The purpose of the w

o remember to
switch off the ignition before leaving the vehi-

WARNING
If the vehicle keys are used negligently or
without proper att
ention, accidents and se-
rious injuries can occur.
Never leave any key inside the vehicle
when exiting. The key can connect the drive
system and certain electrical equipment
can be operated, such as electric windows,
which can cause serious injuries.
When locking the vehicle, never leave
any child or anyone who may need help in-
side. They could be trapped in the car in an
emergency and will not be able to get
themselves to safety. Thus, for example,
depending on the season, a closed vehicle
can reach very high or very low tempera-
tures that can cause serious injuries and ill-
nesses or even death, especially in the
case of young children.
Never remove the key from the ignition
lock when the vehicle is moving. The steer-
ing column lock could suddenly become
locked and it would be impossible to steer
the vehicle.
The bit of the vehicle key must be com-
pletely unfolded and locked.
Do not fix objects that e
xceed 100 g in to-
tal to the vehicle key.
Note
If the v
ehicl
e key remains for a long time
in position
2
of the ignition lock with the
electric driv
e system disconnected, the 12-
volt battery will discharge.
The key can only be removed from the ig-
nition lock if the selector lever is in position
P. If necessary, press the lock key on the
selector lever and release it again.
