OPENING AND CLOSING – FROM INSIDE
With this switch, you operate the central
locking system when the doors are closed.
The doors and tailgate are unlocked or
locked only.
The anti-theft system is not activated. Also,
the fuel filler door remains unlocked to
allow refueling.
If the remote control has been used
to unlock only the driver's door, see
page 24, and you touch the switch when
the driver's door is open, the other door,
the tailgate, and the fuel filler door are
unlocked.
If the driver's door is closed, touching the
switch locks it.<
The central locking system can be
locked automatically as soon as you
begin to drive if you desire. This can be
adjusted to be vehicle-specific.<
To unlock and open the doors
1. Touch the switch for the central locking
system
2. Pull the door handle above the armrest
or
pull the door handle for each door twice: to
unlock first and then open.
Convenience opening mode
From ignition key position 1:
Hold the switch in the "Unlock" position.
The windows and sliding/tilt sunroof open.
Convenience closing is not possible
by means of the central locking
system. You should therefore close all the
windows and the sliding/tilt sunroof indi-
vidually.<
To lock
Touch the switch for the central locking
system
or
press the individual safety lock buttons
down.
Children might be able to lock the
doors from the inside. Always take
the vehicle's keys with you so that you can
open the vehicle again from the outside at
any time.<
