For anti-theft security, only the driver's door is fitted with a lock cylinder.
Safety system “Safe”
This is an anti-theft device consisting of a double lock for the
door locks and a deactivation function for the boot in order to
make forced entry more difficult.Activation
The “safe” system is activated when the vehicle is locked using the key or the
remote control.
To activate this system with the key, rotate the key once in the door lock
cylinder in the locking direction.
To activate the system using the remote control, press the lock button on the
remote once.
When this system is activated, it is no t possible to open the doors normally,
from the outside or the inside. The boot/tailgate may not be opened. The
central locking button does not work.
Voluntary deactivation
The “Safe” system can be deactivated voluntarily by the user.
This is done by locking two times in quick succession (in under 2 seconds).
This double locking can be executed using the key or the remote control.
Using the key, rotate the lock cylinder twice in the locking direction.
To activate the system using the remote control, press the lock button on the
remote twice.

Tips and Maintenance
Te c h n i c a l D a t a
When the “Safe” system is deactivated, the doors are locked using the simple
locking system, meaning that
they may be opened from the interior but not
from the exterior.
Involuntary deactivation
The methods described for deactivation of the “Safe” system may be
executed involuntarily (for example, if we press the button because we
want to lock the vehicle, and it locks as a result, however, we are not sure that
it is locked and we press the button once more within 2 seconds, we will have
deactivated the “Safe” system).
Deactivation when opening
To deactivate the system on opening, see “Selective unlocking system*”
“Safe” status
On the front left hand side door, there is a light indicator visible from the
outside of the vehicle that indicates the “Safe” system status.
We can see that the “Safe” system is activated, by the flashing of the light
indicator . The indicator will flash on all vehicles, whether they are fitted with
an alarm or not, and until the vehicle is unlocked.
We can see that the “Safe” system is deactivated, when the light indicator
flashes about seven times and turns off. If the vehicle is not fitted with an
alarm then it remains off. If the vehicle is fitted with an alarm, once 28
seconds have passed since the indicator is switched off, it will start to flash
again and continue until the vehicle is unlocked once more.
Remember:
Safe activated with or without alarm: Continuous flashing of the indicator.
Safe deactivated without alarm: The indicator flashes about seven times and
turns off.
Safe deactivated with alarm: The indicator flashes seven times, turns off and
then continues to flash after 28 seconds.
WARNING
No one should remain in the vehicle if the “Safe” deadlock mechanism has
been activated. It is not possible to open the doors from the inside or the
outside and this would make any outside intervention difficult in case of
emergency. Danger of death. People could become trapped inside in an
emergency.Selective unlocking system*
This system allows for unlocking only the driver's door, or all
the vehicle.Driver's door unlock button
This is done by a simple unlocking (o nce). This can be done with the key or
the remote control.
With the key, rotate the key once in the lock cylinder in the unlock direction.
The driver's door will be released from the “Safe” system, unlocked and may
be opened. Once the door is opened, 15 seconds remain for turning on the
ignition, in which moment, the “Safe” system will be deactivated on the
remaining doors and the light indicator wi ll be turned off. For vehicles fitted
with an alarm, this system is deactivated.
Using the remote control, press the unlock button on the remote once. The
“Safe” system is deactivated for all the vehicle, only the driver's door is
unlocked for opening, the alarm is tu rned off as is the light indicator.
Unlocking all doors and the boot
So that all the doors and the boot ca n be opened, the unlock button on
the remote must be pressed twice.
The button must be pressed twice in under 2 seconds and this will deactivate
the “Safe” system for all the vehicle, all doors will be unlocked and the boot

94will be activated. The indicator will be turned off as will be the alarm for those
vehicles fitted with one.
Unlocking the boot
See ⇒ page 99 and ⇒ page 104.Locking system for involuntary unlocking
This is an anti-theft system and will avoid situations where
the vehicle is opened unintentionallyThe vehicle will be re-locked automatically, if it is unlocked and neither the
boot or any of the doors are opened within 30 seconds. This function
prevents the vehicle from remaining unlocked if the unlocking button is
pressed by mistake.Automatic speed dependent locking and unlocking system*
This is a safety system to prevent access to the vehicle from
the exterior when the vehicle is in transit (for example, when
stopped at a traffic light).Locking
The doors and the boot are automatically locked when vehicle speed exceeds
15 km/h.
If the vehicle is stopped and one of the doors is opened, when the vehicle
moves off again and exceeds a speed of 15 km/h the unlocked door(s) will be
locked once more. Unlocking
The driver's door automatically unlocks when the key is removed from the
ignition.
Each door may be unlocked and opened
from the interior (for example when
a passenger gets out). For this, simply operate the lever on the inside of the
door.
WARNING
When the vehicle is in motion, the internal door release levers should not
be operated, this could cause a door to open.Emergency unlocking systemThe entire vehicle is unlocked if the airbags are triggered during an accident,
except for the boot. It is possible to lock the vehicle from inside using the
central locking, after tu rning the ignition off and back on again.
If the doors must be locked from the outside, see “Manually locking the
doors” .
