Note: There must be clearance between
each touch of the door handle.

remain locked for a few seconds. When the
delay period is over, the doors can be
opened again, provided the passive key is
within the respective detection range.

be closed and, will pop back up if the
passive key is located inside the vehicle with
the doors locked.

Unlocking the vehicle

be a little longer than normal. Unlocking the
vehicle once will deactivate the
energy-saving mode.

several weeks, the keyless system will be
disabled. The vehicle must be unlocked
using the key blade. Unlocking the vehicle
once will enable the keyless system.
