The key set
1 Master keys with remote control unit,
determine the functions of the Key
Memory, refer to page 54.
You can mark individual keys for
subsequent identification by applying
the colored decals that you received
when accepting delivery of your
vehicle.
Each master key is equipped with
an extended-life battery. This
battery is recharged in the ignition lock
during normal operation.
For this reason, if you have master keys
that are not being used you should use
those keys approx. once a year while
driving for an extended period to
charge the battery, refer also to
page
29.<

such as in your wallet. This key is not
intended for constant use

Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for
operation whenever the driver's door is
closed. The system engages and
releases the locks on the
> doors
> tailgate and rear window
> fuel filler door.
The central locking system can be
operated
> from outside via the remote control
as well as via the driver's door lock
> from inside by pressing a button.
Operating it from inside does not lock
the fuel filler door, refer to page 32.
When the system is operated from the
outside, the anti-theft system is acti-
vated simultaneously. Both the door
locks and release handles remain
locked. The alarm system is also armed
or disarmed.
If locked from the inside, the central
locking systems unlocks automatically
in the event of an accident, but only
doors which were not locked separately
with the door lock buttons, refer to
page 32. In addition, the hazard
warning flashers and interior lamps
come on.
