Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for opera-
tion whenever the driver's door is closed.
The system either locks or unlocks all of the fol-
lowing:
> Doors
> Compartment in the front center console
> Luggage compartment lid
> Fuel filler door
Operating from outside
> via the remote control
> via the door lock
> with comfort access * via the door handles
These actions operate the anti-theft system at
the same time. It prevents the doors from being
unlocked using the lock buttons or door han-
dles. The interior lamps and the courtesy
lamps
* are also switched on and off with the
remote control. The alarm system is armed/dis-
armed at the same time.
You can find more detailed information on the
alarm system
on page 35 .
Operating from inside
Via the central locking button, refer to page 32 .
The fuel filler door and the compartment in the
front center console are not locked, refer to
page
32 .
In the event of a serious accident, the central
locking system unlocks automatically. The haz-
ard warning flashers and interior lamps are also
switched on.
