Comfort access*

Comfort access enables you to access your
vehicle without having to hold the remote con-
trol in your hand. It is sufficient to carry the

pocket. The vehicle automatically detects the
related remote control in the immediate vicinity
or in the interior.
Comfort access supports the following func-
tions:

rately

Functional requirement

The vehicle or the luggage compartment lid
can only be locked if the vehicle detects that

The next unlocking and locking cycle is not
possible until after approx. 2 seconds.

The engine can only be started if the vehicle
detects that the remote control is located in
the vehicle.
