Important information for using<br />
KEYLESS-GO<br />
RYou can use the KEYLESS-GO key as a<br />
conventional key.<br />
RYou can combine KEYLESS-GO functions<br />
with those of a conventional key (e.g. open<br />
with KEYLESS-GO and close with the<br />
& button).<br />
RAlways carry your KEYLESS-GO key on your<br />
person.<br />
RNever keep the KEYLESS-GO key with:<br />
- electronic equipment, such as your<br />
mobile phone or another key<br />
- metal objects, such as coins or metal foil<br />
This may impair the functioning of KEYLESS-<br />
GO.<br />
RTo open or close the vehicle, the KEYLESS-<br />
GO key should be no more than 3 ft (1 m)<br />
from the door or trunk/cargo area.<br />
RWhen the vehicle is parked for more than<br />
72 hours, the KEYLESS-GO function is<br />
deactivated. Pull one of the outer door<br />
handles and turn on the ignition to<br />
reactivate the KEYLESS-GO function.<br />
RIf the KEYLESS-GO key is not near the<br />
vehicle, it is possible that the system may<br />
not recognize it. In this case, the vehicle<br />
cannot be locked or started with KEYLESS-<br />
GO.<br />
RIf the KEYLESS-GO key has been removed<br />
from the vehicle (e.g. if a passenger leaves<br />
the vehicle with the KEYLESS-GO key):<br />
- while someone is holding the Start/Stop<br />
button or attempting to lock the vehicle<br />
with the outer door handle, the message<br />
Key not detected appears in the<br />
multifunction display<br />
- while the engine is running, the red<br />
message Key not detected appears in<br />
the multifunction display as you pull<br />
away. Find the KEYLESS-GO key or<br />
change its current position immediately<br />
(e.g. place it on the front-passenger seat<br />
or carry it in your shirt pocket.)<br />
RIf you have started the engine using the<br />
Start/Stop button, you can turn if off again<br />
by:<br />
- pressing the Start/Stop button again<br />
- inserting the KEYLESS-GO key in the<br />
ignition lock when the vehicle is<br />
stationary and the automatic<br />
transmission is in parking position P.<br />
RYou may accidentally unlock the vehicle if<br />
the KEYLESS-GO key is within 3 ft (1 m) of<br />
the vehicle and:<br />
- an outer door handle comes into contact<br />
with water<br />
or<br />
- you are cleaning an outer door handle.<br />
RNote that the engine can be started by any<br />
vehicle occupant if a KEYLESS-GO key is in<br />
the vehicle.<br />
Option 1: there is a KEYLESS-GO key in the<br />
vehicle and a KEYLESS-GO key outside the<br />
vehicle. If you leave the KEYLESS-GO key<br />
behind when you get out and lock the<br />
vehicle, a message does not appear in the<br />
multifunction display.<br />
Option 2: there is a KEYLESS-GO key in the<br />
vehicle but no KEYLESS-GO key outside the<br />
vehicle. When you get out and try to lock<br />
the vehicle, the message Key still in<br />
vehicle appears in the multifunction<br />
display. The vehicle is not locked in this<br />
case.<br />
When starting the engine and while driving,<br />
KEYLESS-GO also checks whether a valid key<br />
is in the vehicle by periodically establishing<br />
radio contact.
