CLK55 Softop Remote open / close not working

Can anybody suggest why my softop will not open or close using either of my remote keys. The roof opens and closes perfectly unsing the interior switch. Car is November 2003 first registered, 209 model. Only picked the car up yesterday, but I don't think I'm missing anything obvoius.
Any helpful suggesions / pointers wouldbe much appreciated.

Try Holding down the button and pointed the key right up to the driver door handle.

Thanks Klinh - your suggestion worked fine. Does the function only operate on the driver's door? - the handbook simply refers to "the door handle" and I had previously been trying the passenger door!
Thanks again, Mick Hughes

If you look at the passenger side door, there's no little glass window like the driver side to receive signal from the remote transmitter. So it only work on the driver.
