22Keys, doors and windowsCar Pass
The Car Pass contains security
related vehicle data and should
therefore be kept in a safe place.
When the vehicle is taken to a
workshop, this vehicle data is needed
in order to perform certain operations.
Radio remote control
Used to operate: ● central locking system 3 26
● load compartment 3 35
● anti-theft locking system 3 37
● anti-theft alarm system 3 38
The remote control has a range of
approx. 5 m. It can be restricted by
external influences. The hazard
warning flashers confirm operation.
Handle with care, protect it from
moisture and high temperatures and
avoid unnecessary operation.
Depending on model, the vehicle may
use a 2-button or 3-button remote
control or an electronic key which
includes the functionality of the
remote control.
Electronic key system 3 23.
Fault
If the central locking system cannot
be operated with the remote control,
it may be due to the following:
● The range is exceeded.
● The battery voltage is too low.
● Frequent, repeated operation of the remote control while not in
range, which will require
reprogramming by a workshop.● Overload of the central locking system by operating at frequent
intervals; the power supply is
interrupted for a short time.
● Interference from higher-power radio waves from other sources.
Manual key operation 3 26.
Remote control battery

Replace the battery as soon as the
range reduces.
Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.

Do not put the electronic key in the
load compartment during driving, as
this is outside of the detection zone
(indicated by a warning chime at low speed 3 105 and a message in the

Note
In the event the electronic key is kept
in the front passenger compartment
and a message appears in the Driver
Information Centre (possibly
accompanied by a warning chime)
indicating that it is out of reception
range, we recommend inserting the
electronic key in the card reader.
Note
If the electronic key is not detected
in the front passenger compartment
after opening and closing a door with the engine running, a messageappears in the Driver Information
Centre (accompanied by a warning
chime when a certain speed is
exceeded), indicating that it is out of
reception range.This helps you avoid, e.g., driving off
after dropping off a passenger who
has the electronic key.
The message disappears when the
electronic key is detected again.
Hands-free operation is automatically
disabled when the electronic key
buttons have been operated or the
central locking switch e 3 26 is
pressed. To re-enable hands-free operation, restart the engine.
