the rear exterior detection
range, the luggage compartment lid can be
closed.
Unlocking the vehicle
Note: If the vehicle remains locked for
longer than three days, the keyless system
will enter an energy-saving mode. This is to
reduce the discharge of the vehicle battery.
When the vehicle is unlocked while in this
mode, the reaction time of the system may
be a little longer than normal. Unlocking the
vehicle once will deactivate the
energy-saving mode.
Note: If the vehicle remains locked for
several weeks, the keyless system will be
disabled. The vehicle must be unlocked
using the key blade. Unlocking the vehicle
once will enable the keyless system.
Note: Do not touch the front door handle
lock sensor when opening a door. Open any door.
Note:
A valid passive key must be located
within the detection range of that door.
One long flash of the direction indicators
confirms that all the doors and the luggage
compartment lid have been unlocked and
that the alarm has been disarmed.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Alarm system
Your vehicle may be equipped with one of
the following alarm systems:
•
Perimeter alarm.
• Perimeter alarm with interior sensors.
• Category one alarm with interior
sensors and battery back-up sounder.
Perimeter alarm
The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against
unauthorised access to your vehicle
through the doors and the bonnet. It also
protects the audio unit.
Interior sensors WARNING
The sensors in the interior lamp unit
must not be covered up. Do not
activate the alarm with full guard if
any persons, animals or other moving
objects are inside the vehicle. The sensors act as a deterrent against
unauthorised intrusion by sensing any
movement within the vehicle. Battery back-up sounder
The battery back-up sounder is an extra
alarm system which will sound a siren
when the alarm is triggered. It is armed
directly when you lock the vehicle. The
sounder has its own battery and will sound
an alarm siren even if someone
disconnects the vehicle battery or the
battery back-up sounder itself.
Triggering the alarm
Once armed, the alarm is triggered in any
of the following ways:
•
If someone opens a door, the tailgate
or the bonnet without a valid key or
remote control.
• If someone removes the audio or
navigation system.
• If the ignition is turned to position I, II
or III without a valid key.
• If the interior sensors detect movement
within the vehicle.
• On vehicles with a battery back-up
sounder, if someone disconnects the
vehicle battery or the battery back-up
sounder itself.
If the alarm is triggered, the alarm horn will
sound for 30 seconds and the hazard
warning flasher will flash for five minutes.
Any further attempts to perform one of the
above will trigger the alarm again.
Full and reduced guard
Full guard
Full guard is the standard setting.
In full guard, the interior sensors are
activated when you arm the alarm.
Note: This may result in false alarms if
animals or moving objects are inside the
vehicle.
