or by using a compatible holder or shell.
A mat can also be used provided that it is
approved by the Manufacturer.
The charging area is identified by the Qi symbol.
The charger works with the engine running and
with the Stop & Start system in STOP mode.

With the Keyless Entry and Start system, the
charger’s operation may be briefly disrupted when
a door is opened or the ignition is switched off.
