This system makes it possible to unlock and
lock the vehicle without having to use the
remote key. It is only necessary to have a key-
less drive remote key in your possession to
operate the central locking system.

The buttons on the keyless drive remote key
can also be used to lock and unlock the
vehicle, see page 122 for more information.
Both of the remote keys provided with the vehi-
cle have the keyless function, and additional
remotes can be ordered. The system can
accommodate up to six keyless drive remote
keys.
NOTE
The number of doors that are unlocked at
the same time can be set in the Personal
settings menu, see page 84 for additional
information.
