So long as the child safety lock is switched
on it is not possible to open the door from
the inside with the door opening lever. In th
is case the door can be opened only from
the outside.Central locking system*DescriptionUnlocking or locking the vehicle causes
all doors to be unlocked or locked at the same
time by the central locking system. The boot lid is unlocked when opening. It can be opened by pressing the hand grip above the licence plate. Operation of the central locking system is possible:
from the outside using the vehicle key
page 38;

using the buttons for the
central locking system
page 39;

by using the remote control
page 41.
Indicator light in the driver's door After locking the vehicle the indicator light fl
ashes for 2 seconds fast, then more slowly.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system
page 38 is not operating, the
indicator light in the driver door flashes for
about 2 seconds fast, goes out and starts to
flash slowly after about 30 seconds.
If the indicator light first of all flashes fast for about 2 seconds, afterwards lights up for about 30 seconds and then flashes slowly, there is a fault in the system of the central locking or the interior monitor*
page 43. Visit a specialist garage to obtain assist-
ance. Convenience operation of the windows One can open and close the electrically
powered windows when unlocking and
locking the vehicle
page 45.
Opening a single door* This function makes it possible to only unlock the driver's door. The other doors remain locked and are only unlocked when
the command is repeated. The single door
opening function can be first activated by recoding the control unit of the central locking system. This work is undertaken by a specialist garage which can give you more information. Automatic locking* All the doors and the boot lid are locked au
tomatically once the car reaches a speed of
about 15 km/h. If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car is
then automatically unlocked again. The driver
can also unlock the vehicle
by pressing the button
 of the central locking system.
If you wish, you can have a specialist gara
ge activate the automatic locking function.
WARNING
Locking the doors prevents involuntary op
ening in an exceptional situation (an
accident). Locked doors prevent unwanted entry into the vehicle from outside, for example at road crossings. Locked do
ors do, however, make it more difficult
for rescuers to get into the vehicle
in an emergency - danger to life!
Note

In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors are
automatically unlocked in order to enable
rescuers to gain access to the vehicle.

Only the front door which is fitted with
a locking cylinder can be unlocked and
locked using the key if the central locking sy
stem fails. You can operate the rear doors
manually.
