lead to serious injuries.

Make sure that the door is closed properly and that the lock has engaged. The closed door must be
flush with the surrounding body panels.
Doors should be opened or closed only when you are sure that nobody is in their path.
WARNING
Any door being held open by the door arrester could close unexpectedly in strong winds or if the
vehicle is on a slope. This could lead to injuries.
Always hold doors by the handle when opening and closing doors.
WARNING
The opening and closing paths of the doors and boot lid are potential danger areas where injury can
occur.
The doors and boot lid should therefore be opened or closed only when you are sure that nobody is
in their path.
WARNING
Careless locking of the doors can cause serious injuries.
If the vehicle is locked from the outside, the doors and electric windows cannot be opened from the
inside.

from being opened unintentionally and unauthorised persons from entering the vehicle. However,
locked doors can delay assistance to passengers inside the vehicle in the event of an accident or
emergency.

the boot lid beforehand.
