Childproof locks
The childproof lock prevents the rear doors being opened
from the inside. This system prevents minors from opening a
door accidentally while the vehicle is moving.
This function is independent of the electronic opening and locking
systems of the vehicle. It only a ffects the rear doors. It is only
possible to activate it and deactivate it manually, as described
below:
Activating the childproof lock
– Unlock the car and open the door you wish to childproof.
– With the door open, rotate the gr oove in the door using the igni-
tion key, clockwise for the left hand side doors, and anti-clock-
wise for the right hand side doors ⇒ fig. 61, ⇒ fig. 62.
Deactivating the childproof lock
– Unlock the car and open the door for which you wish to deacti- vate the childproof lock.
– With the door open, rotate the gr oove in the door using the igni-
tion key clockwise for the right hand side doors and anti-clock-
wise for the left hand side doors ⇒ fig. 61, ⇒ fig. 62.When the childproof lock is activated, the door can be opened from the
outside only. The childproof lock can be activated and deactivated using the
key in the groove when the door is open, as described above.

– Operate the button once for locking on the remote control, the
indicators will flash.
– Operate the button once for unlocking on the remote control for more than 2 seconds.
– The key will have been programmed and the vehicle will unlock, confirming at the same time the synchronisation.It is possible that the vehicle could no longer be opened and closed with the
remote control if the button is repeatedly pressed outside of the effective
range of the radio frequency remote cont rol. The remote control key will have
to be resynchronised.
Spare remote control keys are available from Authorised Service Centres, they
must be matched to the locking system.
Up to eight remote control keys can be used.Anti-theft alarm system*Description of anti-theft alarm system*
The anti-theft alarm triggers an alarm if unauthorised move-
ments are detected around the vehicle.The anti-theft alarm makes it more difficult to break into the vehicle or steal
it. Audible and visible alarms are triggered if the car is opened using the
mechanical key, or if unauthorised access is gained to the vehicle.
The anti-theft alarm system is automatically switched on when the vehicle is
locked. The system is then primed. When does the system trigger an alarm?
The system triggers an alarm if the following unauthorised actions are carried
out when the car is locked:
•
Mechanical opening of the vehicle with the vehicle key
•
Opening a door
•
Opening the bonnet
•
Opening the tailgate
•
Switching on the ignition
•
Movements in the vehicle
•
Undue manipulation of the alarm
•
Battery handling
The horn is sounded and the turn signals flash for approx. 30 seconds. This
may be repeated up to 10 times depending on the country.
Opening the doors mechanically (emergency opening)
If the remote control function fails, you will have to use the key to unlock the
car. This is done as follows:
•
Unfold the key by pressing the button (arrow).
•
Use the lock on the driver door to unlo ck the vehicle. The anti-theft alarm
system remains active, but an alarm is not triggered immediately.
•
Switch on the ignition within 15 seconds. When the ignition is switched
on, the electronic immobiliser recognise s a valid vehicle key and deactivates
the anti-theft alarm system. If you do not switch on the ignition within 15
seconds, the alarm is triggered.
How is the alarm switched off?
When the vehicle is unlocked via the unlocking button of the remote control
or when the key is inserted in the ignition lock.

Volumetric sensor*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm*, that detects unauthorized vehicle entry using ultra-
sound.The system consists of 3 sensors, 2 emitters and a receptor.

sensor is deactivated.
•
For those vehicles in which a separate sunblind is fitted in the
passenger compartment, the alarm will not function correctly due to inter-
ference with the sensor.Note
•
If the alarm has been triggered by the volumetric sensor, this will be indi-
cated by a flashing of the indicator on the driver's door. This flashing will be
different to that for an activated alarm.

temporarily disconnected, or if the battery is flat. The function then has to be
reactivated.

could not be closed before attempting to close it again. After 10 seconds the
normal automatic function resumes.
•
If the window is still obstructed , the window stops at this point.
•
If there is no obvious reason why the window cannot be closed, try to
close it again within five seconds.
If you wait longer than 10 / 5 seconds, the window will open fully when you
operate one of the buttons. One-touch closing is reactivated.
The one-touch function and roll-back function will not work if there is a
malfunction in the electric windows. Contact an Authorised Service Centre.
