Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Before engaging the system
please therefore check that there is no one left
on board.
WARNING

system can be engaged by inser ting
the metal key in the door lock as described
previously: in this case, the device only remains
active for the rear doors.
