Starting a vehicle with keyless drive
Starting a vehicle with keyless drive
Keyless drive makes it possible to unlock, start
and lock the vehicle without using a remote
control.
A start control is fitted in the ignition switch on
vehicles equipped with the optional keyless
drive. This control is used in the same way as
the ignition key to start the engine. See also
page 140 for general information on starting
the engine.
A keyless drive remote control must be
inside the vehicle in order to start the
engine.
1. Press the brake pedal (the clutch pedal
must also be fully depressed on models
with a manual transmission).
2. Press in the keyless drive start control and
turn it to position
III.
The vehicle is equipped with an
autostart
function that makes it possible to start the
engine without holding the start control in
position III. Turn the start control to position
III and release it. The starter motor will then
operate automatically (for up to ten sec-
onds) until the engine starts.
Starting the vehicle with the ignition key
(remote control)
A vehicle with keyless drive can also be started
with the ignition key (if, for example, the battery
in the keyless drive remote control is weak). To
do so:
Removing the keyless drive start control
1. Press the catch on the side of the start
control (see the illustration).
2. Pull the keyless drive start control out of
the ignition switch.
3. Insert the remote control into the ignition
switch and turn it to position
III to start the
engine. See also page 140 for complete
starting information.
