Key range

In order to function correctly, the key must be within a certain distance from the vehicle.

Manual use

The key's functions for e.g. locking and unlocking, which are activated by pressing PS-Icon-Remote key lock/global close or PS-Icon-Remote key for unlocking, have a range of approx. 20 meters (65 feet) from the vehicle.

If the vehicle's locks do not react, move closer and try again.

Keyless use

The shaded areas around the vehicle illustrate the range of the system's antennas.

For keyless use, a key must be within the shaded areas shown in the illustration, i.e. a semicircle with a radius of approx. 1.5 meters (5 feet) along the sides of the vehicle or approx. 1 meter (3 feet) from the trunk lid.

 Note

The functions of the key can be disrupted by ambient radio waves, buildings, topographical conditions, etc. The vehicle can always be locked or unlocked using the key blade.

If the key is removed from the vehicle

The message will disappear when the key is returned to the vehicle and the O button on the right-side steering wheel keypad is pressed or when the last door is closed again.
