The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control
key. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle. The operating range
of the remote control key is approx. 30 m. But this range of the remote control
can be reduced if the batteries are weak.
The key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking and locking
the car manually and also for starting the engine.
The system must be initialised by a specialist garage if a lost key is replaced or
if the receiver unit has been repaired or replaced. Only then can the remote
control key be used again.
Note
The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switch-
■
ed on.
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).

Unlocking

doors or the tailgate are opened within the next 30 seconds, the vehicle is au-
tomatically locked again and the safe securing system or anti-theft alarm sys-
tem is reactivated. This function is intended to prevent the car being unlocked
unintentionally.
