If the doors are locked while driving, this may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the car in the event of an
accident. (Also see information on "Child safety locks").
Central locking button
Central locking button
The central locking button (1) can be used to lock or unlock all doors and trunk/tailgate.
Lock: Press the lower side of the button.
Unlock: Press the upper side of the button.
Note: As long as ignition is on, you can always lock or unlock with the central locking button.
With ignition off and 25 seconds after having locked all doors and trunk/tailgate with the key or with the remote
control, the central locking button will not lock or unlock the car any more.
Note: If the key is in the ignition switch and you close the driver's door, the driver's door will be immediately
unlocked again in order to prevent accidentally locking the car with the keys left inside the car.
pg. 40 Remote keyless entry system
Remote keyless entry system
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a radio frequency which will allow
"keyless" entry into the passenger compartment or the trunk. You will be supplied with two coded key ring
transmitters, which will enable you to lock/unlock all doors and the trunk/tailgate and fuel filler door from a distance
of 10-15 feet (3-5 meters).
The Remote also activates/deactivates the alarm system that comes standard with this car.
The car can also be locked/unlocked with the key.
Using the remote control
· Press the LOCK button once to lock all doors and trunk/tailgate.
· Press the UNLOCK button once to unlock the driver's door and the fuel filler door only. Press this button again
(within 10 seconds) to unlock other doors, trunk/tailgate.
· Press the OPEN trunk/tailgate button to unlock the tailgate/trunk.
