Functions at different levels
To enable the use of a limited number of
functions with the engine switched off, the
car's electrical system can be set in 3 differ-
ent levels (key positions) - 0, I and II - with
the remote control key. This owner's manual
describes these levels throughout using the
denomination "key positions".
The following table shows the functions avail-
able in each key position/level.

lot of current from the battery
and should therefore be avoi-
ded!
