Opening and closing
be done each time that the vehicle is locked;
if not, they will be aut
omatically s
wit
ched on.
The v
ehicl
e interior monitoring and the anti-
tow system should be switched off if animals
are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise,
their movements will trigger the alarm) or
when, for example, the vehicle is transported
or has to be towed with only one axle on the
ground.
Deactivation through the infotainment
system
Turn off the ignition and select: key 
> Vehicle > SETTINGS > Opening and
closing> Central locking > Interior
monitoring.
When the vehicle is locked now, the vehicle
interior monitoring and the tow-away protec-
tion are switched off until the next time the
door is opened.
False alarms
Interior monitoring will only operate correctly
if the vehicle is completely closed. Please ob-
serve related legal requirements.
The following cases may cause a false
alarm:
Open windows (partially or fully).
Panoramic/tilting sunroof open (partially or
completely).
Movement of objects inside the vehicle,
such as loose papers, items hanging from the
rear vision mirror (air fresheners), etc.
Note
If the vehicle is relock
ed and the alarm is
activated without the volumetric sensor
function, relocking will activate the alarm
with all its functions, except the volumetric
sensor. This function is reactivated when
the alarm is switched on again, unless it is
deliberately switched off.
If the alarm has been triggered by the
volumetric sensor, this will be indicated by
a flashing of the warning lamp on the driver
door when the vehicle is opened. The flash
is different to the flash indicating the alarm
is activated.
The vibration of a mobile phone left in-
side the vehicle may cause the vehicle in-
terior monitoring alarm to trigger, as both
sensors react to movements and shakes in-
side the vehicle.
If on activating the alarm, any door or the
rear lid is open, only the alarm will be acti-
vated. The vehicle interior monitoring and
the anti-tow system will only be activated
once all the doors are closed (including the
rear lid).
Doors
Intr
oduction
The doors and rear lid can be locked man-
ually and partially opened, for example if the
k
ey or the central locking is damaged.
WARNING
Opening and closing doors carelessly can
cause serious injury.
If the vehicle is locked from outside, the
doors and windows cannot be opened from
the inside.
Nev
er leave children or disabled people
alone in the car. They could be trapped in
the car in an emergency and will not be
able to get themselves to safety.
Depending on the time of the year, tem-
peratures inside a locked and closed vehi-
cle can be extremely high or extremely low
resulting in serious injuries and illness or
even death, particularly for young children.
WARNING
Getting in the way of the doors and the rear
lid is dangerous and can lead to serious in-
jury.
Open and close the doors and the r
ear lid
only when there is nobody in the way.
