Central locking system Door locks – outside
The concept
The central locking system is ready for
operation as soon as you close the
driver's door. The system engages and
releases the locks on the
> doors
> luggage compartment lid
> fuel filler door.
The central locking system can be
operated
> from outside via the driver's door or
luggage compartment lock and with
the remote control
> from inside via the central locking
button.
The fuel filler door remains unlocked
when you activate the system from in-
side the vehicle.
The anti-theft system is automatically
armed whenever you activate the cen-
tral locking system from outside the ve-
hicle. The alarm system is also acti-
vated or deactivated.
In the event of an accident, the central
locking system unlocks automatically
(only those doors which were not
locked separately with the safety lock
buttons). Refer to page 36. In addition,
the hazard warning flashers and interior
lamps come on.
To engage and release locks
One turn of the key in the driver's door
lock unlocks the driver's door only.
Turning the key a second time unlocks
all of the remaining doors, the luggage
compartment lid and the fuel filler door.
When a door is opened, the inte-
rior lamps and the exterior door
handle illumination are switched on.
Switching off is automatic.<
