When using a smartphone as a digital key, al‐
ways carry a vehicle key or the activated Key
Card with you. This ensures access to the vehi‐
cle, even in the event of a smartphone malfunc‐
tion. It is also useful to carry the vehicle key or
the Key Card with you if the vehicle has to be
handed over to another person. You can then
hand over the vehicle key or the Key Card, in‐
stead of your smartphone. Always take the vehi‐
cle key with you to a service appointment.
