Key positions - functions at different
levels
In order 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 (key positions) - 0 , I and II - with the
remote control key. Throughout this owner's
manual these levels are described using the
denomination "key positions".

able in each key position/level.
