Keys Central locking system
1 The master keys with remote control
determine the functions of the Key
Memory. Refer to page 55.
You can mark individual keys for
subsequent identification by applying
the colored decals that you received
when accepting delivery of your
vehicle
There is an extended-life battery
in every master key that is
charged automatically in the steering
lock as you drive.
For this reason, if you have a master
key that is not in regular use, you
should use that key approx. once every
year while driving for an extended
period to charge the battery. For addi-
tional information refer to page 28.<

The concept
The central locking system is ready for
operation when both front doors are
closed. 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 lock
as well as via the remote control
> from inside via the central locking
system button.
The fuel filler door is not locked when
you open the vehicle from the inside
(refer to page 31). The anti-theft system
is automatically armed whenever you
activate the central locking system from
outside of the vehicle. Both the door
locks and release handles remain
locked. The alarm system is also acti-
vated or deactivated. When you use the
central locking system to lock the doors
from inside the vehicle, it will automati-
cally disengage the locks if an accident
occurs, except on doors that have been
locked individually using the lock
buttons, refer to page 31. The accident
response routine also includes auto-
matic activation of the hazard warning
flashers and the interior lamps.
