Vehicles with automatic transmission
Apply the parking brake firmly.
Shift the transmission to position
P.
Using the SmartKey
Turn the SmartKey to position 0
in the ignition lock and remove it.
The immobilizer is activated.
The SmartKey can only be removed
if the
transmission is in position P.
Using KEYLESS-GO
Press the Start/Stop button.
The engine stops and all the indicator
lamps in the instrument cluster go out.
When the driver's door is
closed, this
corresponds to SmartKey position 1. When
the driver's door is open, it corresponds to
SmartKey position 0 or "SmartKey
removed".
If you attempt to switch off the engine while the selector lever is in a position other than P, a message appears in the multifunction display and you hear a tone.
