INFORMATION
Customers of vehicles equipped with Comfort Access may complain that their radio stays on (terminal/KL-R) after switching off the ignition (pressing the START/STOP button and no remote key in the CAS).
This is normal operation of the Comfort Access feature. Refer to the Owner's Manual (Radio readiness section)
The following systems are still active:
^ The audio system
^ The time and outside temperature is displayed in the instrument cluster
^ The screen, on vehicles equipped with CID (Central Information Display)
KL-R can be turned off by:
^ Locking the vehicle
^ Pressing the START/STOP button a second time
^ Letting vehicle go to sleep (approx. 16 minutes)
NOTE:
When the remote key was inserted in the ignition lock and removed after ignition off KL-R will switch off immediately; i.e. operated as a vehicle without Comfort Access.
