Opening and closing
Note
If the 12-volt vehicle battery has little or no
char
ge, or the vehicle key battery is almost
or entirely out of charge, you will probably
not be able to lock or unlock the vehicle
with the Keyless Access system. The vehi-
cle can be unlocked and locked manually
›››page98.
Note
If there is no vehicle key in the vehicle or
the syst
em does not detect it, a warning will
be displayed on the instrument cluster. This
could happen if any other radio frequency
signal interferes with the key signal or if the
key is covered by another object, e.g. a metal
case.
Anti-theft alarm
Description
Depending on the equipment, the vehicle may
be fitted with an anti-theft alarm.
The theft alarm monitors the doors, bonnet and
rear lid.
The anti-theft alarm system activates automat-
ically when the vehicle is locked.
If the vehicle is not opened electronically with
a valid key, the alarm triggers and emits audio
and light signals for a maximum of approx. 5
minutes.
When is the anti-theft alarm triggered?
●
If a mechanically unlocked door is opened
with the vehicle key, you have 15 seconds to
switch on the ignition before the alarm is trig-
gered (depending on markets, the 15 seconds
waiting time disappears and the alarm is trig-
gered immediately when the door is opened).
●
If the bonnet is opened.
●
If the rear lid is opened.
●
If an invalid vehicle key is used.
●
If there are movements inside the vehicle (in
vehicles with interior monitoring ›››page97).
●
If the vehicle is lifted or towed (for vehicles
with an anti-tow system ›››page97.
●
If the vehicle is transported on a ferry or by
rail (in vehicles with an anti-tow system or inte-
rior monitoring ›››page97).
●
If the 12-volt battery is disconnected.
●
If the window is broken.
●
When a trailer connected to the theft alarm
system is unhitched.
Switching o the alarm
●
Unlock the vehicle with the vehicle key un-
locking button
.
●
Grip the door handle.
●
Switch the ignition on. Pl
ease note: to turn on
the ignition, place the vehicle key in the area
provided for it to perform an emergency start.
Note
●
After 28 days, the indicator light will be
s
witched o to prevent the battery from ex-
hausting if the vehicle has been left parked
for a long period of time. The alarm system
remains activated.
●
If, after the audible warning goes o, an-
other monitored area is accessed (e.g. the
rear lid is opened after a door has been
opened), the alarm is triggered again.
●
The anti-theft alarm is not activated when
the vehicle is locked from within using the
central locking button
.
●
If the driver door is unlocked mechanically
with the k
ey, only the driver door is unlocked,
the rest of the doors remain locked. Only
when the ignition has been turned on will the
other doors be available - but not unlocked -
and the central locking button will be activa-
ted.
●
Vehicle monitoring remains active even if
the battery is disconnected or not working
for any reason.
