Steering lock
The steering wheel lock makes it difficult to
steer the car if it is stolen, for example. A
mechanical noise can be perceived when the
steering lock is locked or unlocked.
Activating the steering lock
The steering lock is activated when the car is
locked from the outside and the engine is
switched off. If the car is left unlocked then
the steering lock will be activated automati-
cally after a while.
Deactivating the steering lock
The steering lock is deactivated when the car
is unlocked from outside. If the car is not
locked, the steering wheel lock will be deacti-
vated as long as the remote control key is in
the passenger compartment and the car is
started.
