Warning lamps

The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up when you attempt to
start the engine: the engine cannot

be started. The remote control is not inside the
vehicle or is malfunctioning. Take the remote
control with you inside the vehicle or have it
checked. If necessary, insert another remote
control into the ignition switch.

The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up while the engine is
running: the remote control is no

longer inside the vehicle. After the engine is
switched off, the engine can only be restarted
within approx. 10 seconds.

cluster comes on: replace the battery
in the remote control.
