WARNING
● An improper use of the key can cause serious injuries.
● Never leave children or disabled persons in the vehicle. In case of
emergency, they may not be able to leave the vehicle or manage on their
own.

plicate the aid in case of emergency.
Note
● The radio frequency remote control key functions only when you are
within range ⇒ Fig. 46.
● If the vehicle cannot be unlocked or locked by using the radio frequency
remote control, the remote control key will have to be re-synchronised. For
this, go to your Technical Service.
Changing the battery
If the battery indicator does not flash when the buttons are pushed, the bat-
tery must be replaced.
CAUTION
The use of inappropriate batteries may damage the radio frequency remote
control. For this reason, always replace the dead battery with another of the
same size and power.
For the sake of the environment
Used batteries must be disposed of at an appropriate waste facility or
through an authorised service, given that their components can affect the
environment.
Synchronising the remote control key

is repeatedly pressed outside of the ef-
fective range of the radio frequency remote control. The remote control key
will have to be resynchronised.
Spare remote control keys are available in your Technical Service, where
they must be matched to the locking system.

Note
● After 28 days, the indicator light will be switched off to prevent the bat-
tery from exhausting if the vehicle has been left parked for a long period of
time. The alarm system remains activated.

Vehicle interior monitoring and tow-away protection
system*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm* which detects unauthorized vehicle entry by means
of ultrasound.
Activation
– It is automatically switched on when the anti-theft alarm is acti-
vated.
Deactivation
– Open the vehicle with the key, either mechanically 1)
or by press-
ing the
button on the remote control.
– Press the button
on the remote control twice. The volumetric
sensor and tilt sensors will be deactivated. The alarm system re-
mains activated. The vehicle interior monitoring and the tow-away protection system are au-
tomatically switched on again next time the vehicle is locked.
The vehicle interior monitoring and tow-away protection sensor (tilt sensor)
are automatically switched on when the anti-theft alarm is switched on. In
order to activate it, all the doors and the rear lid must be closed.
If you wish to switch off the vehicle interior monitoring and the tow-away
protection system, it must be done each time that the vehicle is locked; if
not, they will be automatically switched on.
The vehicle interior monitoring and the tow-away protection system should
be switched off if animals are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise, their
movements will trigger the alarm) or when, for example, the vehicle is trans-
ported or has to be towed with only one axle on the ground.
False alarms
The interior monitoring only operates correctly if the vehicle is completely
closed. Please observe legal requirements when doing so.
The following cases may cause a false alarm:
●
opened windows (partially or fully)
● panoramic/tilting sunroof open (partially or completely).
● movement of objects inside the vehicle, such as loose papers, items
hanging from the rear vision mirror (air fresheners), etc.
1)
The time period from when the door is opened until the key is inserted in the contact
should not exceed 15 sec., otherwise the alarm will be triggered.

fatal consequences. Close and lock both the rear lid and all the other
doors when you are not using the vehicle.

cause serious injury to you and to third parties. Make sure that no one is
in the path of the rear lid.

penetrate into the interior of the vehicle. Danger of poisoning!
● If you only open the rear lid, do not leave the key inside. The vehicle
will not be opened if the key is left inside.
Emergency opening
This allows the vehicle to be opened if the central locking
does not operate (for example, if the battery is flat)

One-touch opening and closing*
One-touch opening and closing means you do not have to
hold down the button.

window closes fully.
One-touch opening
– Push down the window button briefly up to the second position.

tery has been temporarily disconnected. The function can be re-
stored as follows:
– Close the window as far as it will go by lifting and holding the
electric window switch.
– Release the switch and then lift it again for one second. This
will re-enable the automatic function.
If you push (or pull) a button to the first stage, the window will open (or
close) until you release the button. If you push or lift the button briefly to
the second stage, the window will open (one-touch opening) or close (one-
touch closing) automatically. If you operate the button while the window is
opening or closing, it stops at this position. The one-touch opening and closing function will not function once the igni-
tion has been switched off.
The one-touch function and roll-back function will not work if there is a mal-
function in the electric windows. Contact a specialised workshop.
Roll-back function
The roll-back function reduces the risk of injury when the
electric windows close.
● If a window is obstructed when closing automatically, the window stops
at this point and lowers immediately ⇒
.
● Next, check why the window does not close before attempting it again.
● If you try within the following 10 seconds and the window closes again
with difficulty or there is an obstruction, the automatic closing will stop
working for 10 seconds.
● If the window is still obstructed, the window will stop at this point.
● If there is no obvious reason why the window cannot be closed, try to
close it again by pulling the tab within ten seconds. The window closes with
maximum force. The roll-back function is now deactivated.
If more than 10 seconds pass, the window will open fully when you operate
one of the buttons. One-touch closing is reactivated.
The one-touch function and roll-back function will not work if there is a mal-
function in the electric windows. Contact a specialised workshop.
