Important notes on using KEYLESS-GO
You can also use the SmartKey with
KEYLESS-GO like a normal key
(page 86).
You can combine KEYLESS-GO func-
tions with normal key functions (e.g.
unlocking with KEYLESS-GO and lock-
ing with the remote control).
Always carry the SmartKey with
KEYLESS-GO with you.
Never store the SmartKey with
KEYLESS-GO together with:
Electronic items such as a cellular
phone or another SmartKey with
KEYLESS-GO
Metallic objects such as coins or
metal foil
Doing so could impair the function of
the KEYLESS-GO system.
To lock or unlock the vehicle, the key
must be located outside the vehicle
within approximately 3 ft. (1 m) of a
door or the trunk.
In order to start the engine with the
SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO:
The SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO
must be located in the vehicle.
All the doors must be closed.
If you have started the engine with the
KEYLESS-GO start/stop button, you
can only turn it off again with this but-
ton, even if you have put the key in the
starter switch in the meantime.
This does not apply if, after starting, the
selector lever is still in positionP. The
SmartKey will then have priority over
the KEYLESS-GO function and the vehi-
cle’s electrical system will operate ac-
cording to the position of the key in the
starter switch, even stopping the en-
gine.
If the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO is
positioned farther away from the vehi-
cle (e.g. inside clothing or briefcase)
and can no longer be recognized by the
Warning!
G
When leaving the vehicle always remove the
key from the starter switch, take the Smart-
Key with KEYLESS-GO (if so equipped) with
you and lock the vehicle. Do not leave chil-
dren unattended in the vehicle, or with ac-
cess to an unlocked vehicle. Unsupervised
use of vehicle equipment may cause serious
personal injury.!To prevent possible malfunction, avoid
exposing the SmartKey with
KEYLESS-GO to high levels of electro-
magnetic radiation.

your safety and the safety of others, we rec-
ommend that you pull over to a safe location

phone call. If you choose to use the tele-
phone while driving, please use the
hands-free device and only use the tele-
phone when road and traffic conditions per-
mit.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the driver from
using a cellular telephone while driving a ve-
hicle.
