automatic convertible top via the door lock.

>

To open:
With the door closed, hold the key in the
Unlock position

>

To close:
With the door closed, hold the key in the
Lock position.

Watch the closing process to ensure that
no one is trapped. Releasing the key

<

Manual operation

If there is an electrical malfunction, you can
unlock or lock the driver's door by turning the
key in the lock all the way to the left or right.

Opening and closing:

from inside

You can use this button to control the central
locking system whenever the doors are closed.
The doors and luggage compartment lid are
unlocked or locked only. The anti-theft system
is not activated.
If only the driver's door was unlocked from the
outside and you press the button, then, with the
driver's door still open, the luggage compart-
ment lid and the fuel filler door will unlock, too. If
the driver's door is closed, it will be locked.

If you desire, the central locking system
can be activated automatically as soon as

you begin to drive. This can be adjusted to be
key-specific.

<

To unlock and open

>

Either unlock the doors together with the
button for the central locking system and
then pull each of the release handles above
the armrests
or

>

pull the release handle for each door twice:
the initial pull unlocks the door, and the sec-
ond one opens it.

To lock

>

Either use the central locking button to lock
both doors at once or

>

press the individual door lock buttons
down.

To prevent the driver from being inad-
vertently locked out of the vehicle, the

driver's door lock button will not engage as
long as the door is open.

<

Since persons or animals in the vehicle
could lock the doors from the inside,

always take the vehicle keys with you so that
the vehicle can be opened again from the out-
side at any time.

<

Luggage compartment lid

To open from the outside

Turn the master key to the left as far as it will go.
The luggage compartment lid will open slightly.
If the alarm system is armed, opening the lug-
gage compartment with the key will trigger an
alarm; refer also to page
