Opening and closing – at the door lock

Do not lock the car from outside if
there is someone inside, because

the doors cannot be unlocked from
inside.

You can arrange for a signal to be
provided as confirmation that the

car has been locked correctly.

Certain national market versions
require you to unlock twice, the

first time to unlock the driver's door, the
second time to release the remaining
locks.

If you wish, you can have this spe-
cial arrangement programmed for

each specific remote control.

On certain national market ver-
sions, the alarm system can only

be operated from the remote control.
On these cars, unlocking at the door
lock triggers the alarm.
To switch off the alarm:

Press the button on the remote control
or turn the ignition key to position 1.
For further details on the alarm system,
see page

Convenient operation

The electric windows and the glass
sunroof can also be operated at the
door lock.
> To open: when the door is closed,

turn the key in the door lock to the
release position and hold it there

> To close: when the door is closed,

turn the key to the locking position
and hold it there.

Watch the closing movement to
ensure that no-one is trapped.

The movement is stopped when the key
is released.

Manual operation

In the event of an electrical malfunction,
you can lock and unlock the driver's
door by turning the key to the limit posi-
tions in the door lock.
