Easy-entry/exit feature
The switch is located on the steering column adjustment
lever.
Turn the switch in direction:
1 to switch on
2
to switch off
With the easy-entry/exit feature activated, the steering
wheel tilts upwards to allow easier entry into and exit
from the vehicle when the driver’s door is opened.
However, the engine must be turned off.
When the electronic key is inserted in the starter switch
or, with a valid KEYLESS-GO-card, when pressing the
start-/stop button on the gear selector lever, and if the
driver’s door is closed, the steering wheel returns to the
last position set for it.
Warning!
You must ensure that no one can become trapped
or injured by the moving steering wheel with the
easy-entry/exit feature activated and you open the
driver’s door or remove the electronic key from the
starter switch. Do not leave children unattended in
the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Unsupervised use of vehicle equipment may cause
serious personal injury.
