Keyless Drive* - unlocking9
Unlocking takes place when a hand grasps a
door handle or the tailgate's rubberised pressure
plate is actuated - open the door or tailgate as
normal.
NOTE
The door handles normally register a hand
that takes hold of the handle, but with thick
gloves on or after a very quick hand move-
ment a second attempt may be required, or
with the glove taken off.

Keyless Drive* - unlocking with the
key blade
If central locking cannot be activated with the
remote control key, e.g. if the batteries are dis-
charged, then the left-hand front door is
unlocked with the remote control key's detacha-
ble key blade (p. 167).
Hole for key blade - to loosen the cover.
To access the lock cylinder, the door handle's
plastic cover must be removed - this is also done
with the key blade:
1. Press the key blade approx. 1 cm straight up
into the hole on the underside of the door
handle/cover - do not prize.
> The plastic cover loosens automatically by
means of the torque when the blade is
pushed straight up and into the opening.
2. Then insert the key blade in the lock cylinder
and unlock the door.
3. Refit the plastic cover after unlocking.
NOTE
When the left-hand front door is unlocked
using the key blade and is opened, this trig-
gers the alarm (p. 181). It is switched off by
inserting the remote control key in the ignition
switch, see Alarm* - remote control key not
working (p. 183).
