a door or the boot is locked, to prevent

forgetting the key inside the car. If the key is

locked inside, it can only be retrieved by

using the second key provided.

3)

The operation of the recognition system

depends on various factors, such as, for

example, any electromagnetic wave

interference from external sources (e.g.

mobile phones), the charge of the battery in

the electronic key and the presence of metal

objects near the key or the car. In these

cases it is still possible to unlock the doors

by using the metal insert in the electronic

key (see description on the following pages).

“maximum heating”: three LEDs lit on

the buttons;

“medium heating”: two LEDs lit on the

buttons;
