Controls in detail
Always verify the correct operation of the
remote keyless entry transmitter by check-
ing whether the locking knobs on the driv-
er's and co-driver's doors move down and
whether the turn signals flash.
The remote control unlocks the driver's
door and/or all doors centrally. If pro-
grammed as a factory setting, it locks the
following centrally:
O the driver's and co-driver's door
O the sliding doors
O the rear doors
i If the driver's or co-driver's door is not com-
pletely closed, the respective door is not locked.
If one sliding door or rear door is not completely
closed, no doors of the load compartment are
locked.
The remote keyless entry transmitter will
not function when there is a vehicle key in-
serted in the ignition lock.

G Warning
Do not leave children unsupervised in the ve-
hicle even if they are secured in a child re-
straint system. The children could injure
themselves on parts of the vehicle. They
could be severely or even fatally injured by
prolonged exposure to intense heat or cold.
If the children open a door, they could:
O cause injury to others as a result
O get out of the vehicle and could either in-
jure themselves when doing so or they
could be injured by passing vehicles
O sustain serious injuries if they were to fall
out of the vehicle, due in particular to the
height of the passenger compartment from
the ground
Always take the key with you when leaving
the vehicle, even if you are only leaving for a
short time.
