This means that your settings will be activated
for you, even if in the meantime your car was
used by someone else with another remote
control and the corresponding settings.
At most three remote controls can be set for
three different people. A prerequisite is that
each person uses a separate remote control.

Central locking system

The concept

The central locking system is ready for operation
whenever the driver's door is closed.
The system simultaneously engages and
releases the locks on the following:

>

Doors

>

Tailgate

>

Fuel filler flap

Operating from outside

>

Via the remote control

>

Using the door lock

>

In cars with Comfort Access, via the door
handles on the driver's and passenger's
sides

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. The remote control can also be used to
switch on/off the welcome lamps and interior
lamps. The alarm system is also activated or
deactivated, page

34

.

Operating from inside

Button for central locking system, page

32

.

In the event of a sufficiently severe accident,
the central locking system unlocks automati-
cally. In addition, the hazard warning flashers
and interior lamps come on.

Opening and closing:
from outside

Persons or animals in a parked vehicle
could lock the doors from the inside. Take

the key with you when you leave the vehicle
so that the vehicle can be opened from the
outside.
