Power closing assist for doors and

trunk lid closed. A pneumatic power-as-
sisted mechanism draws doors and trunk
lid closed quietly and automatically once
door and trunk lid has been latched. When
the pneumatic power-assisted mechanism
has stopped, doors and/or trunk can be
re-opened.

engage position into the lock.
The doors close automatically.

Automatic central locking
The doors and the trunk automatically lock
when the ignition is switched on and the
wheels are turning at vehicle speeds of ap-

You can open a locked door from the in-
side. Open door only when conditions are
safe to do so.
You can deactivate the automatic locking
using the control system (
