General
The keyless drive function in the PCC allows
the car to be unlocked, driven and locked
without the need for a key. You simply have
to have the PCC with you. The system makes
it easier and more convenient to open the car,
e.g. when your hands are full.
Both of the car's PCCs incorporate the Key-
less function. Additional PCCs can be
ordered, see page 44.
PCC range
In order to open a door or the tailgate, a PCC
must be no more than approx. 1.5 metres

from the car door handle or tailgate. This
means that the person who wishes to lock or
unlock a door must have the PCC with him or
her. It is not possible to lock or unlock a door
if the PCC is on the opposite side of the car.
The red rings in the preceding illustration indi-
cate the range covered by the system's
antennas.
If all PCCs are removed from the car when
the engine is running or key position I or II is
active (see page 81) and if all doors are
closed, then a warning message is shown in
the combined instrument panel's display and
an audible reminder signal sounds at the
same time.
The warning message clears and the audible
reminder signal stops when the PCC is
brought back to the car after:
•
a door has been opened and closed
•
the PCC is inserted into the ignition
switch
•
the OK button has been pressed.
Handling the PCC safely
If a PCC with keyless drive function is left in
the car, it is deactivated temporarily when the
car is locked. This prevents unauthorised
entry.
However, if someone breaks into the car,
opens the door and finds the PCC, it can be
reactivated. It is therefore important to handle
all PCCs with great care.
IMPORTANT
Never leave a PCC behind in the car.
Interference to PCC function
Electromagnetic fields and screening can
interfere with the keyless drive system.
NOTE
Do not place/store the PCC near a mobile
phone or metal object - no closer than
10-15 cm.
If interference is experienced nonetheless,
use the PCC and the key blade as a remote
control key, see page 45.
