Keys

The key set

1 Master keys with remote control.

These govern the Key Memory func-
tions. Bear in mind that some func-
tions of your car may respond differ-
ently, depending on which key is
used, see page

You can use the coloured adhesive
labels you received with the car as
identifiers for the keys with remote
control.

Each master key contains a long-
life battery which is automatically

recharged in the ignition switch during
the journey. You should, therefore, use
any master key that is not normally in
use to drive the car on a lengthy trip at
least every six months, in order to
recharge the battery.

2 Spare key – to be kept in a safe

place, for instance in a purse or wal-
let. This key is not intended for regu-
lar use. It does not lock or unlock the
luggage compartment lid or the glove
box, so it can safely be handed to
car-parking staff in a hotel, for
instance

Central locking system

The principle

The central locking becomes active
when the driver's door is closed. The
following are locked and unlocked
together:
> Doors

> Luggage compartment lid

> Fuel filler flap.
The central locking system can be
operated
> from outside the car with the remote

control or at the lock of the driver's
door

> from inside, using the button pro-

vided.

Operating the central locking system
from inside the car does not lock the
fuel filler flap, see page

. If it is oper-

ated from outside the car, the anti-theft
system is activated at the same time. It
prevents the doors from being unlocked
either at the safety lock buttons or door
handles. The alarm system is also acti-
vated or deactivated.

In the event of an accident, the central
locking system is released automati-
cally. In addition, the hazard warning
flashers and the interior light are
switched on.
