Opening and closing
The childproof lock prevents the rear doors
fr
om bein
g opened fr
om the inside. This sys-
tem prevents minors from opening a door ac-
cidentally while the vehicle is running.
This function is independent of the vehicle
electronic opening and locking systems. It
only affects rear doors. It can only be activa-
ted and deactivated manually, as described
below:
Activating the childproof lock
Unlock the vehicle and open the door in
which you wish to activate the childproof
lock.
With the door open, rotate the groove in
the door using the ignition key, anti-clock-
wise for the left-hand side doors Fig. 105
and clockwise for the right-hand side
doors.
Deactivating the childproof lock
Unlock the vehicle and open the door
whose childproof lock you want to deacti-
vate.
With the door open, rotate the groove in
the door using the ignition key, anti-clock-
wise for the right-hand side doors, and
clockwise for the left-hand side doors
Fig. 105.
Once the childproof lock is activated, the
door can only be opened from the outside.
The childproof lock can be activated or deac-
tivated by inserting the key in the groove
when the door is open, as described above.
Rear lid
Introduction
WARNING
Careless and unsuitable locking, opening and
clos
ing of the rear lid can cause accidents
and serious injury.
Open and close the rear lid only when no-
body is in the way.
Do not close the rear lid by pushing it down
with your hand on the rear window. This
could break and cause injury.
Ensure the rear lid is locked after closing,
otherwise, it may open unexpectedly while
driving. A closed rear lid should be flush with
the corresponding parts of the bodywork.
Always keep the rear lid closed while driv-
ing to avoid toxic gases entering the vehicle
interior.
Do not open the rear lid when there is a
load installed, for example a carrier system.
Likewise, the boot hatch cannot be opened
when a load is attached to it, for example bi-
cycles. An open rear lid could close itself if
there is an additional weight on it. If necessa-
ry, press down on the rear lid and remove the
load.
C
lose and lock both the rear lid and all the
other doors when you are not using the vehi-
cle. Ensure that nobody remains inside the
vehicle.
Never allow children to play inside or
around the vehicle without supervision, espe-
cially if the rear lid is open. Children could
enter the luggage compartment, close the
rear lid and become trapped. Depending on
the time of the year, temperatures inside a
locked and closed vehicle can be extremely
high or extremely low resulting in serious in-
juries and illness or even death, particularly
for young children.
Never leave children or disabled people
alone in the vehicle. If the vehicle key or the
central locking button is used, they may be
locked in the vehicle.
CAUTION
Before opening the rear lid, ensure that there
is s
ufficient free space to open and close it,
for example if you are in a garage.
