following:
- Remote control key¢ page 28
- Sensors in the door handles* ¢ page 28
- Lock on driver's door ¢ page 30
- Interior central locking switch ¢ page 29
Automatic locking function (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock function locks the doors and the
boot lid when the vehicle exceeds a speed of
about 15 km/h.
The vehicle is unlocked again immediately when
the unlock button in the central locking switch is
pressed or one of the inside door handles is
pulled. The Auto Lock function can be switched
on and off on the infotainment system
¢page 30.
In the event of an accident in which the airbags
inflate, the doors will be automatically unlocked
to facilitate access and assistance.
Unlocking one side of the vehicle only
When you lock the vehicle, the central locking
system will lock the doors and the boot lid. When
you unlock the vehicle, the central locking system
will unlock either the driver's door only, or all the
locks on the vehicle, depending on the setting
you have selected on the infotainment system
¢page 30.
Turn signals
The turn signals will flash twice when the vehicle
is unlocked and once when the vehicle is locked.
If the turn signals do not flash, one of the doors,
the boot lid or the bonnet is still open or the igni
tion is still on.

ing locked out of the vehicle in the following sit
uations: Doors

the vehicle by pressing the� button on the re
mote control key or touching the locking sen
sor* on one of the doors.
- When one of the doors is open, it cannot be
locked together with the other doors by press
ing the� button in the central locking switch

- On vehicles with convenience key*, the boot lid
will be released again automatically if the key
that was last in use is left inside the boot when

will flash four times.
To prevent yourself from being locked out, do not
lock the vehicle with the remote control key/con
venience key* until all of the doors and the boot
lid are closed.
(D Note

cle unattended. Even a locked vehicle is not
a safe.

driver's window sill flashes. If the LED is still
on about 30 seconds after the vehicle is
locked, the central locking system is not
working properly. You should have the mal
function repaired by a qualified workshop.
