Doors and locks
There is a lock with a keyhole on
each of the front doors. All the
doors can be locked from inside
the car by pressing down the lock
buttons on the window ledge. On
the rear doors, this button must
first
be pulled up before the doors
can be opened from the inside. This
is
an important safety factor if
children are alone in the back. All
the doors can be locked by pressing
down the internal lock button and
then closing the doors.
Do
not leave
the keys in the car, otherwise you
can easily lock yourself out.
Many people make it a habit of
pressing down all the lock buttons.
In itself this is not an extra safety
precaution.
On the other hand,
however, the passengers are locked
in
and this might be dangerous
should an accident occur, especially
involving fire. For this reason you
should always leave at least one
door (for example, one or both
front doors) "unlocked" when driv-
ing.
The doors are opened from the in-
side by turning the handle to the
rear.
The ventilation windows for
the doors are opened by unscrewing
the lock stud, after which it can be
pressed in and the handle turned up-
wards.
With the stud in the screwed-
i
n position, the handle is locked.
The rear side windows of two-door
cars can be partly opened by setting
the handle at the rear edge in diffe-
rent
positions (does not apply to
13121).
In order to prevent freezing-up of
the locks, a suitable anti-freeze agent
should be used in cold weather. If
the locks are already frozen, do
not exert undue force on the key
otherwise
you might break it. Instead,
heat it with a match or similar and
place it quickly into the keyhole.
