Key positions - functions at different
levels
To enable the use of a limited number of
functions with the engine switched off, the
car's electrical system can be set in 3 differ-
ent levels - 0, I and II - with the remote con-
trol key. This owner's manual describes these
levels throughout using the denomination
"key positions".
The following table shows the functions avail-
able in each key position/level.
Level Functions
0Odometer, clock and temperature
gauge are illuminated.
Electrically operated seats can be
adjusted.
The audio system can be used for
a limited time - see the Sensus
Infotainment supplement.
ISun visor for glass roof, power
windows, 12 V socket in the pas-
senger compartment, RTI, phone,
ventilation fan and windscreen
wipers can be used.
II The headlamps come on.
Warning/indicator lamps illumi-
nate for 5 seconds.
Several other systems are acti-
vated. However, electric heating
in seat cushions and the rear win-
dow can only be activated after
starting the engine.
This key position consumes a
lot of current from the starter
battery and should therefore be
avoided!
