Before opening or closing the side windows, a
check is carried out to see whether a valid
SmartKey is in the vehicle. The check is carried
out if you use the start/stop button instead of a
SmartKey in the ignition and you press or pull a
button while the engine is switched off. This is
carried out by means of a brief radio connection
between the vehicle and the SmartKey.
