Central
locking*
With the central locking all the doors, and -
depending on the position of the tailgate
lock - the tailgate can be locked and un-
locked.
The system is operated from the driver's
door or front passenger door - from
outside with the main or emergency key,
from inside with the locking knob.
When locking, the locking knobs on all
doors must move down. If the knob on one
door does not move at any time, open the
door concerned and close it properly.
Sliding door and tailgate or wing
door can be locked or unlocked separately
with the main or emergency key.
See the instructions on page 33 for vehicles
with security locking*.
• If the central locking should develop a
fault, all the locks can be operated normally,
see page 34.
Warning
• When the locking knobs in the
driver's or front passenger doors
are pressed down all other doors
are locked automatically.
Since it would be difficult to
ren-
der assistance from the outside
in an emergency, when the doors
are locked, children should never
be left in the vehicle on their
own.
• Locking the doors can prevent
them from bursting open in an
extraordinary accident situation.
Locked doors also prevent unin-
vited persons from entering the
vehicle, e.g. at traffic lights.
However, in an emergency they
also make it more difficult for
outside help to get into the ve-
hicle.
