Mercedes-Benz 2002 M-Class Operator's Manual page 34

Each individual door and the liftgate must be locked
with the respective door lock button – the driver's door
can only be locked when it is closed.
Notes:
The alarm sounds when unlocking the driver's door.
Cancel alarm by turning key in steering lock to
position 1, or with the remote control by pressing
button Œ or ‹.
If the vehicle has previously been locked from the
outside, only the door being opened from the inside will
unlock, and the alarm will come on. The remaining
doors, the liftgate and fuel filler flap remain locked.
In case of a malfunction in the central locking system
the doors can be locked and unlocked individually.
