Operation
WARNING
Always withdraw the key whenever you leave the vehicle - even if it is only
■
for a short time. This is particularly important if children are left in the vehicle.
The children might otherwise start the engine or operate electrical equipment
(e.g. power windows) – risk of injury!
Do not withdraw the ignition key from the ignition lock until the vehicle has
■
come to a stop. The steering lock might otherwise engage unintentionally –
risk of accident!

tion lock.
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interfer-
■
ence from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
The battery must be replaced if the central locking does react to the remote
■
control at less than around 3 metres away
Note
If you lose a key, please contact a specialist garage, who will be able to provide
you with a new one.
