surfaces*  
It is important that only one touch-sensi-  
tive surface is activated at a time. Gripping  
the handle while touching the lock surface  
risks giving double commands. This means  
that the requested activity (locking/unlock-  
ing) will not be executed, or will be execu-  
ted with a delay.  
With the keyless locking and unlocking func-  
tion, carrying the remote control key in a  
pocket or bag will suffice. The car is locked or  
unlocked via a touch-sensitive surface on the  
door handle.
