Locking and unlocking the vehicle
From outside the vehicle
The remote key locks and unlocks all of the
doors and the tailgate.
Before the vehicle can be locked from the out-
side with the remote key, the driver's door must
be closed. Any other door/tailgate that is open
will be locked and the alarm will be armed.
NOTE
Be sure the remote key is outside of the
vehicle before the other doors/tailgate are
closed to help avoid locking the remote
inside the vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional key-
less drive system, all doors/tailgate must be
closed before the vehicle can be locked.
The first press on the unlock button unlocks the
driver's door and a second press unlocks the
other doors and the tailgate (see also page 57).
This setting can be changed in the menu sys-
tem. See page 189 for a description.
If the locks repeatedly do not react when the
unlock button is pressed, it may be necessary
to replace the batteries in the remote, see
page 56. In this case the vehicle can be
unlocked with the detachable key blade. See
page 60.
From inside the vehicle (central locking
button)
Central locking button
The lock buttons on the door panel can be used
to lock or unlock all doors and the tailgate at
the same time. Press
to lock and to
unlock.
Unlocking
The vehicle can be unlocked from inside the
vehicle in two ways:
• By pressing the unlock button .
• The door can be unlocked by pulling the
door handle once and opened by pulling
the handle again.
Locking
• Press the lock button after the front
doors have been closed.
• Each door can be locked individually with
the lock button on the respective doors.
The door must be closed first.
Alternative locking when parking
The central locking button on the driver's door
can also be used to lock the vehicle when you
leave it. To do so:
1. Open the door.
2. Press the lock section of the button.
3. Close the door. This will lock the vehicle
completely and arm the alarm.
NOTE
Please be aware that locking the vehicle in
this way makes it possible to lock the
remote key in the passenger compartment.
To help avoid this, lock the vehicle from the
outside by pressing the lock button on the
remote key.
If the vehicle is locked using the central
locking button, be sure that the remote key
is in your possession before closing the
door.
