RWhen the vehicle is parked for more than
72 hours, the KEYLESS-GO function is
deactivated. Pull one of the outer door
handles and turn on the ignition to
reactivate the KEYLESS-GO function.
RIf the KEYLESS-GO key is not near the
vehicle, it is possible that the system may
not recognize it. In this case, the vehicle
cannot be locked or started with KEYLESS-
GO.
RIf the KEYLESS-GO key has been removed
from the vehicle (e.g. if a passenger leaves
the vehicle with the KEYLESS-GO key):
-while someone is holding the Start/Stop
button or attempting to lock the vehicle
with the outer door handle, the message
Key not detected appears in the
multifunction display
-while the engine is running, the red
message Key not detected appears in
the multifunction display as you pull
away. Find the KEYLESS-GO key or
change its current position immediately
(e.g. place it on the front-passenger seat
or carry it in your shirt pocket.)
RIf you have started the engine using the
Start/Stop button, you can turn if off again
by:
-pressing the Start/Stop button again
-inserting the KEYLESS-GO key in the
ignition lock when the vehicle is
stationary and the automatic

RYou may accidentally unlock the vehicle if
the KEYLESS-GO key is within 3 ft (1 m) of
the vehicle and:
-an outer door handle comes into contact
with water
or
-you are cleaning an outer door handle.
RNote that the engine can be started by any
vehicle occupant if a KEYLESS-GO key is in
the vehicle.
Option 1: there is a KEYLESS-GO key in the
vehicle and a KEYLESS-GO key outside the
vehicle. If you leave the KEYLESS-GO key
behind when you get out and lock the
vehicle, a message does not appear in the
multifunction display.
Option 2: there is a KEYLESS-GO key in the
vehicle but no KEYLESS-GO key outside the
vehicle. When you get out and try to lock
the vehicle, the message Key still in
vehicle appears in the multifunction
display. The vehicle is not locked in this
case.
When starting the engine and while driving,
KEYLESS-GO also checks whether a valid key
is in the vehicle by periodically establishing
radio contact.
X To unlock the vehicle: touch the inner
surface of the door handle.
XTo lock the vehicle: touch sensor
surface :.
If you pull on the handle of the trunk lid, only

these will drain the battery.
If the engine does not start after several attempts:
XConsult a qualified specialist workshop.The engine does not
start. You cannot hear
the starter motor.The on-board voltage is too low because the starter battery is too
weak or discharged.XJump-start the vehicle ( Y page 296).
If the engine does not start despite attempts to jump-start it:

Important safety notes
Parking Guidance is an electronic parking aid
with ultrasound. Ultrasound is used to
measure the road on both sides of the vehicle.
A suitable parking space is indicated by the
parking symbol. You receive steering
instructions when parking. You may also use
PARKTRONIC ( Y page 186).
GWarning
Parking Guidance is merely an aid and may
display parking spaces that are not suitable
for parking, for example:
R no-parking areas
R parking spaces with unsuitable surfaces
(road surface)
R driveways
R entrances and exits
Parking Guidance detects and measures
potential parking spaces while driving past.
Changes to the parking space after this point
are not taken into account, for example if the
vehicle in front of or behind the parking space
changes position or objects in the parking
space are moved.
Even when using Parking Guidance, you are
still responsible for driving carefully. If you
rely on Parking Guidance alone, you could
cause an accident and injure yourself and
others.
Safety always remains your responsibility and
you must continue paying careful attention to
your immediate surroundings when parking
and maneuvering.Driving systems189Driving and parkingBA 207 USA, CA Edition B 2011; 1; 3, en-USd2sboikeVersion: 3.0.3.62010-05-20T10:38:09+02:00 - Seite 189Z
