WARNING■Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
ized persons, such as children, for example, could lock the car, turn on the
ignition or start the engine - there is the danger of injury and accidents oc-
curring!■
When leaving the vehicle, never leave people who are not completely in-
dependent, such as children, unattended in the vehicle. The children might,
for example, release the handbrake or take the vehicle out of gear. The
vehicle could then start to move – risk of accident! These individuals would
possibly not be able to leave the vehicle on their own or to help them-
selves. At very high or very low temperatures can be fatal!
CAUTION
■ Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
against moisture and severe shocks.■
Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust,
etc.) have a negative effect on the functionality of the locking cylinder and ig-
nition lock.
■
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 only reacts to the remote
control at less than 3 metres away » page 43.

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.

■ 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.
