Manual operation

In the event of an electrical malfunction, you can
lock and unlock the driver's door by turning the
integrated key to the corresponding limit posi-
tions in the door lock.

Opening and closing:

From inside

This button serves to unlock or lock doors and
the trunk lid, but does not activate the anti-theft
system. The fuel filler flap remains unlocked.

Automatic locking

You can also set the situations in which the car
locks:

1.

"Settings"

2.

"Door locks"

3.

Select the desired function:

>

"Lock if no door is opened"
The central locking system locks after a
short time if no door has been opened.

>

"Lock after start. to drive"
The central locking system locks the
vehicle as soon as you start to drive.

The function is switched on and is stored

for the remote control currently in use.

Unlocking and opening doors

>

Either unlock the doors together using the
button for the central locking system and
then pull the door handle above the armrest
or

>

pull on the door handle of each door twice:
the first time unlocks the door, the second
time opens it.

Locking

>

Use the central locking button to lock all of
the doors simultaneously, or

>

press down the safety lock button of a door.
To prevent you from being locked out, the
open driver's door cannot be locked using
the lock button.

Persons or animals in a parked vehicle
could lock the doors from the inside. You

should therefore take the remote control with
you when you leave the vehicle so that the latter
can be opened from outside.
