Information on copyrightIntroduction

Locking and unlocking
You can start, lock or unlock the vehicle using
KEYLESS-GO. To do this, you only need carry the
SmartKey with you. You can combine the func-
tions of KEYLESS-GO with those of a conven-
tional SmartKey. Unlock the vehicle by using
KEYLESS-GO, for instance, and lock it using the 0037 button on the SmartKey.
The driver's door and the door at which the han-
dle is used, must both be closed. The SmartKey
must be outside the vehicle. When locking or
unlocking with KEYLESS-GO, the distance
between the SmartKey and the corresponding
door handle must not be greater than 3 ft (1 m).
A check which periodically establishes a radio
connection between the vehicle and the Smart-
Key determines whether a valid SmartKey is in
the vehicle. This occurs, for example:
R when starting the drive system
R while driving
R when the external door handles are touched
R during convenience closing X
To unlock the vehicle: touch the inner sur-
face of the door handle.
X To lock the vehicle: touch sensor surface 0043
or 0044.
Make sure that you do not touch the inner
surface of the door handle.
X Convenience closing feature: touch
recessed sensor surface 0044for an extended
period.
Further information on the convenience clos-
ing feature (Y page 77). X
To unlock the tailgate: pull tailgate han-
dle 0043.
Deactivating and activating If you do not intend to use the vehicle for a lon-
ger period of time, you can deactivate KEYLESS-
GO. The SmartKey will then use very little power, thereby conserving battery power. For the pur-
poses of activation/deactivation, the vehicle
must not be nearby.
X To deactivate: press the0037button on the
SmartKey twice in rapid succession.
The battery check lamp of the SmartKey
flashes twice briefly and lights up once, then
KEYLESS-GO is deactivated (Y page 69).
X To activate: press any button on the Smart-
Key.
or X Insert the SmartKey into the ignition lock.
KEYLESS-GO and all of its associated features
are available again. Changing the settings of the locking
system
You can change the settings of the locking sys-
tem. This means that only the driver's door and
the charge socket flap are unlocked when the
vehicle is unlocked. This is useful if you fre-
quently travel on your own.
X To change the setting: press and hold the
0036 and0037 buttons simultaneously for SmartKey

Problems with the SmartKey
Problem
Possible causes/consequences and
0050
0050Solutions You cannot lock or
unlock the vehicle using
the SmartKey. The SmartKey battery is discharged or nearly discharged.
X Vehicles without KEYLESS-GO: try again to lock or unlock the
vehicle using the remote control function of the SmartKey. Point the tip of the SmartKey at the driver's door handle from close range and
press the 0036or0037 button.
X Check the SmartKey battery (Y page 69) and replace it if necessary
(Y page 69).
If this does not work: X Unlock (Y page 73) or lock (Y page 73) the vehicle using the
mechanical key. There is interference from a powerful source of radio waves.
X Vehicles without KEYLESS-GO: try again to lock or unlock the
vehicle using the remote control function of the SmartKey. Point the
tip of the SmartKey at the driver's door handle from close range and press the 0036or0037 button.
If this does not work: X Unlock (Y page 73) or lock (Y page 73) the vehicle using the
mechanical key. The SmartKey is faulty.
X Unlock (Y page 73) or lock (Y page 73) the vehicle using the
mechanical key.
X Have the SmartKey checked at a qualified specialist workshop. You can no longer lock or
unlock the vehicle using
KEYLESS-GO. The SmartKey battery is discharged or nearly discharged.
X Check the SmartKey battery (Y page 69) and replace it if necessary
(Y page 69).
If this does not work: X Unlock (Y page 73) or lock (Y page 73) the vehicle using the
mechanical key. There is interference from a powerful source of radio waves.
X Unlock (Y page 73) or lock (Y page 73) the vehicle using the
mechanical key. 70

Start/Stop button General notes
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO are equipped with
SmartKeys featuring the integrated KEYLESS-
GO function and a detachable Start/Stop but-
ton.
A check which periodically establishes a radio
connection between the vehicle and the Smart-
Key determines whether a valid SmartKey is in
the vehicle. This occurs, for example, when
starting the drive system.
When you insert the Start/Stop button into the
ignition lock, the system needs approximately
two seconds recognition time. You can then use the Start/Stop button.
Pressing the Start/Stop button several times in
succession corresponds to the different Smart- Key positions in the ignition lock. This is only the
case if you are not depressing the brake pedal.
If you depress the brake pedal and press the
Start/Stop button, the drive system starts
immediately. To start the vehicle without actively using the
SmartKey:
R
the Start/Stop button must be inserted in the
ignition lock.
R the SmartKey must be in the vehicle.
R the vehicle must not be locked with the
SmartKey or KEYLESS-GO (Y page 66)
Do not keep the KEYLESS-GO key:
R with electronic devices, e.g. a mobile phone
or another SmartKey.
R with metallic objects, e.g. coins or metal foil.
R inside metallic objects, e.g. a metal case
This can affect the functionality of KEYLESS-GO.
If you lock the vehicle with the SmartKey remote
control or with KEYLESS-GO, after a short time:
R you will not be able to switch on the ignition
with the Start/Stop button.
R you will no longer be able to start the drive
system with the Start/Stop button until the
vehicle is unlocked again
If you lock the vehicle centrally using the button
on the front door (Y page 72), you can continue
to start the drive system with the Start/Stop
button.
The drive system can be switched off while the
vehicle is in motion by pressing and holding the Start/Stop button for three seconds.

the electrical outlet
Charging cable Important safety notes
! Only use the charging cable to charge the
high-voltage battery. Do not use the charging
cable for other purposes. It may otherwise be damaged.
The vehicle is supplied with a single-phase 12 A charging cable. Only use the charging cable
included with the vehicle, which has been
approved for vehicle use.
Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 117).
If you use the supplied 12 A charging cable to
charge a high-voltage battery:
R the charge time increases considerably
R electrical consumption increases considera-
bly
Where possible, charge the high-voltage battery at a charging station (Y page 125). Only then
can certified electrical energy consumption lev- els be reached.
i The charging process can vary depending on
the charging station. Therefore, always
observe the local information.
Stowing the charging cable
The charging cable can be stowed in a bag in the trunk of the vehicle. To do so, the bag must be
secured to the cargo tie-down rings using the
retaining strap provided. 122
