06 Locks and alarm
Privacy locking*
Activate/deactivate
Privacy locking is intended for when the car is
left for service, with a hotel parking valet or
similar. The glovebox is then locked and the
tailgate lock is disconnected from the central
locking - the tailgate cannot be opened with
either the central locking button in the front
doors or the remote control key (p. 168).
Active locks for remote control key, without key
blade and privacy locking activated.
Activating privacy locking.
This means that the remote control key with-
out key blade can only be used to activate/
deactivate the alarm (p. 191), to unlock the
doors and to start the car.
To activate privacy locking:
Insert the key blade in the glovebox lock
cylinder.
Turn the key blade 180 degrees clock-
wise.
The remote control key without key blade can
then be handed over to the service or hotel
staff - the loose key blade is retained by the
car owner.
Pull out the key blade. The combined
instrument panel's information display
shows a message at the same time.
Active locks for remote control key with key

The glovebox is then locked and the tailgate
can no longer be unlocked with the remote
control key or the central locking button.
Do not forget to pull out the cargo cover
(p. 166) over the cargo area before closing
the tailgate.
NOTE
Do not reinsert the key blade into the
remote control key, but keep it in a safe
place instead.
