The  central  locking  system 
will only work correctly 
when all doors  and the tailgate  are closed  properly. 
The 
vehicle cannot be  locked  with the key if the 
driver  door is open . 
In vehicles  with the Keyless  Access locking and 
starting  system, the 
veh icle can only be locked 
when  the ignition  has been  switched 
off and the 
driver  door is closed . 
If the vehicle  is unlocked  and not used  for a long 
time  (e.g. in  your  own garage)  the 
vehicle battery 
could  discharge 
or the engine  may not start.

A WARNING 
Improper use of the central locking system 
could cause serious injury. 
• The central locking system locks all 
doors. Locking the vehicle from the inside 
may prevent the doors from being opened 
unintentionally and unauthorised persons 
from entering the vehicle . However, locked 
doors can delay assistance to passengers in
side the vehicle in the event of an accident or 
emergency. 
• Never  leave children or people requiring 
assistance  alone in the  vehicle. All doors can 
be 
locked from  the inside using the  central 
locking button.  This may mean that people 
lock themselves in the vehicle.  People locked 
in the vehicle may be subjected to very high 
or very low temperatures. 
• Depending  on the time of year, locked ve
hicles can be subjected to very high or very 
low temperatures.  This can cause serious in
juries and  illness or fatalities, especially for 
small children. 
• Never  leave anyone  inside a locked vehi
cle. People in the vehicle could become trap
ped in an emergency  and may not be able to 
get themselves to safety.
