Unlocking and locking
40WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as it is then not possible to
open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more
difficult for rescuers to get into th e vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note

Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and boot lid are closed and
you have visual contact with the vehicle.

Once in the car, you must not press the lock button
 of the radio remote control
before inserting the key into the ignition lock in order to avoid the car being inadvert-
ently locked and the alarm system* being switched on. Should this happen, press the
unlock button
 of the radio remote control.
Synchronisation of the remote controlIf the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuatin g the remote control system then it is
possible that the code in the key and the co ntrol unit in the vehicle are no longer
synchronised. This can occur when the butt ons on the radio-operated key are actu-
ated a number of times outside of the operative range of the equipment or the battery
on the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
Press any button on the remote control.

pressing of the button means that the d oor will unlock with the key within 1
minute.
Anti-theft alarm system*DescriptionThe anti-theft alarm system increases the leve l of protection against people seeking to
break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warning signals if an
attempt is made to break into the vehicle. Optical and acoustic signals alert if an alarm
has been triggered (the turn signal lights
flash and the signal horn honks).
How is the alarm system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated au tomatically when the vehicle is locked with
the key on the driver's door or by using th e radio remote control. It is activated 30
seconds after locking the door.
How is the alarm system deactivated?
The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated if the vehicle is unlocked by only using the
radio remote control. The anti-theft alarm system is reactivated if the vehicle is not
opened within 30 seconds after transmitting the radio signal.
Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the ke y into the driver door you then have to
insert the key into the ignition lock and sw itch the ignition on within 15 seconds after
unlocking the door in order to deactivate the anti-theft alarm system. The alarm will
be triggered if you do not switch on the ignition within 15 seconds.
When is the alarm triggered?
The following security areas of the locked vehicle are monitored:

Bonnet,

Boot lid,

Doors,

Ignition lock,

Vehicle interior
4),

A drop in voltage of the on-board power supply.
An alarm is immediately triggered if either of the two battery terminals is disconnected
while the anti-theft alarm system is activated.
Deactivation of interior monitor
The process of switching off and switching on the interior monitoring system is the
same as for switching off and switching on the safe securing system page 36.
4)The alarm will be triggered through movement of occupants within the interior of the vehicle or
an attempt to steal the radio. The rear part of the interior of the vehicle is not fully monitored
under certain circumstances.
