ment. It is therefore important when
handling the remote control to ensure
that you do not lock or unlock the ve-
hicle by inadvertently pressing the but-
tons.

The presence of certain objects (metal
objects, mobile telephones, or an area
with strong electromagnetic radiation,
etc.) close to the key may create inter-
ference and affect the operation of the

If you lose your remote control key
or require another, you can obtain
one from an approved dealer.

the vehicle and all of its remote
control keys to an authorised
dealer to reset them.
You may use up to four remote con-
trol keys per vehicle.

serted correctly. These batteries
have a service life of approximately
