INDEX
The LED comes on in the following cases:
❒after each door lock command generated by the
button D or by button
Áin the dashboard;
❒when the instrument panel is activated;
❒upon opening of one of the front doors;
❒when the door is locked at 20 km/h (if activated
from the menu).
The lock is turned off when one of the load
compartment doors is opened or on a door release
request (load compartment or centralised) or an
unlocking request from the remote control/door catch.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒locking/unlocking buttons A-B fig. 112;
thereby preventing the opening of the doors from inside
the passenger compartment if there has been a break-in
attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers the best possible
protection against break in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left
unattended.
Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Therefore, before engaging
the system check that there is no one left inside.
If the remote control battery is flat, the system
can only be disengaged by using the metal insert
in either of the door locks as described
previously: in this case the device only remains
on for the rear doors.
WARNING
Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically activated on every
door when pressing the remote control button
Ábriefly
twice, fig. 109.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the
direction indicators and the flashing of the LED on
button A-fig. 112 on the dashboard.
If one of the doors is not perfectly shut, the dead lock
device will not be activated, thus preventing a person
getting into the car through the open door and, on
shutting it, remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.
