Unlocking the vehicle
Locking the vehicle
Unlocking the boot lid
Folding out/folding up of the key bit Warning light
Unlocking
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been un-
locked.
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
30 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically and the safelock system 1)
or
anti-theft alarm system will be switched on. This function is intended to prevent
the car being unlocked unintentionally.
Locking
The turn signal lights flash once as confirmation that the vehicle has been locked.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the
turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
Checking the battery condition
If the red indicator light
B
» Fig. 13 does not flash when you press a button on
the remote control key, the battery is empty. Replace the battery » page 231.
ABWARNINGIf the car is locked from the outside and the safelock system is switched on,
there must not be any person in the car as it is then not possible to open ei-
ther a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more diffi-
cult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
CAUTION
■ Only operate the remote control when the doors and boot lid are closed and the
vehicle is in your line of sight.■
If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote control
key.
■
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by signal inter-
ference from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same fre-
quency range.
Note
For vehicles with anti-theft alarm the acoustic signals can also be activated/deac-
tivated by locking/unlocking » page 29.
Synchronising the remote control
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 32.
If the vehicle does not unlock when pressing the remote control, the key may not
be synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the remote control key are
actuated a number of times outside of the operative range of the equipment or
the battery in the remote control key was replaced.
Synchronise the key as follows.
›
Press any button on the remote control key.
›
Pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1 mi-
nute.

ture, e.g. when stopping at traffic lights etc.).
› The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.
› 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 ve-
hicle.WARNING■ Doors locked from the inside make it difficult for rescuers to get into the ve-
hicle in an emergency – risk to life!■
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle.

If the safelock system is switched on » page 35, the door opening lever and
the central locking buttons do not operate.

37Unlocking and opening

When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventilation
system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. If the windows are opened, dust
as well as other dirt can get into the vehicle and in addition the wind noise is
more at certain speeds.WARNING■ Ensure that no persons are still left in the vehicle when locking the vehicle.
In an emergency, the windows will no longer be able to be opened from the
inside.■
The system is fitted with a force limiter » page 43. If there is an obstacle,
the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centi-
metres. However, the windows should be closed carefully – risk of injury.
■
It is recommended to deactivate the electrically operated power windows in
the rear doors (safety pushbutton)
S
» Fig. 21 on page 42 when children are
being transported on the rear seats.
CAUTION
■ Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric win-
dows.■
In the event that the windows are frozen, first of all eliminate the
ice » page 191 , Windows and exterior mirrors and only then operate the electrical
power windows. Otherwise, the window sealing and the electrical power window mechanism could be damaged.
■
In the winter, ice accumulating on the surface of the window may cause there
to be more resistance when closing the window. The window will stop and move back several centimetres.
■
It is necessary to deactivate the force limiter to close the window » page 43.
■
Make sure that the windows are closed whenever you leave the locked vehicle.
For the sake of the environment
At high speeds, you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily
high fuel consumption.
Note
The window lift system is equipped with protection against overheating. Repea-
ted opening and closing of the window can cause this mechanism to overheat. If
this happens, it will not be possible to operate the window for a short time. You
will be able to operate the window again as soon as the overheating protection
has cooled down.

Force limit
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 41.
The electrical power window system is fitted with a force limiter. It reduces the
risk of bruises or injuries when closing the windows.
If there is an obstacle, the closing process is stopped and the window goes down
by several centimetres.
If the obstacle prevents the window from being closed during the next 10 sec-
onds, the closing process is interrupted once again and the window goes down by
several centimetres.
If you attempt to close the window again within 10 seconds of the window being moved down for the second time, even though the obstacle was not yet been re-
moved, the closing process is only stopped. During this time it is not possible to
automatically close the window. The force limiter is still switched on.
The force limiter is only switched off if you attempt to close the window again
within the next 10 seconds - the window will now close with full force!
If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force limiter is switched on again.
