The vehicle is equipped with a central locking system which makes it possible
to unlock / lock all the doors, the fuel filler flap and boot lid simultaneously.
The door unlocking can be adjusted individually » page 54.
The unlocking of the vehicle is displayed by the turn signal lights flashing
twice.
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
45 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically.
The locking of the vehicle is displayed by the turn signal lights flashing once.
If the driver's door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be 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.
WARNING■ Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
ized persons (e.g. children) could lock the car, turn on the ignition or start
the engine - there is a danger of injury and accidents!■
When leaving the vehicle, never leave people who are not completely in-
dependent, such as children, unattended in the vehicle. These individuals
might not be able to leave the vehicle on their own or to help themselves.
Can be fatal at very high or very low temperatures!
CAUTION
■ Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
against moisture and severe shocks.■
Keep the keyway clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust etc.) have a negative
effect on the functionality of the locking cylinder and ignition lock.

SafeLock prevents the doors from behind opened from inside as well as win-
dow operation. This makes it more difficult for anyone to break into the vehi-
cle.
Switching on
SafeLock switches on when the vehicle is locked.
This function is pointed out by the following message on the display of the in-
strument cluster after the ignition is switched off.
SAFE interlock. note! Log book!CHECK SAFELOCK

Interior monitor and towing protection
58The alarm system triggers audible and visual signals if an attempt is made to
break into the vehicle (hereafter referred to as alarm).
The alarm system is activated automatically approximately 30 seconds after
the vehicle is locked. This is automatically disabled after release.
CAUTION
Before leaving the vehicle, it must be checked that all of the windows, doors
and the sliding/tilting roof are locked in order to ensure the full functionality of
the anti-theft alarm system.
Note
The alarm system has its own power source, the service life of which is 5 years.
In order to ensure functionality of the alarm system, we recommend that you
get the alarm checked after this time by a specialist garage.

vated on the vehicle with an activated warning system. ▶ Opening the bonnet.
▶ Opening the boot lid.
▶ Opening the doors.
▶ Manipulation of the ignition lock.
▶ Towing the vehicle.

CAUTIONPoorer visibility is evaluated by a sensor mounted below the windscreen in the
holder of the rear-view mirror. Do not cover the sensor - the system can be af-
fected.
Note
The setting (activate/deactivate) of the automatic driving light control during
rain is stored (depending on the Infotainment type) in the active user account

LED headlights
Read and observe
on page 65 first.
The LED headlights (hereinafter referred to as just system) use the journey da-ta to automatically ensure the best possible light cone in front of the vehicle.
The system will automatically operate in the following modes: urban, extra-ur-
ban, highway and mist. The static corning light provides for the illumination of
the road in the curve.
The system works as long as the light switch is in position
.
WARNINGIf there is a system malfunction the headlights are automatically lowered
to the emergency position, which prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming
traffic. This reduces the cone of light in front of the vehicle. Seek help from
a specialist garage.
Light Assist

Installation location versions of the sensor / system on/off
Read and observe on page 65 first.
The system automatically switches the high beam on/off in accordance with
the existing traffic (other vehicles) and environmental conditions (e.g. driving
through a lit village).
The high beam on/off is controlled by a sensor or a camera » Fig. 55.
