Keyless drive information messages
If anyone leaves the vehicle with the only keyless drive remote control in his or her possession while the ignition is
switched on, a message will be shown in the information display and an audible signal will sound.
NOTE
This message will only be displayed if the start control is in position I or II.
The message will be erased from the display and the audible signal will stop when the remote control has been
returned to the vehicle and one of the following has occurred:
A door has been opened and closed
The start control has been turned to position 0
The READ button (see page 53 for the location of this button) has been pressed.
CAUTION
Keyless drive remote controls should never be left in the vehicle. In the event of a break-in, a remote found in the
vehicle could make it possible to start the engine.
Electromagnetic fields or metal obstructions can interfere with the keyless drive system. Avoid placing the remote
control near cellular phones, metallic objects or e.g., in a metal briefcase.

A start control is fitted in the ignition switch on vehicles equipped with the optional keyless drive. This control is used
in the same way as the ignition key to start the engine. See also page 140
for general information on starting the
engine.
NOTE

engine.

The vehicle is equipped with an autostart function that makes it possible to start the engine without holding the start
control in position III. Turn the start control to position III and release it. The starter motor will then operate
automatically (for up to ten seconds) until the engine starts.
