Safe securing
The central locking system is equipped with a safe securing system.
Locking the vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automat-
ically blocked. It is not possible to pull out the locking buttons. The indi-
cator light in the driver's door flashes. It is not possible to open the doors
with the door handle either from the inside or from the outside. This acts
as an effective deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle.
•
You can deactivate the safe securing system. This is done by locking
the vehicle with the key or radio-operated key twice within 2 seconds.
•
Deactivating the safe securing system means that the warning light
next to the securing knob
flash. This is not the case, however, for vehicles with an anti-theft alarm
system* since the indicator light is showing that the system is active.
•
The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle
is unlocked and locked again.
The doors can be opened from the inside if the vehicle is locked and the
safe securing system is deactivated:
•
The door is unlocked by actuating the door-opening lever.
•
The door opens upon actuating the door-opening lever again.
