CAUTION
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by signal in-

frequency range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
The operating range of the remote control key is approx. 30 m. But this range
■
is reduced if the battery charge level is low.
The battery must be replaced if the central locking only reacts to the remote
■
control at less than 3 metres away
Notice
The remote control will operate only when visual contact with the vehicle.
