To prevent the driver from being inadvertently
locked out of the vehicle, the lock button on the
driver's door automatically extends again after a
brief period if the door remains open.
Because any persons or animals left unat-
tended in a parked vehicle could lock the
doors from the inside, you should always keep
the remote control with you; this precaution
ensures that you will remain able to unlock the
vehicle from the outside at all times.<
Doors
Automatic soft closing*
Apply gentle pressure to the door to close it.
The closing process will then be carried out
automatically.
To avoid injuries, ensure that the door's
travel path is completely free and clear
before closing.<
Luggage compartment lid
Opening from outside
Press the button on the luggage compartment
lid or the button on the remote control for
approx. 1 second: the luggage compartment lid
opens.
During opening, the luggage compart-
ment lid pivots back and up. Ensure that
adequate clearance is available before open-
ing.<
The lock
All of the vehicle's keys fit the luggage compart-
ment lid lock located in the license plate recess.
Opening separately
Insert the key in the luggage compartment lid's
lock and turn it all the way to the right – the lid
opens.
To avoid being locked out inadvertently,
avoid setting the remote control down in
the luggage compartment. The luggage com-
partment is locked again as soon as you close
the lid.
If you use the lock to unlock the luggage com-
partment lid while the alarm system is armed,
the alarm will be triggered. To avoid this, you
should unlock the vehicle first. If the alarm has
been triggered accidentally, switch off the
alarm, refer to page37.<

>by switching on
the hazard warning flashers
>by flashing the high beams
Arming and disarming alarm system
When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either with
the remote control or at the door lock, the alarm
system is armed or disarmed at the same time.
When the alarm system is armed, you can also
open the luggage compartment lid with the button on the remote control, refer to
page33. When the luggage compartment lid is
closed, it is relocked and monitored again.
Unlocking via the door lock will trigger the
alarm on some national-market versions.

is locked: the doors or luggage compart-
ment lid are not properly closed. Even if you
do not close the door involved, the system
begins to monitor the remaining areas, and
the indicator lamp flashes continuously
after 10 seconds. However, the interior
motion sensor is not activated.
>After the vehicle is unlocked, the indicator
lamp goes out: no manipulation or
attempted intrusions have been detected in
the period since the system was armed.
>After the vehicle is unlocked, the indicator
lamp flashes until the remote control is
inserted into the ignition lock, but for no
more than roughly 5 minutes: an attempted
entry has been detected in the period since
the system was armed.

Tilt alarm sensor
The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The alarm
system reacts, e.g. in case of an attempted
wheel theft or towing.
Interior motion sensor
In order for the interior motion sensor to func-
tion properly, the windows and glass sunroof
must be completely closed.
Avoiding unintentional alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor
may be switched off at the same time. This pre-
vents unintentional alarms, e.g. in the following
situations:
>In duplex garages
>When transporting on car-carrying trains
>When animals are to remain in the vehicle
Switching off tilt alarm sensor and
interior motion sensor
Press the button on the remote control
again as soon as the vehicle is locked.
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and then
flashes continuously. The tilt alarm sensor and
the interior motion sensor are switched off until
the next time the vehicle is unlocked and subse-
quently locked again.
Comfort Access*
With Comfort Access, you can have access to
your vehicle without having to hold the remote
control in your hand. It is sufficient to carry the
remote control on your person, e.g. in a jacket
pocket. The vehicle automatically detects the
associated remote control in the immediate
vicinity or in the passenger compartment.
Comfort Access supports the following func-
tions:
>Locking/unlocking the vehicle
>Unlocking the luggage compartment lid
separately
>Starting the engine
Functional requirements
>The vehicle can only be locked if the remote
control is outside the vehicle.
>The next unlocking and locking cycle is not

>The engine can only be started if the remote
control is inside the vehicle.

tions for opening and closing, starting on
page32.

roof, then this indicates that the system is
checking whether a remote control is located in
the vehicle. Please repeat opening or closing if
necessary.<

Starting engine
You can start the engine or switch on the igni-
tion, as long as a remote control is in the pas-
senger compartment. The remote does not
have to be inserted into the ignition lock, refer to
page57.

remote control or by using a key to unlock or
lock your vehicle at one of the doors. To start
the engine after this, insert the remote control
into the ignition lock.

Windows
To prevent bodily injuries, watch the win-
dow as it closes. Always take along the
remote control when you leave the vehicle; oth-
erwise, children could, for example, operate the
windows and injure themselves.<

Opening and closing

Opening and closing windows
With the ignition lock in radio ready state or
higher, refer to page57:
>Press the switch down to the resistance
point:
The window continues to open as long as
you continue to hold the switch.
>Briefly press the switch beyond the resis-
tance point:
The window opens automatically. Briefly
press the switch again to stop the opening
movement.
You can close the windows in the same manner
by pulling the switch.
After switching off ignition
You can still operate the power windows:
>For an extended period in radio ready state.
>For approx. 1 minute when the ignition is
switched off or with the remote control dis-
engaged.
To open, press the switch beyond the resis-
tance point.
Pinch protection system
If the force rises beyond a predefined threshold
while a window is being closed, then the system
will immediately stop the closing movement
and open the window again slightly.
Despite the presence of the pinch protec-
tion system, make sure to inspect the
window's travel path prior to closing it, as the
safety system might fail to detect certain kinds
of obstructions, such as very thin objects, and
the window would continue closing.
The protection provided by the pinch protec-tion system is limited when the switch is pulled
beyond the resistance point and held. Under
these circumstances, if the closing force
exceeds a defined threshold, then the window
opens only slightly.
If you pull the switch again beyond the resis-
tance point and hold it in position, within a
period of approx. 4 seconds, the pinch protec-
tion system will be deactivated.
Do not install any accessories in the range of
movement of the windows; otherwise, the pinch
protection system will be impaired.<
When you close the windows they will
slow down as they approach the end of
their travel; this is to allow the pinch protection
system to respond more precisely to any
obstructions encountered in this critical
range.<
Safety switch
With the safety switch, you can prevent the rear
windows from being opened or closed via the
switches in the rear passenger area, by chil-
dren, for example.
The same is true for:
>the adjustment of the electrical rear seats,
refer to page45
>the adjustment of the electrical head
restraints in the rear, refer to page47
>the operation of the roller sun blind from the
rear, refer to page112
The LED lights up when this safety feature is
activated.
Press the safety switch when children
ride in the rear; otherwise, unsupervised
closing of the windows could lead to injuries.<
