ZA WARNING
— If you leave the vehicle, switch the ignition
off and take the key with you. This applies
particularly when children remain in the ve-
hicle. Otherwise, children could start the en-
gine or operate electrical equipment (such
as power windows), which increases the risk
of an accident.
— Applies to: vehicles with anti-theft alarm
system: When the vehicle is locked from the
outside, no one - especially children - should
remain in the vehicle, because the windows
can no longer be opened from the inside
= page 31, Anti-theft alarm system.
Locked doors make it more difficult for
emergency workers to enter the vehicle,
which puts lives at risk.
All doors and the luggage compartment lid can
be centrally unlocked and locked at once. You can
select in the MMI if the entire vehicle or only the
driver's door should unlock when unlocking the
vehicle > page 29. The turn signals flash twice
when you unlock the vehicle and flash once when
you lock the vehicle. If they do not flash when
locking, check if all doors and lids are closed.


Depending on the vehicle equipment, you may
have different options for centrally unlocking and
locking your vehicle.

Key / vehicle key
The term “key” can refer to the remote control or
convenience key*, or to a mobile device.
The term “vehicle key” refers to the remote con-
trol key or convenience key*. The convenience
238
key* is a remote control key with special func-
tions > page 33 and > page 80.
Automatic locking
If you unlock the vehicle but then do not open
any of the doors, the luggage compartment, or
the hood within a short period time, the vehicle
locks again automatically. This feature prevents
the vehicle from being accidentally left unlocked
for a long period of time.
Automatic locking (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock function locks all doors and the
luggage compartment lid once the speed has ex-
ceeded approximately 9 mph (15 km/h).
The vehicle will unlock again if the unlock func-
tion in the central locking switch is pressed, one
of the door handles is pulled, the “P” gear is en-
gaged, or the ignition is switched off.
In the event of a crash with airbag deployment,
the doors will also automatically unlock to allow
access to the vehicle.
Unintentionally locking yourself out
Only lock your vehicle when all of the doors and
the luggage compartment lid are closed and
there is no key in the vehicle. This reduces the
risk of locking yourself out accidentally.
The
following features help to reduce the risk of
locking your vehicle key in the vehicle:
— If the driver's door is open, the vehicle cannot
be locked by pressing the & button on the re-
mote control key or by touching the locking
sensor* on one of the front doors.
—If the most recently used convenience key” is
inside the luggage compartment, the luggage
compartment lid will automatically open again
after closing it.
— If the last convenience key* that was used is de-
tected inside the vehicle, the vehicle cannot be
locked from the outside for a brief time > ©.

Applies to: vehicles with anti-theft alarm system

If the anti-theft alarm system detects a vehicle
break-in, audio and visual warning signals are
triggered. The anti-theft alarm system is switch-
ed on or off when locking or unlocking your vehi-
cle. If the alarm is triggered, it will shut off auto-
matically after a certain amount of time.
Switching the alarm off manually
> To switch the alarm off, press the G button on
the vehicle key or switch the ignition on.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the anti-
theft alarm system may have the following fea-
tures:
Break-in security feature
The alarm will sound if there is a break-in at the
doors, hood, and/or luggage compartment lid.
Interior/towing protection monitor
The alarm will be triggered if there are move-
ments detected in the vehicle interior (for exam-
ple, by animals) or if there is a change in the vehi-
cle angle (for example, when the vehicle is being
towed).
You can prevent the alarm from being triggered
by deactivating the interior/towing protection
monitor.
Deactivating the interior/towing protection
monitor
There are the following options for deactivating
the interior/towing protection monitor:
> Press the ff button on the vehicle key a second
time within two seconds. Or
> Applies to: vehicles with convenience key:
Touch the sensor on a front door handle a sec-
ond time within two seconds. Or
> Turn the vehicle key in the door lock to the close
position a second time within two seconds.
If you lock the vehicle, then the interior/towing
protection monitor will stay off until the next
time the vehicle is unlocked.

ZA\ WARNING
No one, especially children, should stay in the
vehicle when it is locked from the outside, be-
cause the windows can no longer be opened
from the inside. Locked doors make it more
difficult for emergency workers to enter the
vehicle, which puts lives at risk.
@) Tips
The interior/towing protection monitoring on-
ly functions correctly when the windows and
the roof* are closed.

Opening and closing



— Always close and lock the luggage compart-
ment lid and the doors when the vehicle is
not in use. Otherwise someone such as a
child could enter the vehicle through the
luggage compartment and become locked
inside it. To reduce the risk of injury, do not
allow children to play in or around the vehi-
cle.
—To reduce the risk of injuries by pinching,
make sure that no one is in the operating
area of the luggage compartment lid, in-
cluding the hinge areas and the upper and
lower edge of the luggage compartment lid.
—
After closing the luggage compartment lid,
make sure that it is latched. The luggage
compartment lid could open suddenly while
driving, which would increase the risk of an
accident.

lid ajar or open, because poisonous gases
from the surrounding area can enter the ve-
hicle interior and increase the risk of asphyx-
iation.
— Applies to: vehicles with power-operated or
sensor-controlled luggage compartment lid:
If there is a luggage rack (such as a bicycle
rack) on the luggage compartment lid, the
luggage compartment lid may not open
completely under certain circumstances or it
could close by itself if open due to the extra
weight. Therefore, the open luggage com-
partment lid must be given additional sup-
port or the cargo must first be removed
from the luggage rack.
— Applies to: vehicles with power-operated or
sensor-controlled luggage compartment lid:
Pay careful attention when closing the lug-
gage compartment lid. Otherwise, you could
cause serious injury to yourself or others de-
spite the pinch protection.

The luggage compartment lid can bump into
objects such as the garage ceiling when open-
ing and become damaged.

When the vehicle is locked, the luggage com-
partment lid can be unlocked separately by
