Unlocking all doors and the boot lid
Press button page 48, fig. 28. The symbol
goes out in
the button.
The following applies if you have locked your vehicle using the button :
It is not possible to open the doors or the boot lid from the outside
(safety feature, e.g. when stopping at traffic lights etc.).
You can unlock the doors individually from the inside and open them
by pulling the door opening lever.
If the driver door is opened, it cannot be locked, in order to avoid inad-
vertently being locked out of the vehicle You then have to lock a door
separately after closing it.
In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the
locked doors are automatically unlocked from the inside in order to enable
rescuers to gain access to the vehicle.
If the ignition is switched off, you can conveniently close or open the
windows by pressing and holding the button or page 58.
WARNING
The central locking system also operates if the ignition is switched
off. All the doors and the boot lid are locked. Children should never
be left unattended in the vehicle since it is difficult to provide
assistance from the outside when the doors are locked. Locked
doors make it difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an
emergency - hazard!
Note
The door opening lever and the buttons for the central locking system do
not operate if the safe securing system is activated.
Emergency locking of the doors
An emergency locking mechanism is located on the rear side of
the doors which have no locking cylinder; it is only visible after
opening the door.
Locking
