Opening and closing

Avoiding unintentional alarms

The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor
may be switched off at the same time. This pre-
vents unintentional alarms, e.g. in the following
situations:

In duplex garages

During transport on car-carrying trains,
boats/ships or on a trailer

When animals are to remain in the vehicle

Switching off tilt alarm sensor and

interior motion sensor

Press the

button on the remote control

again as soon as the vehicle is locked.
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and then
flashes continuously. The tilt alarm sensor and
the interior motion sensor are switched off until
the next time the vehicle is unlocked and subse-
quently locked again.

Convenient access*

Convenient access enables you to enter your
vehicle without needing to hold the remote con-
trol in your hand. All you need to do is wear the
remote control close to your body, e.g. in your
jacket pocket. The vehicle detects the corre-
sponding remote control within the immediate
vicinity or in the passenger compartment.
Convenient access supports the following
functions:

Unlocking/locking the vehicle

Unlocking the luggage compartment lid/
tailgate separately

Engine starting

Convenient closure

Functional requirement

The vehicle or the luggage compartment
lid/tailgate can only be locked when the
vehicle detects that the remote control cur-
rently in use is outside of the vehicle.

The vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked
again until after approx. 2 seconds.

The engine can only be started when the
vehicle detects that the remote control cur-
rently in use is inside the vehicle.

Comparison to the standard remote

control

In general, there is no difference between using
convenient access or pressing the buttons on
the remote control to carry out the functions
mentioned above. You should therefore first
familiarize yourself with the instructions on
opening and closing starting on page

Special features regarding the use of conve-
nient access are described below.

If you notice a brief delay while opening or
closing windows or the glass roof/pan-

orama glass roof, the system is checking
whether a remote control is inside the vehicle.
Please repeat the opening or closing proce-
dure, if necessary.

senger's door completely, arrow

sponds to pressing the

button.
