Malfunctions
The vehicle is equipped with a central locking system which makes it possible
to unlock / lock all the doors, the fuel filler flap and boot lid simultaneously.
The unlocking of the vehicle is displayed by the turn signal lights flashing
twice.
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
30 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically.
The locking of the vehicle is displayed by the turn signal lights flashing once.
If the driver's door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the
turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
Automatic locking
All the doors and the boot lid are locked automatically once the car reaches a
speed of about 9 km/h.
WARNING
Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
■
ised persons (e.g. children) could lock the car, turn on the ignition or start
the engine - There is risk of injury and accidents!
When leaving the vehicle, never leave people who are not completely in-
■
dependent, such as children, unattended in the vehicle. These individuals
might not be able to leave the vehicle on their own or to help themselves.

CAUTION
Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
■
against moisture and severe shocks.
Keep the key grooves clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust etc.) have a nega-
