Two keys are provided with the vehicle. Depending on the equipment, your vehicle can be equipped with keys without radio remote control » Fig. 25 -  or
with radio remote control» Fig. 25 - .


WARNING

  • Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthorized 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 occurring!
  • When leaving the vehicle, never leave people who are not completely independent, 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 themselves.

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 ignition 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.
