alone in the vehicle. The central locking but-

ton can be used to lock all the doors from

within. Therefore, passengers will be locked

inside the vehicle. Individuals locked in the

vehicle can be exposed to very high or very

low temperatures.

Note

If there is no vehicle key inside the vehicle or

the system fails to detect one, a warning will

display on the instrument cluster screen. This

could happen if any other radio frequency

signal interferes with the key signal or if the

key is covered by another object, e.g. a metal

case.

Automatic locking (Auto Lock)

●

Depending on the time of the year, temper-

atures inside a locked and closed vehicle can

be extremely high or extremely low resulting

in serious injuries and illness or even death,

particularly for young children.

The vehicle locks automatically at over a speed

of approx. 15 km/h (9 mph). The fuel tank ﬂap is

unlocked so that you can refuel without getting

out of the vehicle.

When the vehicle is locked, the control lamp

of the central locking button lights up yellow.

When unlocking, you can decide whether to un-

lock all doors, the driver’s door or doors on

one side. In all the options, the fuel tank ﬂap is

tance if necessary.

Turn signals

With the Driver setting, when you press the

button on the remote control key once, only the

driver door is unlocked. If that button is pressed

twice, the rest of the doors and the rear lid will

be unlocked.

The turn signals will ﬂash twice when the vehi-

cle is unlocked and once when the vehicle is

locked.

If it does not ﬂash, this indicates that one of the

doors, the rear lid or the bonnet is not closed

correctly.

If the button is pressed, all the vehicle doors

are locked. A conﬁrmation signal will sound si-

multaneously (depending on the version).
