Driver side door emergency
opening
If the electronic key does not work (e.g.
because its battery is flat), the
emergency metal insert inside the key
can anyway be used to operate the
lock, unlocking the driver side door.
To extract the metal insert, proceed as
follows:
press point A fig. 12 and pull out the
metal insert B;
insert the metal insert in the driver
side door lock and turn it to unlock the
door.
Tailgate locking
Approaching the tailgate with a valid
electronic key, press the opening button
fig. 13 underneath the tailgate handle to
lock/unlock the luggage compartment.
NOTE If there is an alarm system, the
latter will be temporarily disabled only
for the boot area. After closing the boot,
the alarm system will be reactivated
again.
The tailgate can however be locked by
pressing the
button on the electronic
key or on the inside door panel.
NOTE The tailgate door lock also
performs a central locking of the doors.
Boot opening is disabled while the car
is moving.
DEAD LOCK(where provided)

quickly.

CHILD SAFETY DEVICE
9) 10)
This system prevents the rear doors
from being opened from the inside.
The fig. 14 device can only be engaged
with the doors open:
position: device engaged (door
locked);
position: device not engaged
(door may be opened from the inside).
The device remains engaged even if the
doors are electrically unlocked.
IMPORTANT The rear doors cannot be
opened from the inside when the child
safety device is engaged.
WARNING
8) Once the Dead Lock system is engaged,
it is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Before getting out of the
car, please therefore check that there is
no-one left inside.
9) NEVER leave children unattended inside
the car, let alone leave the car with the
doors unlocked in a place that children can
access easily. Children may seriously, or
even fatally, injure themselves. Also ensure
that children do not inadvertently operate
the electric parking brake, the brake pedal
or the automatic transmission lever.
10) Always use this device when carrying
children. After engaging the child lock on
both rear doors, check for effective
engagement by trying to open a door with
the internal handle.
IMPORTANT
2) Make sure to take the key with you once
a door or the tailgate is locked, to prevent
locking the same key inside the vehicle. If
the key has been locked in, it can only be
recovered using the second provided key. 3)
The operation of the recognition system
depends on various factors, such as, for
example, any electromagnetic wave
interference from external sources (e.g.
mobile phones), the charge of the battery in
the electronic key and the presence of
metal objects near the key or the car. In
these cases it is still possible to unlock the
doors by using the metal insert in the
electronic key (see description on the
following pages).
