Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for opera-
tion whenever the driver's door is closed.
The system simultaneously engages and
releases the locks on the following:
> Doors
> Luggage compartment lid/tailgate
> Fuel filler door
Operating from outside
> Via the remote control
> Via the door lock
> In cars with convenient access * , via the
handles on the driver's and front passen-
ger's doors
The anti-theft system is also operated at the
same time. It prevents the doors from being
unlocked using the lock buttons or door han-
dles. In addition, if the remote control is used,
the interior lamps and the door's courtesy
lamps
* are also switched on or off. The alarm
system * is also armed or disarmed.
For further details of the alarm system, refer to
page 35 .
Operating from inside
By means of the button for central locking, refer
to page
32 .
In the event of a sufficiently severe accident, the
central locking system unlocks automatically. In
addition, the hazard warning flashers and inte-
rior lamps come on.
Opening and closing: from
outside
Using the remote control
Persons or animals in a parked vehicle
could lock the doors from the inside. You
should therefore take the remote control with
you when you leave the vehicle so that the latter
can be opened from outside.
<
Unlocking
Press the button.
The interior lamps and the courtesy lamps *

car is unlocked. The setting is stored for the
remote control currently in use.
