Keyless vehicle starting

WARNINGS

  • Keyless starting may not work if the key is near metal objects or electronic devices, such as a mobile phone.
  • Always check that the steering wheel lock is released before moving off.

Note: A valid keyless (passive) key must be in the vehicle to switch on the ignition and start the engine.

Note: To start the engine, you must also fully depress the brake pedal or the clutch pedal, depending on the transmission fitted.
