be synchronised once more as follows:
Unfold the vehicle key shaft ›› page 55.
Remove the cover from the driver door han-
dle page 259.
Pre
ss the button
on the vehicle key. For
this, it must remain with the vehicle.

the key shaft.
Turn on the ignition using the vehicle key.
The key has been synchronised.
Replace the driver door handle cover.
Central locking and locking
system
Introduction
Central locking functions correctly when all
the doors and the rear lid are correctly shut.
If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot
be locked with the key.
If the vehicle has the Keyless Access closing
and ignition system, it may only be locked
with the ignition off and the driver's door
closed.
The battery of an unlocked vehicle parked for
a long period (e.g. in a private garage) may
run down and fail to start the motor.
WARNING
The incorrect use of the central locking sys-
tem may cause serious injuries.
The central locking system will lock all
doors. A vehicle locked from the inside can
prevent any non-authorised individual from
opening the doors and accessing the vehicle.
Nevertheless, in case of emergency or acci-
dent, locked doors will complicate access to
the vehicle interior to help the passengers.
Never leave children or disabled people
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.
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.
Never leave individuals locked in a closed
and locked vehicle. In case of emergency,
they may not be able to exit the vehicle by
themselves or get help.
Description of the central locking
system
The central locking system allows all doors
and the rear lid to be locked and unlocked
centrally.
From outside, using the vehicle key.
