SAFE LOCK DEVICE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of the
interior door handles and the door locking/unlocking
button.
It thereby prevents the opening of the doors from
inside the passenger compartment, serving as an

The device is enabled on all the doors by quickly
double-pressing the
button on the key.
The direction indicators flash 3 times and the LED
above the
fig. 17 button flashes to indicate that
the device has been activated. If one or more of the
doors are not closed correctly, the device will not
activate, thus preventing a person from getting stuck
inside the passenger compartment by entering the
car through, and then closing, the open door.Deactivating the device
The device deactivates automatically:
❒unlocking the doors (pressing button
on the key
with remote control);
❒by turning the ignition key to the MAR position.
WARNING
Once the safe lock system is engaged, it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the car.Therefore, before getting out of
the car check that there is no-one left on board.
