Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle even if only for a short time.
In the event of a violent impact, the electric child safety locks are deactivated automatically to allow rear passenger to get out of the vehicle.
If the child safety lock is activated, the warning lamp comes on for approx-imately 10 seconds when switching on the ignition.
