row 2.

cannot be opened.

using valet service. The infrared remote con‐
trol can be handed out without the key.

Comfort Access
The concept
The vehicle can be accessed without activat‐
ing the remote control.
All you need to do is to have the remote con‐
trol with you, such as in your pants pocket.
The vehicle automatically detects the remote
control when it is nearby or in the passenger
compartment.
