STEERING COLUMN LOCK
Your vehicle may be fitted with an
electronic steering column lock, which
locks and unlocks in conjunction with the
vehicle's locking system. It also locks
automatically, after a time delay, when the
ignition is switched off and the Smart key
is removed from the vehicle.
During vehicle recovery, a Smart
key must remain inside the vehicle,
so that the electronic steering
column lock remains unlocked.
Any malfunction of the steering column
lock is indicated by the message Steering
Column Locked displayed in the Message
centre. If this occurs:
1. Lock and then unlock the vehicle using
the Smart key.
2. Try again to unlock the steering
column lock, by turning the steering
wheel gently to the left and right.
Note: This situation may occur if the
steering column is under load,.e.g, if
the vehicle is parked with the steering
on full lock, the steering wheel position
may inadvertently press a front tyre
against a kerb, etc.
If the problem persists, seek qualified
assistance immediately.
DRIVE-AWAY LOCKING
Drive-away locking automatically locks all
of the doors when the vehicle reaches a
set speed. This feature can be enabled/
disabled via Drive-away locking in the
Instrument menu. See 49, INSTRUMENT
PANEL MENU.
Note: Pressing the unlock or lock button
on the driver or front passenger door after
Drive-away locking has taken place,
overrides Drive-away locking for the
current journey. See 18, DOOR LOCKS
AND RELEASE LEVERS.
OPENING AND CLOSING THE
TAILGATE
While the tailgate is open, the
locking latch is exposed. Do not
attempt to manually close the
latch, as it may also automatically
‘soft close’ and trap items or body
parts.
Make sure there is sufficient space
above and at the rear of the vehicle,
before operating the tailgate.
Insufficient opening space may
result in damage to the vehicle.
Do not operate the tailgate if a
cycle rack is fitted to the tailgate.
Remove any cycles and/or racks
before operating the tailgate.
