To deactivate or stop the alarm: turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to ACCESSORY

or IGNITION ON mode, or unlock the doors or trunk using the electronic key or the wire-

less remote control.

■ Steering lock

The steering wheel locks when the “ENGINE

START STOP” switch is OFF.

green indicator light on the “ENGINE START

STOP” switch will flash and a message will be

shown on the multi-information display. To release

it, gently turn the wheel left or right while pressing

the “ENGINE START STOP” switch.
