WARNING
■
If the car is locked and the safe securing system activated, no people must
remain in the car as it will then not be possible to either unlock a door or open
a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescuers
to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
■
Locked doors prevent unwanted entry into the vehicle from outside, for ex-
ample at road crossings.
Note
■
In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access to the vehi-
cle.
■
Only the driver's door can be unlocked or locked using the key if the central
locking system fails » page 32. The other doors and the tailgate can be emer-
gency locked or emergency released.
