Keys

The car has two types of physical keys – the standard key and the key tag.
PS-2007- Keys overview both variants
The standard key and the button-less key (Key Tag).

The keyless start function means that it is sufficient for a key to be inside the car in order to start it.

Keys can be linked to different user profiles with personal preferences.

Standard key buttons

The key has four buttons - one on the left-hand side and three on the right-hand side.

  2. A longer button press closes all windows.
  3. PS-Icon-Remote key for unlocking  Unlocking – A button press unlocks the doors and tailgate while also deactivating the alarm at the same time.
  4. A longer button press opens all windows in order to air the car quickly in hot weather, for example.
  5. PS-Icon-Remote key for trunk opening/closing  Tailgate – A button press unlocks the tailgate while also deactivating the alarm at the same time.
  6. A longer button press opens the tailgate. The tailgate is also closed with a longer button press – acoustic warning signals sound.
  7. PS-Icon-Remote key for panic alarm  Panic function – Used to attract attention in an emergency. Press and hold the button for at least 3 seconds or press it twice within 3 seconds to activate the car's direction indicators and horn1. The function can be switched off using the unlock button after it has been active for at least 5 seconds. Otherwise it is deactivated automatically after 2 minutes and 45 seconds.

 Warning

If anyone is left in the car, make sure the power windows are de-energised by always taking the key with you when you leave the car.

 Note

A key that has been locked in the car is temporarily deactivated and cannot be used before the car has been unlocked using another valid key.

The double lock function* is also deactivated.

Button-less key (Key Tag)

The key tag can be used for starting the car and keyless locking and locking in the same way as the standard key. The key is waterproof to a depth of approx. 10 metres (30 feet) for up to 60 minutes. It does not have an fold-out key blade, and the battery is not replaceable.

Interference

Key functions for keyless starting and keyless locking and unlocking can be disrupted by electromagnetic fields and screening.

 Note

Avoid storing the key close to metal objects or electronic apparatus, e.g. phones, tablets, laptops or chargers - preferably no closer than 10-15 cm (4-6 inches).

If interference occurs, use the detachable key blade of the standard key for unlocking. Then place the key in the backup in the tunnel console storage compartment to disable the alarm and be able to start the car.

 Note

When the key is being read by the backup reader, make sure the storage compartment is clear of other nearby car keys, metal objects or electronics (e.g. mobile phones, tablets, laptops or chargers). These objects may interfere with the function.
