If the central locking system should fail to work

can only be seen if the door is open.

is on the right side) or to the left (if the door is on
the left side).
Once the door has been closed it can no longer
be opened from the outside. Pull the interior

The childproof lock prevents the rear doors

deactivated manually, as described below.

●
Unlock the vehicle and open the door whose
childproof lock you want to deactivate.
●
With the door open, turn the slot with the
vehicle key anticlockwise for the left doors
