side, the door locks will automatically lock.
The warning lamp on the driver door will
flash quickly for about 2 seconds and then at
a slower rate. It is not possible to open any of
the doors from the inside or outside using
the handle. This limits the possibility of in-
truders getting into the vehicle.
The Safe lock can be deactivated by pressing
the lock button twice in less than 2 seconds.
If Safe lock is out of service, the control lamp
on the driver door will flash quickly for about
2 seconds before switching off for 30 sec-

The Safe lock is re-activated on unlocking
and locking the vehicle again.
If the vehicle is locked and the Safe lock is
deactivated, the vehicle can be opened from
inside by pulling on the door handle. WARNING
Do not leave people or animals in locked ve-

sensor surfaces to be touched on the door
handles ››› Fig. 123.
General information
If a valid key is located in the proximity of the
car ››› Fig. 122, the Keyless Access lock and
ignition system gives the key entry as soon
as one of the sensor surfaces on the door
handles is touched or the push button on the
boot hatch is operated. The following fea-
tures are then available without having to
use the vehicle key actively:
● Keyless-Entry: unlocking of the vehicle with
the handle
s on the four doors or the button
located on the boot hatch.
● Keyless-Go: engine ignition and driving. For
this t
o occur, there has to be a valid key in-
side the vehicle and the ››› page 151.
● Keyless-Exit: unlocking of the vehicle with
one of the four door h
andle.
The central locking and locking systems oper-
ate in the same way as a normal locking and
unlocking system. Only the controls change.
Unlocking the vehicle is confirmed with a
double flash of the indicator lights; locking
by a single flash.
The vehicle will lock again after a few sec-
onds if you unlock the vehicle but fail to open
any door or boot hatch. Unlocking and opening the doors (Keyless-

Opening and closing
Unlocking and locking the boot hatch
When the v
ehic
le is locked, the hatch auto-
matically unlocks on opening if ››› Fig. 122
there is a valid vehicle key in the proximity.
Open or close the hatch normally
››› page 113.
After closing, the hatch locks automatically.
In the following instances, the rear lid does
not lock automatically after closing:
● If the entire vehicle is unlocked.
● If the key used last is inside the vehicle. All
vehicl
e indicator lights flash four times. The
vehicle will lock again after a few seconds if
no door or boot hatch are opened.
Locking the vehicle with a second key
If there is a vehicle key inside the vehicle and
it is locked from the outside with a second
vehicle key, the key inside the vehicle is
blocked for engine ignition ››› page 149. In
order to enable engine ignition, the button on the key inside the vehicle needs to be

s

sed ››› page 104.
Automatically disabling sensors
If the vehicle is not locked or unlocked for a
long period of time, the proximity sensor on
the passenger door is automatically disa-
bled.
If the exterior sensor on the door handle is
often activated unusually with the vehicle locked (e.g. by the branches of a bush rub-
bing ag

ainst it), all proximity sensors are dis-
abled for a time. If this only happens with the
exterior sensor on the driver's door, only this
sensor is disabled.
Sensors will again be enabled:
● After a time.
● OR: if the vehicle is unlocked with the but-
ton  on the key.
● OR: if the boot is opened.

venience functions
To close all electric windows, the sun roof
and electric tilting panoramic roof with the
convenience feature, keep your finger for a
few seconds on the lock sensor surface
››› Fig. 123 B located on the exterior part of
the driv er or p
a

ssenger door handle until the
windows and roof close.
Opening the doors by touching the sensor
surface on the handle takes place in accord-
ance with the settings activated on the menu
Configuration - Convenience . CAUTION
The sensor surfaces on the door handles
cou l

d engage if hit with a water jet or high
pressure steam if there is a valid vehicle key
in the nearby area. If at least one of the win-
dows is open and the sensor surface B on
one of the h andl

e permanently activates, all windows will close. If the water jet or steam
is
briefly

moved away from the sensor sur-
face A on one of the handles and then poin-
ted at it

again, all the windows will probably
open ››› page 111, Convenience functions. Note
● If the v

ehicle battery has little or no charge,
or the vehicle key battery is almost or entire-
ly out of charge, it is likely that the vehicle
will not be able to be lock or unlocked with
the Keyless Access system. The vehicle can
be unlocked or locked manually
›››  page 9.
● If there is no valid key inside the vehicle or
the syst
em fails to detect one, a warning will
display on the dash panel screen. This could
happen if any other radio frequency signal in-
terferes with the key signal (e.g. from a mo-
bile device accessory) or if the key is covered
by another object (e.g. an aluminium case).
● If the sensors are very dirty, e.g. have a lay-
er of sa
lt, how the sensors on the door han-
dles operate may be affected. If this is the
case, wash the vehicle ››› page 193.
● If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic
gearbo
x, it may only be locked in the gear
stick is in position P. 111

Operation
If an obstacle is present, the closing mecha-
ni sm w
i
ll stop and the window will roll back a
few centimetres.
If an obstacle prevents closing for the next
10 seconds, the closing mechanism will once
again stop and the window will roll back an-
other few centimetres.
If in the next 10 seconds you attempt to close
the window after it has rolled back the sec-
ond time, only the closing mechanism will be
stopped even if the obstacle is still present.
The roll-back function is still connected.
The roll-back function will only be disconnec-
ted if you once again attempt to close the
window in the following 10 seconds. In this
case, the window will close at full force .
If you wait for a further 10 seconds, the roll-
back function will be once again connected. Lights and visibility

The location of the controls of right-hand
drive cars differs slightly from the location
shown here ››› Fig. 129 ››› page 117. Howev-
er, the symbols indicating the respective po-
sitions of the controls remain the same. WARNING
Never drive with only the side lights on! The
side light s

are not bright enough to illumi-
nate the road ahead and to ensure that other
road users are able to see you. Always use
your dipped beam headlights if it is dark or if
visibility is poor. CAUTION
● Use the light s

in line with local law.
● However, drivers always remain responsi-
ble f
or correctly adjusting and using the
lights. Note
● An audibl e w

arning will be heard when the
light control is set to  and you remove the ignition key and open the door. Once the
driver door i
s

closed (ignition off), the audi-
ble warning will stop, whereas the side lights
will remain on to light up the stationary vehi-
cle in case this is necessary.
● Depending on weather conditions (cold or
wet), the lights
may mist up temporarily on
the inside. This is particularly the case in the
event of a difference in temperature between
the inside and in front of the light. By switch-
ing on the lights, the area through which the
beam of light is projected will quickly be
demisted, although the edges may remain
misted. The real lights and turn signals can
mist up. This has no influence on the useful
life of the lighting system. Control lamps

Automatic control of the dipped beam in
combination with the daytime running lights
If the dipped beam control and the daytime
running lights are activated at the same
time, the dipped beams and the instrument
panel lighting will automatically come on as
required (e.g. when entering a tunnel) and
the daytime running lights will switch off.
When the automatic dipped beam control
switches off the dipped beams (e.g. when
coming out of a tunnel), the daytime running
lights come back on. WARNING
The rear lights do not come on with the day-
time drivin g light
