Locking the rear lid with central locking*
If the vehicle is unlocked and no doors or the rear lid are opened during
about. 30 seconds, it will automatically lock again. This function prevents
the vehicle from remaining unlocked if the unlocking button is pressed by
mistake.

● The rear lid is also locked by a central locking.
● If the vehicle rear lid is locked or unlocked using the
button, when it
is closed once more it will lock automatically.
● A closed but not locked rear lid will lock automatically at a speed above
about 9 km/h (6 mph).

WARNING
Unsuitable or careless closing and locking of the rear lid could cause se-
rious injuries.
● Never leave the vehicle unattended, and never allow children to play
inside or around the vehicle without supervision, especially if the rear lid
is open. Children could enter the luggage compartment, close the rear lid
and become trapped. A locked vehicle can be subjected to extremely high
and low temperatures, depending on the time of year, thus causing seri-
ous injuries/illness and even death.
Note
Before closing the rear lid, make sure that the key has not been left inside
the boot.
