> "Lock after driving"
The central locking system automati-
cally locks the vehicle as soon as you
start to drive.
7. Press the controller.
The setting is selected.
The setting is stored for the remote control cur-
rently in use.
Unlocking and opening doors
> Either unlock both doors at the same time
with the button for the central locking sys-
tem and then pull the door handle above the
armrest or
> pull the door handle for each door twice: the
first pull unlocks the door, and the second
one opens it.
Locking doors
> Use the central locking button to lock both
of the doors simultaneously, or
> Press down the lock button of a door.
To prevent you from being locked out, the
open driver's door cannot be locked using
the lock button.
Because any persons or animals left unat-
tended in a parked vehicle could lock the
doors from the inside, you should always keep
the remote control with you when you leave the
vehicle; this precaution ensures that you will
remain able to unlock the vehicle from the out-
side at all times.

Hotel function
The hotel function locks the compartment in
the front center console and the luggage com-
partment lid separately and disconnects them
from the central locking system. If you hand
over the remote control without the integrated
key, refer to page
28 , e.g. at a hotel, then this
prevents access to the luggage compartment
and to the compartment in the front center con-
sole.
Turn the key to the right, refer to illustration,
until the key slot points in the direction of travel
and then remove:
The hotel function is activated after subsequent
locking or unlocking of the vehicle. The system
locks the luggage compartment lid and the
compartment in the front center console and
disconnects them from the central locking sys-
tem.
Manual release
In order to manually unlock the compartment in
the front center console in the event of an elec-
trical malfunction, turn the key all the way to the
right until it reaches the stop.
If unlocking was manual, return the lock to
the home position, i.e. all the way back to
the left, before reactivating the hotel function. <
Doors
Automatic soft closing*
To close the doors, merely press it closed gen-
tly. The closing process will then be carried out
automatically.
Make sure that the closing path of the
doors is clear; as otherwise injuries may
result. <
Luggage compartment lid
During opening, the luggage compart-
ment lid pivots back and up. Make sure
there is sufficient clearance. <
