Keyless drive* - PCC range
In order to open a door or the tailgate, a PCC
must be no more than approx. 1.5 metres
from the car door handle or tailgate.
The person who wishes to lock or unlock a
door must have the PCC with him or her. It is
not possible to lock or unlock a door if the
PCC is on the opposite side of the car.
The red rings in the above figure indicate the
range covered by the system's antennas.
If all PCCs are removed from the car when
the engine is running or key position I or II (p.
69) is active, and if all doors are closed, then
a warning message is shown in the informa-
tion display in the combined instrument panel
and an audio reminder signal sounds at the
same time.
When the PCC has been returned to the car,
the warning message goes off and the audi-
ble reminder ceases once either/or:
•
a door has been opened and closed
•
the PCC is inserted into the ignition
switch
•
the OK button has been pressed.

Keyless drive* - handling the PCC
safely
It is important to handle all remote control
keys with great care.
If a PCC with keyless function is left in the
car, it is deactivated temporarily when the car
is locked. This prevents unauthorised entry.
However, if someone breaks into the car and
finds the PCC, it can be reactivated. It is
therefore important to handle all PCCs with
great care.
IMPORTANT
Never leave a PCC in the car.
