STARTING A PETROL ENGINE
The Smart Key may not be detected if it
is placed within a metal container or if it
is shielded by a device with a back-lit
LCD screen, such as a smart phone,
laptop (including laptop bag), games
console etc. Keep the Smart Key clear of
such devices when attempting Keyless
entry or Keyless starting.
With the brake pedal applied (1) and with a

and release the START/STOP button (2). The

gear can be selected.

such devices when attempting Keyless
