Unlocking front doors
Both front doors can be unlocked by using the starting (ignition) key. Turning the key ¼ turn counter-
clock wise (right door : clockwise) lifts the lock buttons on the window ledge and the door can be
opened by pulling the handle. To open a door from inside, the lock button must first be pulled up.
Central lock
The vehicle is equipped with a central lock system. This means the lock on the driver's door
automatically controls the locks on the other doors (including the trunk on Sedan models and the tailgate
on the wagon model).
Locking doors
Both front doors can be locked by using the key. Turning the key ¼ turn clockwise (left door) or counter-
clockwise (right door) locks the door.
NOTE: The driver's door can only be locked using the
key.
The lock buttons should not be in the down (locked) position during driving. In case of an accident, this
may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the vehicle.
