Radio remote control
synchronisation
After replacing the battery, unlock the
door with the key in the driver's door
lock. The radio remote control is
synchronised when the ignition is
switched on.
Fault
If the central locking system cannot
be operated with the radio remote
control, it may be due to the following:
● The range is exceeded.
● The battery voltage is too low.
● Frequent, repeated operation of the radio remote control while notin range, which will require re-
synchronisation.● 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.
Electronic key system
Enables a keyless operation of the
following functions:
● central locking system 3 23
● starting the engine 3 137
The electronic key simply needs to be on the driver's person.
Additionally, the electronic key
includes the functionality of the radio
remote control 3 20.
Handle with care, protect from
moisture and high temperatures and
avoid unnecessary operation.
Notice
Do not put the electronic key in the
load compartment or in front of the
Info-Display.
Replacing battery in electronic
key

system no longer operates properly
or the range is reduced. The need for battery replacement is indicated by a
message in the Driver Information
Centre 3 103.

Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.
Electronic key synchronisation
The electronic key synchronises itself automatically during every starting
procedure.
Fault
If the central locking cannot be
operated or the engine cannot be
started, the cause may be one of the
following:
● Fault in electronic key.
● Electronic key is out of reception range.
● The battery voltage is too low.
● 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.
To rectify the cause of the fault,
change the position of the electronic
key.

86Instruments and controlsBecause of the fuel remaining in the
tank, the top-up quantity may be less
than the specified tank capacity.
Fuel selector
Press LPG to switch between petrol
and liquid gas operation. The LED in
the button shows the current
operating mode.
LED off:petrol operationLED
flashes:checking conditions for
fuel transition to liquid
gas operation.

five
times
and
extin‐
guishes:liquid gas tank is empty
or failure in liquid gas
system. A message is
displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
If the fuel tank is empty, the engine
will not start.
The selected fuel mode is stored and reactivated at the next ignition cycle if
conditions allow.
As soon as the liquid gas tanks are
empty, petrol operation is
automatically engaged until the
ignition is switched off.
When switching automatically
between petrol or gas operation, a
brief delay of engine tractive power
may be noticeable.
Every six months, run the petrol tank
down until control indicator Y
illuminates, then refuel. This helps
maintain fuel quality and system
function for petrol operation.
Fill the tank completely at regular
intervals to prevent corrosion in the
tank.
Fuel for liquid gas operation 3 168.
Faults and remedies
If gas mode is not possible, check the following:
● Is there enough liquid gas present?
● Is there enough petrol present for
starting?
Due to extreme temperatures in
combination with the gas
composition, it may take slightly
longer before the system switches
from petrol to gas mode.
In extreme situations, the system may
also switch back to petrol mode if the minimum requirements are not
fulfilled. If conditions allow, it may be possible to manually switch back to
liquid gas operation.
Seek the assistance of a workshop in
the event of all other faults.
