will not be able to be lock or unlocked with
the Keyless Access system. The vehicle can
be unlocked or locked manually ››› page 259.
● If there is no valid key inside the vehicle or
the system fails to detect one, a warning will
display on the dash panel screen. This could
happen if any other radio frequency signal in- terferes with the key signal (e.g. from a mo-
bile device accessory) or if the key is covered
by another object (e.g. an aluminium case).
● If the sensors are very dirty, e.g. have a lay-
er of salt, how the sensors on the door han-
dles operate may be affected. If this is the
case, wash the vehicle ››› page 195.
