The turn signals do not ash
If the turn signals do not ash as a conrma-
tion when the vehicle is locked:
●
At least one door or the rear lid are not
closed or
●
The engine bonnet is not closed.
The vehicle locks automatically
If one of the following conditions is met, the
vehicle re-locks automatically after approx. 45
seconds.
●
The vehicle has been unlocked, but none of
the doors or the rear lid have been opened.
What happens when locking the vehicle with
a second key
They key inside the vehicle is blocked and can-
not be used to start the engine as soon as the
vehicle is locked from the outside with a sec-
ond key. To activate the key inside the vehicle
to allow it to switch on the engine, press its
button.
Locking the vehicle after an airbag is trig-
gered
When an airbag is triggered as a result of
an accident, the vehicle is fully unlocked. De-
pending on the extent of the damage, the ve-
hicle may be relocked after the accident as
described below:
●
Switch the ignition
o.
●
Open the driver's door and close it again.
●
Lock the vehicle.
Note
If the 12-volt vehicle battery has little or
no charge, or the vehicle key battery is al-
most or entirely out of charge, you will prob-
ably not be able to lock or unlock the vehi-
cle with the Keyless Access system. The ve-
hicle can be unlocked and locked manually
›››page108.
Note
If there is no vehicle key in the vehicle or
the system does not detect it, a warning will
be displayed on the instrument cluster. This
could happen if any other radio frequency
signal interferes with the key signal or if the
key is covered by another object, e.g. a metal
case.
Anti-theft alarm
Description
Depending on the equipment, the vehicle may
be tted with an anti-theft alarm.
The theft alarm monitors the doors, bonnet
and rear lid.
The anti-theft alarm system activates automat-
ically when the vehicle is locked.
If the vehicle is not opened electronically with
a valid key, the alarm triggers and emits audio
and light signals for a maximum of approx. 5
minutes.
When is the anti-theft alarm triggered?
●
If a mechanically unlocked door is opened
with the vehicle key, you have 15 seconds to
switch on the ignition before the alarm is trig-
gered (depending on markets, the 15 seconds
waiting time disappears and the alarm is trig-
gered immediately when the door is opened).
●
If the bonnet is opened.
●
If the rear lid is opened.
●
If an invalid vehicle key is used.
●
If there are movements inside the ve-
hicle (in vehicles with interior monitoring
›››page107).
●
If the vehicle is lifted or towed (for vehicles
with an anti-tow system ›››page107.
●
If the vehicle is transported on a ferry or by
rail (in vehicles with an anti-tow system or inte-
rior monitoring ›››page107).
●
If the 12-volt battery is disconnected.
●
If the window is broken.
