HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
With this system the driver’s, front pas-
senger’s and the wing doors can also be
locked and unlocked.
This system can be activated from any
door.
When unlocking the door,
all the safety
buttons rise;
when locking the door
, all
the safety buttons go down.
The doors can also be locked by
lowering
the safety buttons.
When the driver’s or
front passenger’s door is locked, the
other doors are locked at the same time.
To lock the doors all the locking knobs
must be down. If one knob is up, please
open again the door and close correctly.
The driver’s and front passenger’s doors
cannot be locked by pushing down the
locking knobs while the doors are
open
.
This system avoids accidental locking of
the door leaving the ignition key inside
the car.
The doors can also be opened or closed
by means of the remote radio frequency.
Warning
•
When the vehicle is locked with
a key, nobody should be left
inside the car, specially children,
since locked doors may not be
opened from inside if the safety
buttons have not been raised.
This is very important in case of
versions provided with power win-
dows, because they may not be
opened either. See the "Electric
windows" chapter.
•
When the safety button on the
driver’s or front passenger’s door
is lowered the other doors lock
automatically at the same time.
•
Locking the doors this way may
hinder opening in the event of an
accident. It further prevents the
entry of intruders, for example
when the car is standing at traffic
lights. However, and in case of
emergency, the outside help is
also hindered.
•
While driving, the safety buttons
on the doors should not be
pressed down so that, in case of
an emergency, help can easily be
provided to the occupants of the
vehicle.
