Operation
Unlocking and locking the boot hatch
When the
v
ehic
le is locked, the hatch auto-
matically unlocks on opening if ››› Fig. 131
there is a valid vehicle key in the proximity.
Open or close the hatch normally
››› page 122.
After closing, the hatch locks automatically.
In the following instances, the rear lid does
not lock automatically after closing:
●
If the entire vehicle is unlocked.
●
If the key used last is inside the vehicle. All
vehicle indicator lights flash four times. The
vehicle will lock again after a few seconds if
no door or boot hatch are opened.
Locking the vehicle with a second key
If there is a vehicle key inside the vehicle and
it is locked from the outside with a second
vehicle key, the key inside the vehicle is
blocked for engine ignition ››› page 182. In
order to enable engine ignition, the button
on the key inside the vehicle needs to be
pr
e
s
sed ››› Fig. 129.
Automatically disabling sensors
If the vehicle is not locked or unlocked for a
long period of time, the proximity sensor on
the passenger door is automatically disa-
bled.
If the exterior sensor on the door handle is
often activated unusually with the vehicle
locked (e.g. by the branches of a bush rub-
bing against it), all proximity sensors are dis-
abled for a time. If this only happens with the
exterior sensor on the driver's door, only this
sensor is disabled.
Sensors will again be enabled:
●
After a time.
●
OR: if the vehicle is unlocked with the but-
ton
on the key.
●
OR: if
the boot is opened.

located on the exterior part of
the driv
er or p
a
ssenger door handle until the
windows and roof close.
Opening the doors by touching the sensor
surface on the handle takes places in accord-
ance with the settings activated on the menu

page 26.
CAUTION
The sensor surfaces on the door handles
coul
d engage if hit with a water jet or high
pressure steam if there is a valid vehicle key
in the nearby area. If at least one of the win-
dows is open and the sensor surface
B
on
one of the handle permanently activates, all
window
s will close. If the water jet or steam
is briefly moved away from the sensor sur-
face
A
on one of the handles and then poin-
ted at it
again, all the windows will probably
open ››› page 116, Convenience functions.
Note
●
If
the v
ehicle battery has little or no charge,
or the vehicle key battery is almost or entire-
ly out of charge, it is likely that the vehicle
will not be able to be lock or unlocked with
the Keyless Access system. The vehicle can
be unlocked or locked manually ››› page 89.
●
If there is no valid key inside the vehicle or
the system fails to detect one, a warning will
display on the dash panel screen. This could
happen if any other radio frequency signal in-
terferes with the key signal (e.g. from a mo-
bile device accessory) or if the key is covered
by another object (e.g. an aluminium case).
●
If the sensors are very dirty, e.g. have a lay-
er of salt, how the sensors on the door han-
dles operate may be affected. If this is the
case, wash the vehicle ››› page 250.
●
If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic
gearbox, it may only be locked in the gear
stick is in position P.
