Keys Central locking systemThe key set1 Master keys with remote control
determine the functions of the Key
Memory, refer to page 63. You can
mark individual keys for subsequent
identification by applying the colored
decals that you received when
accepting delivery of your vehicle
Each master key is equipped with
an extended-life battery. This
battery is recharged in the ignition lock
during normal operation.
For this reason, if you have a master key
that is not in regular use you should use
that keys approx. once a year while
driving for an extended period to charge
the battery, refer also to page 29.<
2 Spare key for storage in a safe place,
such as in your wallet. This key is not
intended for constant use
3 Door and ignition key
The locks for the luggage compart-
ment lid and the glove compartment
cannot be operated with this key Ð
this is useful for valet parking, for
example.
The conceptThe central locking system is ready for
operation whenever the driver's door is
closed. The system engages and
releases the locks on the
>doors
>luggage compartment lid
>fuel filler door
>glove compartment.
The central locking system can be
operated
>from outside via the remote control
as well as via the driver's door lock
>from inside by pressing a button.
Activating it from inside does not lock
the fuel filler door, refer to page 32.
When the system is actuated from the
outside, the anti-theft system is acti-
vated simultaneously. Both the door
locks and release handles remain
locked. The alarm system is also armed
or disarmed.
If locked from the inside, the central
locking system unlocks automatically in
the event of an accident, except on
doors that have been locked individu-
ally using the lock buttons, refer to
page 32. In addition, the hazard
warning flashers and interior lamps
come on.

Opening and closing Ð from the insideYou 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 passenger-
side door, the luggage compartment lid
and the fuel filler door will unlock, too.
If the driver's door is closed, it will be
locked.<
The central locking system can be
locked automatically as soon as
you begin to drive if you desire. This
can be adjusted to be key-specific.<
To unlock and open the doors>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 first pull unlocks the door,
and the second one opens it.
To lock the doors>Either use the central locking button
to lock both doors at once
or
>press down the individual door lock
buttons. The fuel filler door remains
unlocked. To prevent the driver from
being inadvertently locked out of the
vehicle, the driver's door lock button
will not engage as long as the door is
open.
Since children might be able to
lock the doors from the inside, you
should always take the vehicle's keys
with you so that you can open the
vehicle again from the outside at any
time.<
