Instruments and controls Operation Driving Instrument cluster display 38 Practical hints Car care Technical data Index Central locking system • Opening the driver's door with the engine shut off and no electronic key in the starter switch, the message "CHIP-CARD - DO NOT FORGET" appears as a reminder, see page 324. Important In the case of a malfunction in the KEYLESS-GO-system, we recommend that you carry the electronic key plus mechanical key with you and keep them in a safe place so that they are always handy. Never leave the electronic key in the vehicle. Notes: The KEYLESS-GO-function also permits closing of windows and sliding/pop-up roof (convenience feature), see page 45. With the KEYLESS-GO-card in close proximity (approx. 3 ft. [1 m]) of the vehicle, aiming a jet of water at a door handle (e.g. when washing the vehicle) or cleaning snow from a door, could lock or unlock the vehicle inadvertently. To prevent a possible inadvertent lockout, the trunk lid will open automatically if a KEYLESS-GO-card is recognized in the area of the rear shelf or inside the trunk.
