Remote start - ERS*
General information on ERS
Remote start (ERS – Engine Remote Start)
means that the car's engine can be started
remotely using the remote control key. This is
so that the passenger compartment can be
warmed up/cooled down before departure.
The climate control starts with the same set-
tings that were being used when the car was
parked.
An ERS-started engine is activated for a maxi-
mum of 15 minutes, then it is switched off. After
two ERS-activations the engine must be
started in the normal way before ERS can be
re-used.
The ERS option is only available on cars with
automatic gearbox.
NOTE
Follow local/national rules/regulations on
idling.
WARNING
To remote-start the engine, the following
criteria must be met:
•
The car must be supervised
•
There must be no people or animals
inside the car
•
The car must not be parked in a closed,
unventilated area - the exhaust gases
may seriously injure humans and ani-
mals.
2
Cars with Keyless drive must have a remote control key inside the passenger compartment.
