Resyncing
The key fobs can loose their synchronisation with the car, after the battery has been depleted for too long. When this happens, you will not be able to remotely lock or unlock the car.
The following steps will resync a key fob to the car:
- Sit in the driver seat
- Put the desynced key in the ignition
- Press either the lock or unlock button momentarily twice
- Start the car within 30 seconds of step 3
The key should now be able to lock and unlock the car remotely again.
Global/Selective Central Locking
When the key is setup for Global Central Locking, all doors, rear liftgate and fuel door will be opened all together in a single unlock action. If its set to Selective, it will only open the driver door, and after a second unlock action, the passenger door, rear liftgate, and fuel door will open.
