63 Locking and unlocking the vehicle
From outside the vehicleThe remote key locks and unlocks all of the
doors and the trunk.
Before the vehicle can be locked from the out-
side with the remote key, the driver's door must
be closed. Any other door/trunk that is open
will be locked and the alarm will be armed.
NOTE
Be sure the remote key is outside of the
vehicle before the other doors/trunk are
closed to help avoid locking the remote
inside the vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional key-
less drive system, all doors/trunk must be
closed before the vehicle can be locked.
The first press on the unlock button unlocks the
driver's door and a second press unlocks the
other doors and the trunk (see also page 54).
This setting can be changed in the menu sys-
tem, see page 128.
If the locks repeatedly do not react when the
unlock button is pressed, it may be necessary
to replace the batteries in the remote, see
page 54. In this case the vehicle can be
unlocked with the detachable key blade. See
page 57.

1. Open the door.
2. Press the lock section of the button.

this way makes it possible to lock the
remote key in the passenger compartment.
To help avoid this, lock the vehicle from the
outside by pressing the lock button on the
remote key.

locking button, be sure that the remote key
is in your possession before closing the
