Key positions - functions at different levels

מעודכן 08.06.2023

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 different 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".

The following table shows the functions available in each key position/level.

Level	Functions
0	Odometer, clock and temperature gauge are illuminated. Power seats can be adjusted. The audio system can be used for a limited time - see the Sensus Infotainment supplement.
I	Sun visor for glass roof, power windows, 12 V socket in the passenger compartment, RTI, phone, ventilation fan and windscreen wipers can be used.
II	The headlamps come on. Warning/indicator lamps illuminate for 5 seconds. Several other systems are activated. However, heating in seat cushions and the rear window can only be activated after the engine has been started. This key position consumes a lot of current from the starter battery and should therefore be avoided!
