System limits
It is not always possible to detect the desired re‐
mote control uniquely. This may be the case in
the following scenarios:
▷ The driver unlocks the vehicle using Comfort
Access and is carrying a number of remote
controls.
▷ If there is a change of driver without the vehi‐
cle being locked and unlocked.
▷ If a number of remote controls are located in
the area outside of the vehicle, on the driver's
side.
If the remote control has not been detected
uniquely, unlock the vehicle by pressing the but‐
ton on the desired remote control.
ConnectedDrive countries:
It is only possible to create a driver profile and
synchronise it with the ConnectedDrive account
if mobile telephone reception is available.
Using the personal settings stored in the Con‐
nectedDrive in other vehicles is subject to certain
technical restrictions. For example, there may be
stored settings for a system that is not available
in other vehicles, or only in an incompatible ver‐
sion.
