Introduction
Vehicle key
The key can be used to lock and unlock the car from a distance ⇒ Central locking system.
The remote control transmitter and the battery are integrated in the key. The receiver is located in
the vehicle interior. The remote control range is several metres around the vehicle when the battery
is fully charged.
If the vehicle cannot be opened and closed using the vehicle key, the vehicle key will have to be re-
synchronised ⇒ Synchronising the vehicle key, or the battery in the key replaced ⇒ Replacing the
battery.
Several vehicle keys can be used.

Swallowing batteries with a diameter of 20 mm or other lithium batteries can result in severe
or even fatal injuries within a very short period of time.
•Always keep the vehicle key, key ring with batteries, spare batteries, round cells and other
batteries that are larger than 20 mm out of the reach of children.
•Call for medical help immediately you suspect that someone has swallowed a battery.
DANGER
Improper or unsupervised use of the vehicle key can lead to accidents or injuries.
•Always take all vehicle keys with you every time you leave the vehicle. Children or
unauthorised persons could lock the doors and tailgate, start the engine, switch on the
ignition and thus operate electrical equipment, such as the electric windows.
•Never leave children or people requiring assistance alone in the vehicle. They could
become trapped in the vehicle in an emergency and may not be able to get themselves to
safety. For example, locked vehicles may be subjected to very high or very low
temperatures, according to season. This can cause serious injuries and illness or
fatalities, especially for small children.
•Never remove the vehicle key from the ignition lock when the vehicle is in motion. The
steering lock may be activated and you will no longer be able to steer the vehicle.
