You can control the above functions using com-
fort access or by pressing the buttons on the
remote control. Consequently, you should
begin by familiarising yourself with the instruc-
tions for opening and closing, starting on
page 26.
The features specific to comfort access are

A short delay when opening or closing the
windows or panorama glass roof
cates that a test is being carried out to ascertain
whether there is a remote control inside the car.
You may need to repeat the opening or closing
operation.<
