You can use the remote control key to:
› unlock and lock the vehicle,
› unlocking boot lid;
› open and close the windows
» page 53, Window convenience operation .
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control
key. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle. The operating range of the remote control key is approx. 30 m. But this range of the remote control
can be reduced if the batteries are weak.
The key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking and locking
the car manually and also for starting the engine.
The system must be initialised by a specialist garage if a lost key is replaced or
if the receiver unit has been repaired or replaced. Only then can the remote
control key be used again.
Note
■ The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switch-
ed on.■
Operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interference
from transmitters close to the car operating in the same frequency range (e.g.
mobile phone, TV transmitter).
■ The battery must be replaced if the central locking or anti-theft alarm system
does react to the remote control at less than 3 metres away » page 43.■
If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote con-
trol key.

Operation
49
Interior monitor and towing protection
50
The anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against people
seeking to break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warn-
ing signals if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle.
Note■ The working life of the alarm siren is 5 years.■Before leaving the car, it must be checked that all of the windows, doors and
the electric sliding/tilting roof are properly closed to ensure the full functional-
ity of the anti-theft alarm system.■
Coding of the radio remote control and the receiver unit precludes the use of
the radio remote control from other vehicles.
Operation
How is the alarm system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated when the vehicle is locked with the
radio remote control or the key in the driver's door . It is activated 30 seconds
after locking the door.
How is the alarm system deactivated?
The alarm system is deactivated by pressing the button on the remote con-
trol. The anti-theft alarm system is reactivated if the vehicle is not opened
within 30 seconds after transmitting the radio signal.
Triggering the alarm
The alarm is triggered when the following unauthorized actions are carried out
on the locked vehicle.
› Opening the bonnet.
› Opening the boot lid.
› Opening the doors.
› Manipulation of the ignition lock.
› Towing the vehicle
» page 50;
› Movement in the vehicle
» page 50.
› Sudden and significant voltage drop of the electrical system.
› Uncoupling the trailer
» page 125.
If the driver's door of a vehicle with a remote control is unlocked and opened
by the lock cylinder, then the alarm is triggered.
Switching off the alarm
The alarm is turned off by pressing the button on the radio remote control
key or switching on the ignition.
CAUTION
Before leaving the vehicle, it must be checked that all of the windows, doors
and the sliding/tilting roof are locked in order to ensure the full functionality of
the anti-theft alarm system.49Unlocking and locking

CAUTION■Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric
windows.■
Should the windows freeze, first remove the ice » page 131, Windows and
exterior mirrors and only then operate the power windows. Otherwise, the
window seal and the power window mechanism could be damaged.
■
In the winter, ice on the window may cause greater resistance as the win-
dow is closed. The window will stop and open again by several centimetres.
■
Always make sure that the windows are closed when you leave the locked
vehicle.
For the sake of the environment
At high speeds, you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily high fuel consumption.
Note
■ After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the win-
dows for approx. 10 minutes. After the driver's or front passenger's door has
been opened, the windows can only be operated by using A
» Fig. 37 on
page 52 .
■
When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventila-
tion system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. If the windows are
opened, dust as well as other dirt can get into the vehicle and in addition the
wind noise is more at certain speeds.

Climatronic in automatic mode ensures the best-possible setting of the tem-
perature of the outflowing air, the blower stage and air distribution.
The system also takes sunlight into account, which eliminates the need to al-
ter the settings manually.
The cooling system operates only if the following conditions are met. The cooling system is switched on » page 90.
The engine is running.
The outside temperature is above approximately +2 °C.
If the coolant temperature is too high, the cooling system is switched off to
ensure that the engine cools down.
Note
■ We recommend that you have Climatronic cleaned by a specialist garage
once every year.■
During operation of the Climatronic, under certain circumstances an increase
in engine idle speed can occur in order to ensure adequate heating comfort.

The interior temperature can be set between +18 °C and +29 ℃. The interior
temperature is regulated automatically within this range.
If you set the temperature below +18 ℃, “LO” appears in the display.
If you set a temperature higher than +29 ℃, “HI” appears in the display.
In both end positions, the Climatronic operates at maximum cooling or heating capacity. There is therefore no automatic temperature control.
CAUTIONLengthy and uneven distribution of the air flow out of the vents (especially
around the feet) and large differences in temperature, for example, when get-
ting out of the vehicle, can cause susceptible individuals to catch a cold.
Recirculated air mode
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air from outside the vehicle getting in-
to the vehicle, for example when driving through a tunnel or when standing in
a traffic jam.

WARNINGNever leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period, as “stale air” can
cause fatigue in the driver and the passengers, reduce attention levels and
also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increa-
ses. Switch off recirculated air mode as soon as the windows start to mist
up.
Note
If recirculated air mode is switched on for around 15 minutes, the symbol
will begin to flash in the display as a sign that the recirculated air mode is
switched on long-term. If the recirculated air mode is not switched off, the
symbol flashes for around 5 minutes.
