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
>
Fuel filler door
The central locking system can be operated
from the outside
>
via the remote control
>
via the door lock
and from inside via the button for the central
locking system.
When actuated from the inside, the fuel filler
door is not locked, refer to page
.
The anti-theft system is automatically activated
whenever you operate the central locking sys-
tem from outside the vehicle. It prevents the
doors from being unlocked using the lock but-
tons or door handles. The alarm system is
armed/disarmed at the same time. The remote
control is also used to switch the interior lamps
on and off.
You can find more detailed information on the
alarm system on page
.
In an accident of sufficient severity, the central
locking system automatically unlocks the vehi-
cle. In addition, the hazard warning flashers and
interior lamps come on.
Opening and closing: from
outside
Using the remote control
Protect the remote control against unau-
thorized use by handing over only the
spare key, for example when using valet park-
ing.
<
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.
