Switches on front doors
The central locking can also be operated
from inside the car using the button by each
front door handle.
Locking the car with the remote control ren-
ders these buttons inoperative.
Sport Sedan: If you are sitting in the car and
pressing the button on the driver’s
door, the driver’s door will unlock. Pressing
the button a second time will unlock the
remaining doors.
SportWagon: If you are sitting in the car
and pressing the button on the driver’s
door, the driver’s door will unlock. Pressing
the button a second time will unlock the
remaining doors and the tailgate.
The button on the passenger door works in
the same way except that this first unlocks
the passenger door. During this operation
the rear doors remain locked.
If the car is left with one or more doors open,
the interior lighting will be switched off auto-
matically after 20 minutes. This is to prevent
the battery from running flat. Also, if the car
has electrically adjustable seats, these will
cease to operate.
Child safety locks
The rear doors are equipped with child
safety locks that are activated by means of
a catch next to the door latch.
Insert a screwdriver or the traditional key
(enclosed in the remote control) and turn it
45° in the direction shown on the label on
the door.
When the child safety lock is in the locked
position, the door can only be opened from
outside the car.
WARNING
If small children are carried in the rear
seat, the safety locks on the rear doors
should be activated to prevent uninten-
tional opening from the inside.
