Unlocking all doors and the boot lid

– Press button ⇒page 43, fig. 24 . If the boot lid has been
set to the permanent locking mode, it is then not unlocked
⇒ page 45 when the button is pressed.
Unlocking fuel filler flap
– Pull the switch ⇒page 43, fig. 25 .
Unlocking the boot lid
– Pull the switch ⇒page 43, fig. 25 .
Blocking boot lid remote release button

– Turn the master key in the lock in direction of arrow ⇒page 43, fig. 25 .
– The boot lid is unlocked by turning the key in the opposite direction of the arrow.
Lock the boot lid from outside the vehicle ⇒page 45.
The following applies if you have locked your vehicle using the central
locking system ⇒page 43, fig. 24 :
•It is not possible to open the doors or the boot lid from the outside
(safety feature, e.g. when stopping at traffic lights etc.).
•You can unlock the doors individually from the inside and open them
by pulling the door opening lever.
•Once the driver door is opened it cannot be locked again (after oper-
ating the lock function in the button for the central locking switch) in order to avoid inadvertently being locked out of the vehicle. You then have to
lock a door separately after closing it.
•In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the
locked doors are automatically unlocked from the inside in order to enable
rescuers to gain access to the vehicle.
WARNING
The central locking system also operates if the ignition is switched
off. All the doors and the boot lid are locked. Children should never
be left unattended in the vehicle since it is difficult to provide
assistance from the outside when the doors are locked. Locked
doors make it difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an
emergency - hazard!
Note
The door opening lever and the button for the central locking system do
not operate if the safe securing system is activated.

Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
– Press the fuel tank flap closed.
The correct grade of fuel for your vehicle as well as the tyre size and infla-
tion pressures are stated on a sticker affixed to the inside of the fuel filler
flap. Further information on fuel ⇒page 214, “Fuel”.
The fuel tank has a capacity of about 62 litres.
WARNING
Pay attention to any legal requirements if you do carry a spare
canister in the vehicle. We do not recommend carrying any fuel
canisters in your vehicle for safety reasons. The canister can be
damaged in the event of an accident and fuel may leak out.
Caution
•Remove any fuel which has spilled onto the paintwork of your vehicle
immediately. This particularly applies to biodiesel - risk of paint damage!
•Vehicles fitted with catalytic converter should never be allowed to let
the fuel tank to run completely empty. An irregular supply of fuel to the
engine can result in misfiring and unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust
system, which may result in overheating and damage to the catalytic
converter.
For the sake of the environment
The fuel tank is full just as soon as the pump nozzle switches off for the
first time, provided the nozzle has been operated properly. You should not
continue refuelling - otherwise the expansion chamber in the fuel tank will
also be filled with fuel. Fuel might flow out of the tank when it heats up.
Emergency release of fuel filler flap
If the electric lock is faulty, you can also unlock the fuel filler flap
manually.
– Open the boot lid/luggage compartment door.
– Unscrew the clip attaching the right-hand side trim panel and
pull the trim panel off the body.
– Pull on the loop in direction of arrow in order to unlock the fuel filler flap ⇒fig. 171 .
WARNING
When unlocking the fuel filler flap manually, pay attention to sharp
edges of the body - risk of injury!
