Accidental lock-out
To
prevent
yourseLf from being locked out, only
lock the vehicle when the remote control key is
not in the vehicle and all of the doors and the
boot lid are closed.
The central locking system prevents you from be­
ing locked out of the vehicle in the following sit­
uations:
- When the driver's door is open, you cannot Lock
the vehicle by pressing the
M
button on the re­
mote control key or touching the locking
sen­

sor* on one of the doors.
- The boot lid will be released again automatical­
ly if the convenience key* that was last in use is
left inside the boot when the boot lid is closed.
- If the convenience key* that was last in use is
detected in the vehicle, it is not possible to lock
the vehicle from the outside.
A WARNING
- Always take the key with you when leaving
the vehicle - even if
you
only intend to be
gone for a short time. This is especially im­
portant if children are left in the car. They
might otherwise be able to start the engine
or use power-operated equipment such as
the electric windows - this could lead to in­

juries.

- Locked doors could delay assistance in an
emergency, potentially putting lives at risk.
Do not leave anyone (especially children) in
the vehicle.
© Note
- Never leave any valuable items in the
vehi­

cle unattended. Even a locked vehicle is not
a safe.
- When you lock the vehicle, the LED on the
driver's window sill flashes. If the LED is
still on about 30 seconds after the vehicle is

locked,
the central locking system is not
working properly. You should have the
mal­

function repaired by
a
qualified workshop.
