KEYLESS GO*
The optional
equipment supplied with your vehicle includes two KEYLESS GO keys. You can
start, lock or unlock the vehicle using the KEYLESS GO key. To do this, you
need only carry the KEYLESS GO key on your person. When you touch the surface
of the sensors on the vehicle's door handles, KEYLESS GO establishes a radio
connection between the vehicle and the key. The distance between the KEYLESS GO
key and the vehicle's door handle from which you wish to lock or unlock the
vehicle, must not be greater than 1 m.
When you pull the door handle, the following unlock centrally if
the factory settings have not been changed:
-
the doors
-
the tailgate
-
the fuel filler
flap
If you pull on the handle
of the tailgate, only the tailgate of your vehicle is unlocked.
When starting the
engine and whilst driving, KEYLESS GO also checks whether a valid KEYLESS GO
key is in the vehicle by periodically establishing radio contact.
 | Risk of accident |
|
If children are left unsupervised in the vehicle, they could open a door from the inside, even if it has been locked. Or they could start the vehicle if a valid KEYLESS GO key is in the vehicle and they press the KEYLESS GO button on the ignition lock. They could endanger themselves and others. Never leave children unsupervised in the vehicle. Switch off the engine and take the KEYLESS GO key with you, even if you are only leaving the vehicle for a short time.

from the vehicle while the engine is running, e.g. if the front passenger
leaves the vehicle with the KEYLESS GO key, the following message will appear
in the multi-function display as you pull away:

-
If the KEYLESS GO key is in the vehicle, the vehicle can be
started at any time. If you have left the KEYLESS GO key in the vehicle, the
