Unlocking and opening doors

Either unlock the doors together with the
button for the central locking system and
then pull the door handle above the armrest
or

pull on the door handle of each door twice:
the first time unlocks the door, the second
time opens it.

Locking

Use the central locking button to lock all of
the doors simultaneously, or

press down the lock button of a door. To
prevent you from being locked out, the
open driver's door cannot be locked using
the lock button.

Because any persons or animals left unat-
tended in a parked vehicle could lock the

doors from the inside, you should always keep
the remote control with you; this precaution
ensures that you will remain able to unlock the
vehicle from the outside at all times.
